I'd have to say, I have OCD. Jus' look at the scoots. You NEVER see them dirty, unless I jus' rolled in. Maybe that's what I was 'hiding' when I drank. Not sure.
BUT, I could give a rat's azz, what you ride, what you wear, or how you keep, what you ride, or what you wear.
Guess I feel there are bigger fish to fry. Think Myrtle Beach. Think EPA. Think unemployed.
BUT as always, jus' MFUO. That's all.
I'm with you. I get some funny looks on a 90 degree day when I roll up to the dealership wearing shorts and a t-shirt (and of course, always my helmet). I see some dude in full leathers (including chaps) looking at me like "I''m" crazy. Fck him for even noticing me, let alone the dirty look. Just go back to looking at your fcking Doo Rags and stickers.

Just saying.

I see a lot of that on this forum as well...people asking how they think something would look like on their bike. I'm not sure why some people ask others what their opinion is whether they like a certain style of a particular product; it seems to me that they just want others to agree that they like the particular style also. When I see those types of threads I just move onto the next thread and not post my $0.02.

Then again some people on this forum are generally asking others that have a certain product that they may be thinking about buying and are asking them for their review on the product; so they can figure out whether or not they should spend the extra money to buy it...and there isn't anything wrong with that.

I do this in the UK in summer, man the looks you get tell a story. Ride in what you are comfortable with, and you will be able to concentrate more on the road than what you look like

PEOPLE have "issues" bikers are people.... there fore bikers have issues.
how others enjoy their bikes , is how THEY enjoy theirs. That's all.... the world would be a boring place if we all did the same thing.
So when someone tells you "All you bikers are the same"..... just chuckle, shake your head, and walk away.....
Enjoy your bike in your way..... and I'll do the same, but differently
