Ragman.... you'll get over it when you're on the bike, some guy in a cage flies up on you, gawks at your bike, wanders in his lane and is in the way when you want to move over.

As almost every other bike I see on the road in my area is a black street glide, it really isn't much of a big deal for me. When I see a non-black street glide, I usually take notice.

Same here. I've had to back off sometimes so riders don't think I'm stalking them.

I can say I do not do that. Not that I don't notice a motorcycle but I'm not speeding up to check one out. I will speed up and slow down to check out seat covers.

I will slow down, speed up, change lanes, whatever it takes to get a good look at any motorcycle I see on the road - (preferably cruisers and touring)

Ive hurt my neck more than once trying to catch a better look at a bike going by.

The only other time I experience this phenomenon is when I spy a beautiful lady walking down the sidewalk.

Anyone else have this problem? Should I seek therapy? Is there a cure?

Have your wife go up side your head when looking at the ladies....should fix the sore neck !!!

My world stops when I hear a bike coming/going/ or sitting still. Otherwise I am pretty normal.

I have an outstanding wife. If the women are exceptional, she will point them out for me,and then make the same cryptic statement.."You know,I DID go to an all girls school ",then she smirks and says nothing more. I am scared to ask..but my imagination goes into overdrive!
