Get 1000 miles in then post an update. When I've traveled to places like Philly, NYC, Boston - that East Coast vibe is not the "kinder gentler"/laid back experience. The road ain't a red carpet for bikers. Just ask the texters and pokemon players.
You shouldn't 'expect ' more than an acknowledged head bob. If your trying to talk at a light , you have to yell, so most likely he didn't hear what you were saying . So next time you are stopped at a light and another biker pulls up next to you and won't even acknowledge you, just start talking to them. Say something to get the conversation started like ; Did you just steal that rubber snake from Toys-R-Us , or do you do that at every stoplight ?? :-D
Don't be shaming the brand. We've investigated significant amounts of time and money to portray this badazz image and attitude. You can't be harshing our gig man.
maybe everyone that was rude to you was a member of a 1% er Motorcycle Club and they were merely dour because they were deep in reflective thought about how much they were like Jesus.

Um, how come you didn't ask my permission to use that photo of me?
I'm a new rider. I have about 175 miles put on my first bike, which is a 2015 softail slim...I expected car drivers to be the biggest ********, but so far, not true. One time, just riding along at decent speed, this biker comes roaring past me, coming pretty close. Not one car has ever done that. Earlier tonight, on my way to the gym, another rider comes along side. I look over and say hey, how you doing? He just looks, doesn't say anything. He revs his throttle, and takes off the moment the light turns green...I'm sure most bikers are not like that, but it's probably the last time I will be outwardly friendly. My girlfriends seems to think it was what i was wearing. A tank top and cargo pants. I'm just not a big fan of wearing leather jackets in 90 degree heat. Call me crazy. But I don't feel like having heat stroke. Maybe these dudes resented that. But then again, I see guys riding in tee shirts all the time. so i don't get it...Maybe my size intimidated them. who knows...
Maybe you should just trade your Harley in on a Honda, because as they say, you meet the nicest people on a Honda.
