Might mean something to me.

 

Ask them if they’re getting that info from their boyfriends?

 

If I ever hear this from a "Big Twin" owner, my reply will be simple: "Wanna race?" TWD

 

 

you mean on the back on the passenger pillion in a bikini? might not want to mention that

 

I spent some time on a GoldWing forum after they came out with that DCT transmission.
They do tend to obsess about HDs in certain corners of the forum.

 

" ... But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke The same cigarettes as me"

I've always thought that if you refer to your bike as "her", it's a girl bike. Other than that, who gives a flip what anyone else thinks?

 

I personally don't care what anybody thinks of the bike I ride, but I have great respect for the Sportster, so when a few morons started disrespecting the bike when it's 'demise' was being discussed, I care enough to set them straight, and anyone else reading that thread. When you think about the decades of work that went into making the Sportster what is is, and it's impressive history of winning races, and making riders happy, (male and female) the bike has earned respect. I care when people called it a girls bike, implied that something must be wrong with it (for it to be discontinued) and had a 'so what, who cares' response to the news of Sportsters no longer being made.

Normally I don't even respond to morons, but the thread was about Harley discontinuing the Sportster so I took it as an iconic event. I guess I'm a bit of an idealist....

My first Harley, purchased new. Girly, indeed.
