My wife and I go out for breakfast every Sunday. The place we go is a little out of town and is a fairly big so a few clubs start their rides from there.
This Sunday as we are leaving, right in front of the door are about 7 bikes. Completely blocking the marked walkway AND the handicap spot.
I walked up to see what bikes they are and you guessed it........ a bunch of Honda Shadows.
I was going to walk back in and show these clowns my Harley membership card and tell them to move the bikes but you can't cure stupid.

Sometimes people just don't know or just don't care.
It doesn't make a difference what they ride.
At my fitness club for two days in a row a guy had his Harley parked in the diagonal area in between two handicapped parking spaces.
On the Third day I was pulling up as he was parking at the same spot.
I walked up to him and informed him that the purpose of the diagonal area wasn't for motorcycle parking but rather to leave space for wheel chair ramps.
This ******* then said "there's never anyone here in a wheelchair anyway".
I replied "that maybe so, but that's still a no parking zone".
He replied "noted" but didn't move his bike.
I let it go and when to the front desk and told the attendant that she may want to inform the guy that that was a no parking area because if I see him parked there again I was going to call the cops.
I've not seen him parked there since.
BTW; my Brother is in a wheel chair and drives a van.
He also frequents a local gym.
So you can see why this was such an issue with me.

I get your point, but what's the difference between your Sporty and a Shadow?
*********, just plain stupid people out there. these are people that were never brought up with any manners and care nothing about anyone else in the world.
Hate to say it but who is calling the kettle black,I Can say I have seen many more douchebag riders wearing Harley tee shirts and chaps than the sum of all of the others.
