Default Wierd Kieth

On every forum, there's always one wackjob that ruins it. I've found the wackjob. There's a member who goes by the name of YoDaddyKieth, who joined in September 2007, and somehow, I've immediately became his personal whipping boy.

I post in a couple of the sub-forums, and I guess I made the mistake of posting in the touring forum. The subject was crotch rockets, and the silly stuff their riders get up to, like doing wheelies on the freeway at 80 miles an hour. Usually they only kill themselves, but is some cases, they also take out 10 year-old bystanders and the like.

So, I opined that stunting on public roads--which is already an infraction--should be punished by a heavy fine, confiscation of the bike, and revokation of the riders MC endorsement. There are plenty of places to do stunting where you don't become a safety hazard on public roads.

So, loony-boy replies with:

Come on Dale Franks, get real

Guys like you think you have mastered bikes because you can hold one up and defy gravity tween stop lights.....and you think that's the limit all bikers should stop at.

I got a lesson for you Dale. Holding a bike up tween redlights is only the beginning of the experience......If stunt riders threaten you and make you feel inadequate, then park your bike......either that or learn to compete with them, but don't diss a rider who can outride you.

Let's face it, you bought a Sporty hoping it would make you appear more masculine...you were attempting to capitalize on the 'vision' and make yourself more manly looking, huh?.....well, you can tag along as long as you want and enjoy the benifits, but only as long as you don't try to place stops on the real bikers if we scare you.

I haver a good friend my age from Burma....I made a beer run to his store last night.....He looked out the window at my new bike and made a comment about how badly he wanted one....I told him to go get one....He then pointed to his almost bald dome and said he had recently spent 20K with Bosley on a hair transplant and couldn't afford the bike and that his wife would never allow it....I laffed at his wasted bucks and misdirected efforts at making himself more attractive and 'adequate'....Then I told him that 20K he spent with Bosley would have bought him a bike that would put hair on his chest....He didn't get it.

I bet neither will you.

See ya round Dale.
Now, keep in mind that this is a guy I've hardly had any contact with on the forum at all, but I've clearly touched a button with this wierdo.

Then, I get an unsolicited Private Message from him, saying:


WTF are you doing in the touring forum?

Because you added bags to your Sporty?....It don't work that way Dale....this is just like the hwy where your bike has to actually tote the load, not simply look like it will or you will be left behind....and believe me, it won't, and you will.

Go home-put your hair on-strip the bags off-and be happy you got a Sporty.......If you really want to keep up with the baggers and join in the conversation and the experience, then you gotta pay the price of admission like I did.You can park your bagged sporty next to me and hope to look like me, but don't fret or bother to keep up once I decide to roll.

What's sad is the fact you started with a Sporty and dropped tons o money in it trying to make it a bagger....For the same money you could have had the real thing.

Trust me, I got both bikes(and thick curly hair) and I know there is no way to convert either bike to the other-or you to me. Stop wasting your time and money. You only embarrass yourself trying....It's comedy, and it's sad.
Yeah. Well, it's really too bad though that thick, curly hair and a big Harley still isn't a substitute for a tiny, childlike ****.

I don't much care what people say in the forum

Geeze, all you did was suggest people who stunt and only kill themselves and others in the process should not be allowed on public roads.

That's completely sensible, also, you did NOT brag in any way or compare your riding skills to others.

His responses were a little over the top.

You know Dale... when this happened, several months ago, I made up my mind that I didn't like Yo Daddy Keith, but I know now that I made a hasty decision based on this one occurence, which I'll admit, did seem way out of line. But since then I have wittnessed him being being cordial to alot of members, even giving items away! While I do agree that his comments were rude and uncalled for, I think we all make mistakes! And unless he's been harrassing you ever since, I say "let it go" and move on!! I don't think he's a bad guy, I think you probably rubbed him wrong on a bad day!

Well, he's still doing it, as of yesterday. The guy really has some wierd thing about me.

That's why I posted this thread. He just won't stop.

I usually don't participate in threads he is an active part of. I never address him unless he addresses me first. But, for whatever reason, and however he may relate to other forum members, he just can't help himself when it comes to goading me.

A few months ago, he asked for a truce, and for a while, he responded like a normal person, but, I guess he's off the wagon again.

I have a little saying: F the Dumb S... I think that's as close as I can get on a forum... I have six other friends with bikes, only one of which is a harley, but I know they are all fun to ride. I've only been riding about 9 months now, but I think the only real mistake someone could make would be to only have vehicles with four wheels...
