My post I guess was about whats going on now, verses years ago. Not who is a real biker or not. Maybe what I see now I dont like. In my day if you had cutoff on you better be a club member or they would be taken off you and it would not be nice. Those who know,know what I am saying. See this all the time go buy a jeans jacket, cut off the arms, collar,put a picture on the back then they are bikers.No respect anymore, as I see it. So I am just remaining of the old days for me. So if you think your a real biker you are at least in your own mind
The difference now is for most of us our lives don't revolve solely around a bike and its what our lives do revolve around that allow us to have a bike (or several of them) and a bunch of other things "a biker" never had. A bike is a part of my life but it sure ain't my life.

Like everyone else, I see the irony of the fact that you're bitching about people in the dealership when you yourself were....wait for it....sitting around the dealership. You're getting up there in years and bitching about the younger generation. Well guess what, when you were 20, the older generations were bitching about you.

How about a ride for **** and ***, maybe some beer too. Sitting in the waiting room looking at the people in there Harley gear thinking they are real bikers. Lat year when I was a kid use to go to the shop and shot the **** get work done at the soda machine had beer in it garbed a beer and went outside maybe smoked a joint.
