Brand segregation

[Babelfish]

On the way home a bimmer with fark off paniers blipped past around the line of traffic I was in and as I fell into formation and amused myself with some follow the leader, it got me thinking....how safe an assumption is it that only blokes over 50 think a beemer is something cool to ride, only hoony louts like the idea of caning a gixxer, nutters cherish the whole kawasaki thing (and from recent proof, KTM thing), middle-of-the-roaders take up the Honda badge and pre-beemer oldies warm up on Ducatis?

Thought so.

Thanks, carry on :mellow:

[Babelfish]

Shit I missed a few...theres the wolf in sheeps clothing people on triumphs (the new triumphs....the old ones are ridden by hairy fuckers....and the blokes are usually hairy too), the metrosexuals on vespas (I know, not really a bike but thought I'd include them cos gay guys shouldnt be omitted from forums) and posh gits on yamahas

[Denniso]

I think that you should note that BMW boxer riders are the biggest perverts , coz who would want to ride a guzzi with saggy tits ? What about us motard riders we're just happy people who know how to have fun after all having both wheels pointing the same way gets a bit boring. Harley riders , who wants to ride a overweight status simple (bad spelling for a reason).

[Babelfish]

Super retards speak for themselves actually :drool:

Love the saggy tits vision though! :yes:

And harleys? Suit wearing fat blokes that keep their grotty leathers outside so they feel like a propper dropkick before driving their tractors :shifty:

So I ride a Suzuki with the model designation SG as opposed to GS(XR). What does this make me?

And I thought one of my mates (early fourties) wanting a Goldwing trike was bad...

A bloke once said to me...'' fuck did your mother knit you''?....guess you could be right on the Triumph thing. Dont know about being 'posh' tho...i also owned a Yamaha.....sooooo tell ya what i want, what i really really want, want you to be my baby....:wari: damn see what you started now!

[DMNTD]

...umm, not in a million years this kid...

[Beemer]

I have to disagree! While it is true that most Beemer riders are older, that's mainly because they're so bloody expensive the young can't often afford them! However, in my life (and I'm under 50), I've owned a Suzuki, BMW and now another Suzuki. What does that say about me?

[Pixie]

Some people don't give a toss about cool.
They ride bikes that serve Their purposes,not others perceptions.

Hey, if you dont ride what I have mentioned you obviously dont count and are invisible to the proper riders on this planet. Just have a look at the characteristics I have noted and buy the matching brand, you'll feel better. :mellow:

[Storm]

Bugger. I dont fit any of those categories. Oh well, looks like its just me on my own from now on. Pffft :bleh:

[98tls]

After 25 or so bikes one ive never owned is a BMW........passed a few :shutup: looking at some of the new ones i wont rule out owning one in the future though.

[Babelfish]

Hey, I definately havent ruled out a bimmer to match my zimmer....and arthritis and incontinence :drool:

[JimO]

what about a italian bike with a japanese motor......where do i fit in

[MVnut]

Like your avatar jimjim:yes: ..........what about a BMW R90S

[Beemer]

We'll have to start our own little SG club!

[Storm]

Thats right! Full of people who sit on thin vinyl covered planks, dislike fairings, and love the single life! Viva la revolutione!!

I'm pleased you didn't say I love sitting on a thin vinyl plank - ouch! And my husband may be a bit displeased about the loving the single life comment!

I know your top item on the "pimp my ride " list is fixing said seat, and I was refering to your previous sig/title/whatever it was that said "married, but love singles" So tell Andy not to come looking for me with the axe please:D

I don't wear a suit, ever, I ain't fat and I'm looking forward to meeting you.

You want to ride a vespa then me thinks :dodge:

Thats why I want a Beemer....and I am 28

You wear cordroy pants too eh? Flannelette shirt? Cardigan?

[mnkyboy]

You wear cordroy pants too eh? Flannelette shirt? Cardigan?

Nope, none of the above. It's not about being old and nana-ish, It's about comfortable touring for me and my misses.

I just noticed that my quote had disappeared, time to fix that! Funny you should mention Andy coming after you with the axe - he's actually outside now, using said axe to chop wood!
