Do other Model HD riders...
Do other HD riders look down on Sporty's? Or is it just me? I thought a HD was an HD and didnt matter what kind they were... i just get a vib sometimes the bigger models tho mostly slower, give me the cold shoulder when i wave... is there any truth to this?

theres alot of the big twin riders that considers sporties less of a hd tho i do not know why. to me it is amazing performance bike it is just designed to be more sporty hence the name rather than a tourer. most riders acknowledge the bike for wat it is an awesome machine! but some will just try to make themselves feel better about themselves by putting us down. who cares cuz when i step off my bike ive seen alotta guys change their opinion im 6'3 and taller then most of the big twin riders ive come across so i can easily change their opinion of it being a girls bike. it all depends on the rider u come across most guys ive met are kool but ive come across the occasional tool time to time. jus ride it for urself and say f them! ctfs sporties rule!

I wave to everyone. But to the question at hand, a Harley is a Harley to me - I'll wave atcha any time my hands aren't busy. Then you get the nod.
At the end of the day, you gotta ride your ride, and if anyone wants to look down on it, F em.

This has been hashed a million times Big twins v sporties, HD v everything Else Don't sweat the small stuff. Ride YOUR ride and don't worry about what someone else thinks. I have owned and ridden metrics brits and hds My choice is HD . Sporty for fun and local stuff. Lowrider for comfort and distance. But the sportster is still first in my heart
i was just wondering I wave if it's a harley or not, and even when I was riding a kawi sport bike, i waved at everyone... so I dunno just was curious.

Those Geezerglide owners that do are just jealous of the sporty owners youth and lack of gut.

You think that just maybe some guys just don't like to wave??? Think that is at all possible? Or is another BS big twin vs sporster thread in order.
