Ride a Club style - Whats your age?
#21
22 and on my second rendition of a "club style" bike. Having ridden MX as a kid, lane splitting on a daily basis, and my penchant for making vehicles do things they weren't made to, I just feel like this style suits me best. Everything I put on this bike serves some sort of purpose, and IMO it just looks good...

42, same situation here... Smashing BMX, and getting chased out of every public spaces by the cops when I was on my skateboard ( no skate parks when I was growing up ). For me, I don't consider it a style, I just consider it function... "Style" is nothing but superficial noise... Most people that build their bikes this way do it out of purpose... Because its functional. Like many others I have seen on here, my bike started out going in the bobber direction, but I soon figured out how I wanted my bike to function. When I decided on a Dyna, I wasn't and still not a big fan of fairings, but one ride on a bike with one, and I knew I wanted one. The nice thing, I can have mine off in about 60 seconds, and I can still get that crazy feeling at 70+ mph like I am being peeled off my bike!

47 Years old here. Similar background as everybody else. Grew up racing BMX, riding dirt bikes, and a bit of skateboarding. Mostly BMX racing. Man, that was sssooooo damn fun. Guess that's why I really get off on the Dyna. For some reason it just speaks to me in a very similar way racing BMX did.

I'm 60 years old today!!! I have a semi club style bike, I dont quite qualify because I run low bars, but otherwise it fits the specification.
I started riding in 1968 on minibikes and in 1970 my first real motorcycle was an Hodaka Ace 100, at that time a Triumph 650 was a state of the art desert rig. Amature racing was flat track, TT, desert, scrambles, hare and hound, and something brand new to the US... Motocross.
I had a good run of it, I was racing off and on until 1991.
A prized trinket...

IMO it's not a deal breaker if your not running 'T' bars, most dyna's come from the factory looking like club bikes.

Happy BDay!!
We were always riding bikes as kids and I think my world changed when a cousin gave me an old Honda 50 when I was 10-12 and I was hooked. Rode a bunch of friend's bikes before I had the scratch to buy my own (NJ is stupid expensive when you are just starting out). After 5 Harleys, I am now a happy owner of a 2015 Fat Bob.
