Why does other bikers both harley or other riders call me "old man", "senior citizen" or other old person related names just because I ride a street glide?
Im 32 and does not see myself as being that old. I have been told that the bike with the batwing faring and the bike color (red hot sunglo) is pure old guy motorcycle.
Have I bought myself a senior citizen bike????? Have others heard the same about their street glide or other touring bike?

If you don't like being called 'names'......try riding a Sportster.
Just tell them that at least I'm not on a girls bike. Then get your cain out & walk like an old man & call them sonny. By the way I don't think that all the other bikes are girls bikes or that the touring are old farts bikes. But once you ride a bagger, it's over, that's all you care to ride, well for me that's how it worked for me.
Well, I guess when they grow up and strong like the rest of us they will finally be able to hold a geezer bike upright. But for now they can ride only what they can handle.
Yep I have a Geezer Glide and proud of it. I have been proud of all of my bikes in the past.I just Thank God for letting me stay alive long enough to enjoy geezerhood and all of the perks of it.
