Oh, man.....put whatever the hell you want on your bike and if someone makes a stupidassed comment, you tell them to go ride their own ~ IF they even have one.
Just make it be you!
Fit it to your liking, and the hell with everyone else. Thats the whole point.
Good luck with your 1st. I know it won't be your last.
Hey man, do what you want. And before you ask...the following things are considered gay according to a few on this forum...
Makes for comical reading...
- Zipper boots...gay footware
- doo rags...gay hats
- cut off shirts...village people gay
- any HD gear (because it's made in China)....lots of gays in China
- the new slogon "screw it-let's ride" and associated bandana...gay theme
- chain wallets...gay bling
- any reference to the "wild hog" movie...gay ****
- reflective vests...that's like a gay billboard
- ridin' on the back of your buddies bike (this one is a huge 'gay' maneuver--and will result in a thread lock-down by the end of the night)
- waving to other bikers--fahgetaboutit...real hardcore dudes don't even look at anyone else--it would otherwise be a gay move
- asking a question before doing a 'search' prior to...absolutely gay
- not changing your own oil or wrenching you own stuff...what are you gay...buy some tools!
- not riding in the rain, only riding in fair weather, or riding just on the weekends--"big no-no"...might as well sing showtunes!
- riding with the local HOG group...they are all gay
- tattoo's on skinny arms or HD related tattoo's...straight up--GAY
etc etc etc etc etc
Best of luck...and oh ya, if you get called a Pirate...that's not a good thing...probably because you violated on the things listed above!!
Putting whatever tickles your pickle (or blows your skirt up for our female readers) = cool
Worrying what other people are going to think about what you put on your scoot = uncool
I have a lot of skulls on my bike. I like them and they look cool. I guess not as cool as two years ago when every designer t-shirt had skulls on them.
