BIKER or BIKIE by definition!

[Rogue Rider]

I here the term of context used frequently, however there seems to be some confusion around the rationalization of the words.

Here is an easy understanding for those who lack the intuition to decipher...

Biker:
1. Rides all the time
2 Rides in rain, storms, sleet, snow, ice, thunder, and anything God throws at them.
3. Doesn't own or drive a car on a regular basis. Motorcycle is primary mode of transport.
4. Has a motorcycle that has at least 4 performance or custom modifications.
5. Showers and bathes as minimally as possible, usually resembles cologne of a urinal or cauliflower.
5. Wears the same biker clothes every ride, no matter the condition, the rougher the better.
6. Doesn't ride Japanese or of asian decent motorcycles. aka rice burners. Biker acceptable rides may include: Harley Davidson, Triumph, Norton, Victory, Choppers, and Moto Guzzi.
7. Identifies themselves with grunts and cavemanistic noises.
8. Generally speaking, anti social and nocturnal creatures of habbit.


Bikie:
1. Everything a Biker is not!

This is the second one, and yes its a bit of salt in the wound....... It is largely based on the historical fact that bikers were birthed out of the era of the 1940's towards the end of the war with the formation of the "Motorcycle Gangs" Bikers were all lumped in the same stereo type, as if you looked like a biker, smelt like a biker, then one must be a biker.
Bikie, per name sake is of european origin, a more cultured name with a similar stereo type but more depictive of racers than Biker Gang origin.
If you called a biker a bikie, one would have received a fist full of knuckles to the chin, cheek or face more than likely. Any line of association was vigorously rebuked.
Doesn't worry me personally, but just stating the obvious really lol....... If one wants to be a biker, just conform, or vicer versa.

[PrincessBandit]

I'm neither. I'm a girlie on 2 wheels. I smell nice, I wear makeup and always wear clean undies (except if I get a huge fright while on said 2 wheels - then 2 of those things don't apply...)

[Fatt Max]

I'm a fat bastard with a Hyosung......can I play...???

Thought bikie was an aussie term. Never heard it used in the US or UK.

2 Rides in rain, storms, sleet, snow, ice, thunder, and anything <STRIKE>God</STRIKE> Mother Nature throws at them.

Corrected #2 for you.


It's all bollocks though.

[Berries]

Bikie, per name sake is of european origin.
Is it bollocks. Bikie, boatie, surfie and a whole load of other wanky terms are antipodean.

So thats where I've been going wrong all these years...:shit:

People been calling me fattie, stinkie and dummie for years, git fuck all to do with riding a bike.

Mind you, the missus calles me 'Snakey' now and then, mostly after a dozen beers and 2 bottles of sav gawd bless 'er....

.....thats got nothing to do with bikes, it's all about riding.......I need tea....

[Rogue Rider]

I am neither a Biker or a Bikie, instead, I prefer my namesake assigned to me, I am a Rogue Rider.
I am my own breed of nut job, I like speed and wheelies, but most of all I love tight corners, tighter the better, in hills and or any scenic place I can find.

My favs are Takaka Hill, Waipoua Forrest, East Cape, Kaitaia Hills.......

If you like the title Biker or bikie, good on you, just bare in mind, there is a rep to go with it and I laugh at wannabies.......... especially the rich nobs dun up in leathers and all the bling to be cool and free. All they do is look........... outa place and unschooled.

:killingme

I think the name Pillock fits you better.

[SMOKEU]

I'd rather use a car to get from A to B because I'm not stupid enough to leave my bike parked everywhere for cunts to fuck with it. Does that make me any less of a biker, because I really care about my pride and joy?

[Rogue Rider]

Mate, you're awesome, wish I was as cool as you, maybe if the sun shining out you ass wasn't so bright you could lead the man race to freedom......... butt monkey!

[Katman]

Don't shoot the messanger.

I'm not the one who created you dumb as fuck.

I'm just pointing the fact out.

I dunno, it's all a matter of how you feel. Some people don't like there bikes to get wet or dirty so they leave them in the glass case in front of their office..... Personally, my bike is simply a mode of transportation to get me from A to B. If one needs a car to feel safe and secure, perhaps they should live in an air vacuum or be cryogenically frozen for their existence.

I ride in the rain, and I don't mind getting my bike dirty, but I just don't like other people touching it without my permission. Cagers are often like a kid in a candy store when they see a bike, and they can't help getting their greasy paws over it.

Then there are the vandals, just look at other threads in this forum in relation to that subject.

Im just a fella that rides if and when I feel like it, simple really. For the first time ever I am totally agreeing with Katman on this one.

What cage should I buy?
I'm looking at buying a cage that can carry 2 dirt bikes, but I'm not sure if I should buy a van or a ute. I don't have any room on my property to store a trailer. I'm looking at spending $2000 the the very most, so what should I buy? I know I can't expect much for that price.

Don't seem to fit the profile of a "Real biker"

My mate got a Toyota flat deck ute on trademe for $2500, it takes 3 XR250's fairly easy. Looking at the ute, it was pretty good buying. Some mean deals on trademe thats for sure.

So I should ride a dirt bike that is not road legal on busy public roads?

[zeocen]

I'm personally not so self-conscious that I would need the assertion of labelling myself to any particular breed of motorcycling appellation, or to go so far as to make up my own, just to satisfy my individuality and "badboy" status.

In summary, OP is a fag.

Way back when ... "Bikie" was the media term in Godzone for the patched club members ... the rest of us prefered the term "Biker" as it seemed more about ridig bikes ... but who gives a shit ...

[Banditbandit]

You wouldn't have a fucking clue.

Just when I think you might not be so bad after all, you prove yourself to be a complete arsehole ... do you have to work at it or does it just come naturally ?

Bikie is a term used in NZ and OZ to describe motorcycle-riding gang members.
Biker is an American term to describe someone who rides a motorcycle.
Simple.

[DMNTD]

I'm not one for labels, but motorcyclist would be the closest for me.
Some people ride bikes to 'define themselves'...sad really

[bogan]

[Mom]

KISS - ginger kind, better noms, kind of like a label for one who rides a motorcycle really.

KISS - motorcyclist.

[Big Dave]

'Bikee' is a 1%er in the Daily Mirror.

Biker - bloke in black leather

Motorcyclist - bloke in Cordura.
