Was just in my local cafe and I'm sitting there reading the paper when some guy comes in the door and even without looking I KNEW he was carrying a helmet and wearing leathers. I had to really concentrate not to look up and give him a big friendly grin. This might be ok if you're a guy but for a girl it can cause all kinds of trouble!

Now I'm planning to get my own bike this is happening more and more... I hear a bike coming down the road and I forget the sentence I'm in the middle of. My head turns involuntarily and I watch the bike until it's out of sight! Am I turning into a Biker Perv?!

All the bikers in my neighbourhood must think I have some kind of bike fetish. I think I need to get myself a T-shirt that says
"it's not YOU, you fool! I'm only interested in your BIKE!"

I think that sort of thing is pretty normal for most bike enthusiasts eh. I can hear bikes coming from a long way and can sometimes tell what they before I can see them. I'm always checking out bikes on the road or parked somewhere or in shops.

I guess Im just a bike slut really, I'll ride just about anything :)

If a chick checks me out while I'm carrying a helmet, I assume it's because I ride. But that's probably because I'm an ugly son of a bitch. ;)

Hmm for me it's 'vtwin mmmm head turns' 'high pitched revs more than a boy ricer - head turns must be an il4' 'big fuggin thumper - head turns'. etc etc.

I love hearing a bike going hard at the main road above my house too, got a big smile hearing some 2 stroke thing once going nuts and then sirens following 30 secs later, muahahahaah!

When I see a biker it's look at helmet hmm pricey/not pricey then look at leathers 'are the sliders used' then what brand etc etc. Just out of interest and in no particular order.

And yeap I'll ignore whoever I'm talking to if a bike goes by.. it's normal lol.

hey bud,
its ok to b friendly, as most bikers iv met so far r ok.
not every biker female or male thinks because u smile at them or say hello, you want to take them home.
its the best way to meet fellow bikers, iv met some top lads & lasses in my travels around NZ sometimes only because iv spoted a helmit or jacket and said hello.

Relax, your OK with us old guy's we are only interested in "your bike" too.

Even if we could see "you" properly we wouldn't know what to do with you, so you are all right, we are all just focused on the bikes!

Gawd it's hard enough just remembering how to ride the bike without filling our heads about riding anything else.

I get told off for staring at people but I'm only trying to see if I know them from some place! (memory takes a bit of reving up)

Then if you speak we probably wont hear you because our ears are full of Finn's dreaded ear type nasal hairs!

Yeah us old guy's are safe bike pervs too, when we can remember. :blip: Yeah right. :innocent:

Always say "Hi" to anybody that looks like they have just got off a bike - most times just start conversation by simply saying "Had a good ride" or "Nice bike etc"

Although yesterday it was "I stopped you because of your speed, any reason for it?":doh:

Looks like we're all guilty of it at some point or another.

I always do it at work when someone buys a bike magazine... "So, what bike have you got?"

Well, speaking from a blokes perspective, it's abit hard to check out whats behind the helmet till it comes off. Apart from a few more obvious lumps, it's pretty hard to tell a bloke from a bird till at least some gear comes off.

So, yeah, check out the bike first, what's wrong with that. :)

My wife tells me I can look but not touch. I'm pretty sure she's talking live females here and not the bike???? I like touching bikes, especially the throttle.

20th June 2006, 06:57
I used to get annoyed at being stared at but now it doesn't bother me... if I smile back at someone they will generally approach me and ask about the bike and I am friendly cos I reckon I have to do my bit to promote us bikers as being good people! I'm pretty sure there are some people out there on Buells now cos of me!

Has anyone ever checked out a biker that they thought was of the opposite sex and then realised that it wasn't?

"Um, yeah, I was just looking at your, um...bike..."

the leather screaming as he tried it on... or maybe it was him grunting like a pig, trying to get it on :crazy: :sick:

Common bond thing - if you ride a bike - easy to get into conversation with the other rider. I met alot of KB's (before I joined the site) just through riding on my own out there. The only ones that aren't so friendly are the harley riders! I've been in country pubs and walked in on my own - and at times they barely nod. I'm quietly saying to myself - get a real bike. I'm gradually getting less shy at approaching other bikers. Oh I miss my bike - it was written off a couple of weeks ago and I'm still waiting on the insurance co. to pay out. I'm bored shitless without a bike.

nothing like the sound of a big harley or any harley for that matter to get my attention but yea will look at a bike passing to see what it is if its what i thought etc but dont think i check over the rider as much as the bike .... if its a cool bike ill check the rest of course !
