I will spend my hard earned money on things that I feel are worth spending money on. Really, it is my money and not yours so please don't worry about it. There are a lot more important things to consider and worry about in life than what may or may not classify a person's social role. They are people too who have everyday problems like everyone else and really like to ride the open road and try to let daily stress roll off their shoulders.

How'd I do? You are welcome!

I spend money on my bike because If i do not, my wife will spend it on clothes, or house projects that i will end up having to complete and other BS. I like my wife without clothes and i hate honey do list. So i am Happy to donate to the cause!
Besides that... been riding for 30 plus years, pushed many a rides to gas stations and worked on them by the roadside. I think I am due...

I think I have the solution to this dilemma. What seems to be missing here is. What makes you a real biker? Maybe we should start a thread explaining this. No wait been there done that.. Uh... Never mind carry on with the discussion. I got nothin.

Hey Yellowtang is that a DOT approve helmet in your avatar? If so where can I get one of those? If I wear one of those I will have surpassed RUB status for sure.

A man had to be commited to the cause back in the day, Honda was crashing the market and the hardcore Harley market kept the faith. rub's didn't save Harley, they capitalized on it. The RUB got a bad name back in the early 90's when the MoCo made it's big comeback and didn't turn out bikes in huge numbers, 50,000 or so Big Twins and the sentiment was that wealthy 'bikers' were buying 'em up, adding a few chrome geehaws and marking 'em up, and reselling at huge profits. Not really a rider, but a wealthy 'profiler'. I stay away from making my business to judge a man, but I gotta admit, might have crossed a line when the fellas started adding the FAKE KICK STARTERS to their evos. Fake return spring and everything but again, to each his own.
