Some simple ways to earn the respect of the grizzled curmudgeons.
Scope out where the older badasses hangout. Surreptitiously (never use that word in front of them - it's a fancy RUB word) take photos of them and do your best to clone their appearance head to toe.
Step 2 is invite 2 of your wimpiest newbie buddies who ride to this same hangout. Then after they order their "virgin daiquiries" or whatever other appletini style rub drink comes out of their foolish newbie ***** mouths - YOU BUST EM BOTH RIGHT IN THE CHOPS WITH A SET OF BRASS NUCkS SCREAMING ABOUT HATING NEWBIE RUB PUSSIES!!.
Step 3, if you still don't get the respect you so rightly crave from your grizzled betters... invite one more (new) unsuspecting RUB buddy to the same bar, and this time post knuckle duster beat down, you drag him up and down the street tied to the back of your stripped down rat bike!!
If that STILL doesn't get you their respect, you are **** out of luck and may have to wait for father time to grizzle you up appropriately and repeat the cycle in 20 years.

At 65 I wonder what the ones I'd consider old timers said about our generation, likewise I wonder what today's newbies are gonna say to the their newbies when they get old?
I vaguely remember the old timers when I was in my 20's and as cocky as I was back then, I kept my mouth shut when they were around.

When you've put about 10 years in on dirt before you started on the street. (Now we know you know how to ride.)
When you've built a bike yourself from the frame up, preferably in your kitchen. (Now we know you can wrench it).
When you've spent at least 3 of your formative years with only the bike as your transportation and have actually ridden in snow on multiple occasions to get to work. (Now we know you're not a douche trying to look 'cool' on your Harley.)
Also helps if you paid your dues on either a Pan, Shovel or at very least an Evo at some point. (Instant respect for those who've ridden a Pan, Knuckle, or Flathead as daily transport.)
When you've accomplished these things come see me, I'll buy you a beer and tell you you're in the "my respect" club.

Remember on a job a few of us early 20 somethings talking the usual smack about a gal that got picked up at the bar the night before , and the cigar chewing oldster sitting off to one side commented .
