Buy A Harley, CHANGE your lifestyle??
#204
Ok, It irritates the crap out of me when someone, 2 people at work, buy a harley, in this case a pair of trikes, and think they are total bad asses. I mean litterly overnight they went from polaris snowmobile riders, and honda quad riders to a "bad *** biker" She even went a got a freekin tattoo on her lower forearm.
And when she hopps on her trike, her elbows go up, her back arches, she lights up a cigarette, and puts on her best bad *** look.
Total posers. Ive been riding bikes all my life, and have been on a harley for a while now, but I havent gone nutso over having a harley. Yes I give the metric guys crap, but they dish it back.
The other day I was in a dealer who had 2 stores, metric, and Harley. This dude came inn litterally wearing a pair of dress shorts, flops, and a golfers polo. Must have had cash cause while I was buying my Ultra he bought a street glide, a leather coat, a bunch of shirts, chaps, gloves, and boots. An overnight transformation.
Im sure he was gearing up for Sturgis, or Algona or something just so his ego could feel warm and fuzzy.
Kind of a rant here, but man I wishthe POSERS would just stick to the leadwings,

Brother I've been watching that happen since 1985 and the Willie G explosion , I've seen towns full of instant barney bad asses soon as they got that bike . It isn't an accessory that comes with peeps you need to earn it .

First of all--before I rant, I gotta say--NO WAY IN HELL can you be "Badass" on a trike. You're more "Badass" on a Vulcan or a Goldwing than a trike. I'd rather be one of those pickle puffing pole smoking bicycle jerkoffs with the spandex shorts or a scooter dork than ride a trike. I'd buy a metric cruiser & festoon it with "Live to Ride" crap & Willie G stupid skull **** before I'd ride a trike. Hell, I'd ride a ROCKER before I'd ride a trike (OK I lied about THAT one!) A trike says "I can't ride a motorcycle" for whatever reason about the owner. Just like a Prius says "I'm a douchebag" about ITS owner. Now, before you trike owners go & get your skivvies in a snit,let me state,EMPHATICALLY & PAREGORICALLY, that there's absolutely NOTHING wrong or degrading with being physically unable to hold up a bike,but ADMIT IT,dammit, & stop tryin' to be something you aren't or cannot be. Like those fat chicks who call themselves "BBWs" 'cause they refuse to accept the fact that their rotundity is most likely their fault. If I couldn't ride anymore, I'd get a Corvette convertable. **** on a trike for me, but,well, if you like 'em,hell,go ahead & ride one!
Now--as far as yuppies posing bikes--WHY THE MOTHERFRIG DO YOU GIVE A LOAF?? It's their $$, and last time I checked, America was kinda sorta a free country (don't see THAT lasting much longer) Remember Frank Zappa's famous line: SHUT UP & PLAY YUR GUITAR!!
Well--STFU & ride!!
BTW Frenchy--how come no mention of me & my "Pissed off angry mufuh misanthropic hate the world obsessed with feces & sex" posts? I feel slighted!

I bought my first Harley in 1991 ( imported an 89 Sportster from the USofA ) and have owned later on a Ducati 907IE, Suzuki TL1000S, Kawasaki Meanstreak, again a Sportster ....and ride now since last year my Bones ( girlfriend has a Streetbob ).
We are both "white" collars, are definitely no "real" bikers, but love to go out on our bikes and yes we do wear some Harley clothing ( which I bought/imported from China as this is really cheap ).
We certainly haven't changed our lifestyle, and definitely don't feel the need to join any kind of club or whatsoever, as we simply like to cruise around just the 2 of us.
I love my Harley, but in the past have also enjoyed my other bikes....so why should a "brand" change my life ??? No way this is gonna happen !

Crossbones? Why not Harley FXSTSMF "Smiling face" instead of Crossbones? Why does everything always have to be "BAAAAAD"? Same with these stupid metal bands--Disturbed,Avenged sevenfold,Anthrax.Alice in Chains,etc. Why not "Alice in a Pink Nightie?" Instead of "Disturbed", why not "Happy"? Why don't these douchebag white trash ******** get fluffy bunnies instead of Pitbulls? This crap really pisses me off. Everyone wants to be "Bad". Well, VAFFANCUL "bad"! No wonder the older I get, the pisseder I become.

AND THAT'S ANOTHER THING--Why all these stupid bike names with negative connotations? I mean--Kawasaki "Meanstreak"? How can rice be "mean"? Why is everyone always trying to be "badass"? Why can't they call the bike Kawasaki "nice disposition"? Or Yamaha "Warrior"? Why not Yamaha "Lover"?

see it as a spectrum. "biker" on one end "weekend warrior" on the other.
There is a lot of room in between those two though. Every story is unique not every one comes into a Harley, or rides a Harley, by the same means.
