OK. You don't get it. You're new here. That's OK.

Around these parts, cruiser riders don't bag sprotsbike riders, and sportsbike riders don't bag crusier riders.

Except in special circumstances.

Like when someone gets really pissed off about something.

But first you have to have gone on a bunch of rides and have a bunch of your fellow crusier/sprotsbike riders ready to back you up if you're going to do that, so that you can start a proper flamewar.

The tone of this thread is, therefore, a little out of line.

As you were.

Why do Cruiser riders insist on incorrectly spelling "Sports Bikes" as "Sprots Bikes"?

probably because they are dislexic now, after riding Sportbikes in the past :lol:

[Bonez]

When they hit something they go "SPROT!!!!"

[Tank]

I dont know why you are complaining.

I looked it up on urbandictionary.com:

sprot

adj. A combination word made of super + hot.

"Man that chick is sprot"

[Swoop]

Sadly, the KB dictionary has yet to be compiled and added to the FAQ's section.

It's been compiled. I've just had the year from hell. I'm planning to get back to work on things very soon.

Good reply...using two other examples of "KBisms"
Newbies have to learn the lingo

[scumdog]

Note the spelling in jrandoms first post on this thread.

THAT is proper KB spelling. (sometimes known as 'speeling')

It really should be an official New Zealand language, like Te Rio, Sign and English.

Maybe we can make it an election issue! :banana: Cheers John.

Te Rio, KB. def.; speaking Maori whilst wearing a thong.

:lol: :clap:

Gosh...you oldies are being a little harsh on us newbies! :p :dodge:

We're learning the KB ways as fast as we can you know...:yes:

The only "cruiser" I know who says sprotbikes abundantly is Master Hitcher, and heaven forbids I should imply he is dislexic! :shit: :rofl:

I think it's actually quite a cute term, so I don't mind...

[James Deuce]

Mr Hitcher is most emphatically not a cruiser, nor even a crusier.

[Kittyhawk]

Lol there are much better things to think about than how one word is spelt.

Sprot ya later..

[James Deuce]

Think, "Rio de Janeiro", not Bondi.

[Skyryder]

Sprots is Torps spelt backwards. They have the speed we have the bang, "ya know it makes sense Rodders."

Rio?
"I'm hearing the light from my window
I'm seeing the sound of the sea
My feet have come lose from their moorings
And I'm feeling quite wonderfully free
And I think I will travel to RIO....."

(Name the artist...)

Mike Nesmith?

Mike Nesmith?

Yep - you must be old to know that!:lol:

[janno]

Mike Nesmith's Mummy invented twink. True.

Another KB custom. To veer wildly off topic, preferably withing the first few pages of postings.

[Daffyd]

Can you name the first group he was with, and the group he formed when he split from them? I can. :woohoo:

The Monkees - and then Mike Nesmith and the First National Band??

[pzkpfw]

I checked once, and the "sprot" license plate is already gone.

Quick rider?

Go to the top of the class. And collect a sweetie.

"Torps" is a derivation of "Turps" (NZ slang for booze), which sprots seem to consume in great quantities whenever possible. Perhaps to numb the pain while riding one.

Yep, I prefer to know my balls have an adequate blood supply.

Jandals. Grrr.

Whatever happened to sk8r_boi?

[Matt_TG]

I hope you lot all get red infractions for taking the thread off topic :P:P

Sprot is short for sprout, which most people relate to brussel sprout, the muscles from Brussels is Jean-Claude Van Damme, who is short and stocky in nature but all tone and can pack a punch. A bit like a sports bike, really :)
