Get with your buddies and go for a looooooong ride. After the FIRST 600 mile day, see how they are doing. After the SECOND 600 day ask how they are doing. There will be NO THIRD 600 mile day. Then let them ride your "old mans" bike. They will cry when you ask for it back.

Why does other bikers both harley or other riders call me "old man", "senior citizen" or other old person related names just because I ride a street glide?
Im 32 and does not see myself as being that old. I have been told that the bike with the batwing faring and the bike color (red hot sunglo) is pure old guy motorcycle.
Have I bought myself a senior citizen bike????? Have others heard the same about their street glide or other touring bike?

I dont really care what others think, I love the SG its a sweet ride. Just wondered if it was the general opinion about touring bikes.
Guess its not the case :-) glad to hear that. Guess they just wish they have such a fine bike.
And to Johan96... I live in Malmö but I am danish and work in Denmark.

If guys are just yankin' your chain for fun, it really wouldn't matter what you ride -- they'd find something to rag on. Your post makes you sound like the guy people like to pick on to get a reaction. Trust me, if you rode a Hayabusa or Ducati, they'd give you grief to. Try not to be so concerned with the opinions of others. That guy you see on a 150 cc Vepsa has more self-respect...

Street Glide an old man's bike? No way. Everyone knows an old man's bike is either an Ultra, or any touring bike with "all" the luggage attached. 
When I want to feel young, the tour pak stays on the rack in the garage. The shield comes off if I want to feel like a teenager.
Do you ride it slower than the speed limit in the "fast lane"? Maybe that's what they're getting at.
Screw 'em, they have no taste.
