Sorry but think you got it wrong here. You don't post up about a shovel you are now the owner of and then come on to a twinkie/twincamn/blockhead forum and ask a question like his and be a poser.
Not sure I would have come in through the back door like he did, but it seems like many of you got your "panties bunched up" for naught.
Yeah there are folks who come on here and get the minimum post and post the obvious bull$hit propositions, but so far I have seen no one with shovels or pans who have posted up and shown their bikes who have turned out to be the folks you so easily hate upon.
So....scratch your a$$, get glad, and find that happy place...it's all
good!

Alright...just poking fun.
The "bikers" I admire all seem to have the characteristics.
1) Disenfranchised
2) Fiercely loyal
3) Tribal mentality (mixes well with military)
4) Nomadic
5) Pragmatism over dogmatism (not concerned bending the law)
6) Unconventional view/approach
7) Ready, willing and able.
8) A genuine lust for the road.
9) Blinders to the rest.
Broad, conceptual....I know. Maybe these are just the traits I admire.

Just ride over to your local farmers market and *** a pumpkin in broad daylight, the next day (when you get out of jail...hopefully) look what it says under your picture in the paper. I bet it will say Biker instead of Motorcycle enthusiast. Then you'll be a Biker and have proof. Hope this helps.

I hope my above post clears all this up for you
For all the grand mas, pencil pushers, mom and pop deals if you ride a Harley you are a biker. You are a badass, beer drinking, hell raising, law breaking S.O.B. and you must be stopped as you are a mennace to society.
For all us that ride motorcycles, we classify ea. other based on earnings,jewlery,costume,investment in our scooter etc, and label ea other as a poser,R.U.B ,1%, Pirate etc
I am what I am and what other people think of me is not on my list of give a dams
