I don't have a stereo and if I did, it wouldn't do me any good because the sounds inside my head are too loud to hear anything else.

People look at you because you are crazy to ride a motorcycle.
Thats it.

Excellent video schwangster... As I am a musician and someone who works frequently in a recording studio I am offended by what is out there for people to listen to. But ya know, most people don't give a damn. You just can't talk truth to a lot of people, they don't want to hear it. So they listen to their little MP3 player through tiny ear buds and think "damn," this system is kicking ***. When the reality is, they don't have a clue as to what they are not hearing.

I've found it's best to just shut up and let the masses do as they do. It beats being told "you don't know what the f*** you are talking about."

I ride a bike...it happens to be a Harley. I'm not a biker...don't want to be a biker...I don't give a crap what anyone thinks of me when I ride.

Damn, people. Figure it out. The thread title is 'harley stereo types'. Now, that can either be the type of stereo your bike has or a reference to what the stereo on your bike is able to type.

For those of you who want to prove what a bad *** you are or how independent you are please seek out a thread with the word 'stereotypes' and have at it. For the OP, a dictionary is your friend, stereotypes is a single word.

Rant over, I am now clicking my gas cap too many times and pulling my do-rag lower with my fingerless gloves.

We all make mistakes in spelling, grammer, punctuation etc., and I just thought most people knew what the OP meant but chose to play around with it. All harmless fun. Probably the OP will be more careful next time.

You're right, but using 'stereo types' twice is not a mistake. Then the 'tough guys', most of whom are clueless, only make it funnier.

In any event, my gas cap is tight, my do-rag is properly positioned and all my tattoos are spelled correctly.
