Today I learnt a lesson that i am not sure I can explain properly. I know I get uptight when people on here trash me for my choice of bike but....

Last night I got a text from a Kber I know well telling me a fellow KBer is in horspiddle. Not bike or crash related. This KBer I consider my friend and a damn good bloke.

Went to see him today and you know I hope beyond hope that it cheered him up. Didnt matter what bike I ride or anyone else in the room. Just meant that we were there for him.

my own personal opinion is i dont care what you the fact you ride is more important, we share the same passion and both know that feeling you get when riding.
plus there is nothing wrong with your type of bike i think its a sexy beast! :2thumbsup

It's a bit like siblings that are always fighting between themselves.
God help an outsider that tries to hurt either one. The other will stand by his/her sibling no matter what.

Thats what mates are for,my best mate rides a Harley,lives,eats breaths,sleeps Harleys,i dont understand his passion for them but then again to be his mate i dont need to.I love the inevitable bullshit that gets flung about at rallys,ie jap rubbish etc and i give as good as i get.They all have 2 wheels and we all arrive at the same destination having enjoyed how we got there and thats all that really matters.Good on ya for being there for your mate.

I've made this point before, we are a community within and outside normal life. We owe it to each to be kind occasionally.

Good luck to your friend, hope he pulls through okay.

It did! I talked to him tonight, he did not mention your Chromed Beast once!

I agree though, dont listen to the teasing, most of us dont mean it :dodge:

So how come you get uptight about the bike business anyway? Your choice, and if you love it, and I bet the bystanders do when you ride up, then you have made the right choice.

I'm not too sure about this lesson 101 thing, are you just saying no matter what you ride, when someone is in hospital, it doesn't matter?

Crikey I'd say it doesn't matter anytime and if they give you stick about it, just laugh and assume it is jealousy speaking, or they're just crazy - that explains most things with bikers.

When are you teaming up with Finn then?

You know sometimes people make fun not to be cruel but because they care. Its a bloke thing not being able to show that stuff.
