It's not about labels, mileage, destinations, or bling. JUST RIDE!

Probably means he's not really into the biker lifestyle, just like to ride his bike. Kinda guy who would see someone broke down on side of road and wave as he goes by!

I get that crap all the time if I ride into work. As soon as some meat whistle walks up with that swagger and gonna tell me how it is. I reply with a big "COOL". I am on the clock so I'm not about to get into details with them. It's not a debate, it's not a popularity contest. Just goes to show you how many people get into riding not because they want ti ride but because they want friends and someone to talk to.

Not a Bud..Some dude I meet at a Harley dealer. He started talking to me and I asked him if he was a biker. He said " no, I am a motorcyclist".

I don't care, I was just curious what he was trying to say.

It is what you think it is. Everyone in here has their own opinion on this one.
Just ride!

I'd be curious about your question if you asked me that at a Harley dealer, I may say...

"No, I'm a sailor, and that Road Glide is my boat anchor...here's your sign."

That's how I see it, others will differ. We all like to ride.

Just my $.02, and no I don't need change back.
says it all for me, agree 100%
