| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/9/2008 1:11:23 AM | | I've kept quiet and listened to all the bullshit I can without saying anything. The main problem with some, not all you people that ride the wings and things, talk about how fast you fly by someone, ripping their beard off, lol. You guys want to get there as fast as you can, no matter who you piss off, weaving in and out of traffic, not giving a shit about anything or anyone other than who can hear your freakin stereo. Who cares? If you were a biker you could give a rats ass about your stereo, or layin in the curves at 100 mph. BFD, its about the ride, not how many people you pass. Its enjoying the country side, your lady on the back, the sound of your pipes. So just keep braggin about how fast you can ride, or how loud your stereo is and all that bullshit you keep talking about. And someday, some real biker is gonna be scrapin your dead ass up off the asphalt with a stick and a spoon. Thats the problem with this world, to many freakin idiots. Its not about Harleys, Honda, Ducati, Suzuki, Yamaha, it ain't the brand rattle brain, ITS THE FREAKIN RIDE!!!!!!!!!!! | |

You got about a 20% chance of him actually being someone worth a shit. Other than that, you better get used to him drinking regularly and ogling every saggy tit that gets flashed at a bike rally. Quick question....i looked all over the web, couldnt find 1 statistic sayin this....where'd you get your info?? If what you say is true, i, along with most of the "harley guys" i know are of a very rare breed.....
WAIT, I see the problem....
Oh yeah, BTW... did I tell you I'm divorced because of this kind of shit? No, I didn't do this crap. Rather my ex-wife wound up cheating with someone from my riding club. Yeah, Harley guys are great.
Your ex wife had saggy tits and cheated on you with a biker (you did say " you better get used to him drinking regularly and ogling every saggy tit that gets flashed at a bike rally", and since she cheated with a biker, and thats what they like, she musta been the perfect "saggy tit" )
Basically, your wife cheated on you and you need someone besides her or yourself to blame, so blame complete strangers because of the make and model of their bikes..... BRILLIANT!!!
hey man, my wife cheated to..... but since i own a harley or 3, and that makes me at fault for yours cheatin.....i blame you for mine cheatin.....now c'mere and lemme kick your asss | |

| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/12/2008 8:06:55 AM | oh, and harleyrainwater....i totally agree. but what alot of the "winged warriors" forget is theres alot of us that can get up and walk with their goldwings if we so choose. never ceases to amaze me how "mines better cuz im faster" became so big on the roads, guess fewer and fewer are out to relax and enjoy the ride anymore.
BTW- my heritage can spank a gold wing, and the shovel can step with the lower end sport bikes in the 8th mile...... sorry, had to toss it in there just to pissss one of em off  | |

| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/23/2008 7:15:51 PM | | I think that you should do a little more research before you make the comment that men who ride Harleys = white trash. Not only do I ride a Harley, I own stock in the company and I'm far from white trash. | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/23/2008 7:32:11 PM | | Hey I have a date to go riding with "white trash" this weekend. I'll be sure to let him know. We are in our 60's and love riding. And he was a business owner for 30 years before retiring. Guess he has to give up the Harley he doesnt fit the steretype. | |

Ugh... this subject makes me wanna gag honestly. I ride and have been doing so for over 16 years now. I have pretty much ridden anything you can think of with two wheels, Harley included. I currently ride a big fast sportbike that will top out around 190mph. HOWEVER, I get women like this who find out I ride and the first thing out of their mouth is "Oh, do you ride a Harley!?!" ME: "Uh, no. I ride a sportbike." THEM: "Oh...." Me thinking to myself: "Whatever..."
I've been around bikers for years... all types. I have found that there's basically two types of bikers: hardcore scooter trash who's lives revolve around their bike and then you have the "poseurs" who wear a tie all week and a squeaky new leather jacket on the weekends. The one thing most of them have in common is they are "sheeple" who buy in to that Harley "mystique"... the legend if you will. HD marketing loves these people because they would buy a pile of bovine fecal matter as long as it had "officially licensed by Harley Davidson" stamped on it.
Well said, and nearly all true.

Stop whining. Some people (myself included) think of riding a motorcycle as more of a sport. We live and breath for apexes. We do not grab a handful of brake when going into a corner....we roll on the throttle. Me and my buds.....all of us 45+ years old.... most all of us white collar professionals....live for the thrill of going out on deserted farm roads in New England and rip shit up for an afternoon. We do not weave in and out of highway traffic.... we leave that stuff for the posers on sportbikes. Where we ride... NO ONE is around...except for a few cows and stuff....so who are we showing off too? No one.
But yes, you are correct... it is all about "the ride". | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/24/2008 5:08:19 AM | ...just to stir the pot a bit more.... there are ***hole posers in EVERY "clique" of riders.
Ladies.....I've been in the bike business for over 20 years...one day soon I'm gonna write down a guide to the personalities attached to specific types of bikes. It'll be an eye opener.
Chapters will cover :
Where / how to find an ALPHA MALE...among riders. (assuming you are not lookin for bottom feeders.
Do you want to find "Adventure guy"? Yes, there are Adventure guys who ride Harleys, Beemers, Jap bikes..... how to look at their bike and tell if HOW they ride....etc...
How to tell posers..... riding all brands... this is like shootin fish in a barrel.
How to find and INDIVIDUAL among HD riders......How to find those HD riders who do not take a consensus amongst their buddies about the purchase of every little chrome piece ..... Also.... for the younger ladies.... how to find a guy who has a degree of individuality amongst his sport bike ridin buds.....
stay tuned....

Not only do I ride a Harley, I own stock in the company and I'm far from white trash.
Watch your stock there hoss. HD is scheduled to STOP ALL PRODUCTION of motorcycles for 2-3 months this summer. That's how phucked this industry is now. | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/24/2008 5:16:45 AM | I have had two Harleys and both were OK, but I am no longer into a closet full of Harley shirts two drawers full of black tees and Black leater everything. I still see people who look like a billboard for the company. Me I also enjoy kayaking, hiking and I can wear something without the bar & shield logo. I still ride but, I enjoy going fast and for longer distances. There are more adventures than just riding a motorcycle they are just as much fun.  | |

| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/24/2008 5:22:58 AM |
(even stock, they actually SOUND like a motorcycle.) Admittedly I passed over all the jap bikes this time, even the Harley wannbe's because they were NOT that much cheaper (a few grand) and, as much as I appreciate their 'technology' and reliability,
Dude, you're funny. Harley Wanna be's? LOL
Imagine a bike that is a cruiser....actually has functional front brakes (ya know not the wooden ones that come on HD's)......has a 47 degree lean angle....REAL forks... USD ones... fully adjustable....is a V twin, belt drive... and has 102 stamped on the side of the engine case.....has a factory kit available that doubles the torque and does not void warrantee.... has a transmission that doesn't sound like it's gonna explode when you change gears.....(Yamaha Warrior). I test drove the V-rod.....woulda bought it but the tranny positively sucks azz on it. I could have easily upgraded the brakes and suspension....but hey.... why piss money into something that has the lowest grade jap suspension bolted to it. The motor rocks!!!! Thanks to Porche who designed most of it. The HD "wanna-bee's" have forced HD to retool a lot of their tin....and (ahem) modernize...
Whaddya gonna do when the HD line goes all liquid cooled in two years?
Haaaaaaaa.... you're beloved HD's are ALL gonna be "Jap Bike wanna-bees)
Toooo funny.
For the record.... I like HD's I'm tryin to buy my buds XR-1000.... nice bike.
My only motorcycle "bias" is towards V-twins..... I love em.... XR's.....Suzuki TLR's..Aprilias....Ducatis........ love all v-twins.... | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/24/2008 5:32:51 AM | Yea..... when I finally "grow up" I'll probably grab a HD touring bike..... with the Screaming Eagle stuff installed. Awesome bike....
As of right now though... I'd be grinding through the engine cases at every corner. Gotta stick with the right "tool" for the job at hand (riding style) now..... | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/24/2008 5:45:55 AM | I have to agree with SCOTTYMAC. I lived in Hollywood, CA from 1984 to 1989 and NOBODY drove a Harley except for hardcore bikers. . . . the Hell's Angel's type. Then a funny thing happened. MOTLEY CRUE put an album out called Girls, Girls, Girls and then shot MTV Music Videos riding their Harleys. Then every rockstar on Sunset Strip bought a Harley, then every wanna-be rocker bought a Harley. In 3 short years, you could not park a car at a club because the parking lots were slammed with Harley's. It was nothing more than fashion at that time. So yes, SHEEPLE was the definitive word there. Another funny thing to consider . . . . there were thousands of guys riding Ninja's in California long before the Motley Crue craze. So if you love to ride, than good for you. If you needed a Harley to get a chick. . . . oh well, you gotta do what you gotta do. | |

| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 4/24/2008 3:56:34 PM | I was in America on a visit... the only guys I saw on Harleys were mid to late 50s, obese and wearing black leathers head to toe... and sporting white walrus moustaches. I can only give a British point of view which is:
Walrus on a bike! hahahahahahahahahah

|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/2/2008 8:52:59 PM | | Well it is some of that, but apparently a man in chaps is not an offered in the "options" package when buying a Harley...go figure. | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/2/2008 9:11:26 PM | | To each their own, but imo, i think of a harley as a sybian with wheels. None of my bikes even have a "trophy perch". Ladies, just learn how to ride your own --> LOTS more fun. | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/2/2008 9:13:51 PM | but having said that, i do agree with HarleyRainWater.
Speed is great on the track -- just keeping a cool cruising or carving pace is best for our shared roads -- whether you are one-up or two-up. | |
|
| |
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/3/2008 1:06:10 AM | im sorry lady but i just find that really superficial. when your attraction of someone is higher to him just sitting and driving a motorcycle compare to anyone else that doesnt i just find that dumb.thats just my opinion again i dont mean to sound rude or to be mean but i cant help my opinion.yours is what it is and mine is what it is too so. | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/3/2008 1:25:10 AM | Anyway, go ahead and chase that Harley man. You got about a 20% chance of him actually being someone worth a shit. Other than that, you better get used to him drinking regularly and ogling every saggy tit that gets flashed at a bike rally. Oh yeah, BTW... did I tell you I'm divorced because of this kind of shit? No, I didn't do this crap. Rather my ex-wife wound up cheating with someone from my riding club. Yeah, Harley guys are great. I'm still a biker, but I pretty much hate bikers as a whole now.
SCOTTYMAC- yer a wannabee! If you understood the lifestyle and the integrity of the brotherhood, that likely wouldn't have happened to you. But, wannabees are much more vulnerable than they percieve themselves to be. That's precisely why ya'll are just that; WANNABEES!
SPORTSTERGIRL!!! Can you drive a Peterbilt? Ya know, lots of truckers are bikers, and some of us are clean and decent gentlemen who are above-average in our craft- not just fat, masturbating freighthaulers... THAT bunch of WANNABEES does diddly-jack, while most of the guys I'm referring to are into more specialized facets of the industry... Overdimensional/machinery, high-end auto transport, etc. We are proud of our craft, and command an above average wage for our committment and ability.
Support your Local 81. Live the R&W.
Scottymac, if you don't know what THAT means, you ARE aWANNABEE for sure. Don't ask, 'cuz I ain't tellin'.

| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/3/2008 1:38:23 AM | hi hunnie, i don't think that is guys that ride harleys but guys that ride cruisers, its that is such a turn on [ for me it the smell of the leathers too ohhh yummy]. It's so nice to be snuggled up behind that special someone, with the wind in your face, the sun on your back & feeling that bike between your legs rumbling down the road. personal i love all biker, they are the salt of the earth they are mint and there are far more good bikers than bad its just they were tagged as bad boys in 60s and 70s bikers rule!!!!!!!!!!!!! my late hubby was a biker and was such a caring and loving guy he died in feb this year and had a bikers funeral his hurse was a harley [ i rode pillion to take him to his last resting place ] the company that supplied the hurse was www.motorcyclefunerals.com and the were bikers and bikes of every description behind him, some of them never even knew him but they took the time of to attend a fellow bikers funeral and will always be grateful to them for making his dream com true to have a bikers funeral love boots4852 | |

| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/3/2008 2:13:50 AM | | I have always loved bikes..scooters...harleys are the best because of the rumble, the look and the name...speed is good but cruisin is better. I'm attracted to men who sport HD's , the weekend rider, the rally's, the biker ways...they are the bestest friends that you could ever have, they have your back, the leather, the ruff exterior, but a teddy bear at heart. Ahhhh, the dream of being a biker babe ......I love the whole shabang! The RIDE!! The WiND in your hair...freedom!! When I feel a harley comin' , i get a tingly sensation all over!! | |
|
| Men who ride Harleys Posted: 5/3/2008 2:24:57 AM | and i'm especially turned on by the many men who post here..damn, where to find hot sexy men who like to boast, brag and argue about their ride...woohoo!! Think I will keep reading there is like 11 pages and 90% are men...exciting!! | |
