I told him I'm not gay, but he wont take no for an answer. Persistent buggerer.

Ya know, some days it doesn't bother me, but after 12 years, hearing the same old cliches trotted at any opportunity is just tiresome.

Kiwibiker gives me access to a very large community of motorcyclists - even our biggest scooter forum has only a hundred members - we are a minority. We face the same kind of hazards as anyone else on powered two wheelers. I value the KB forum, and just wanted to correct an oversight in the placement of the scooter forum. It has been there a long time and no one has ever asked for it to be moved. So it was just meant to be a straightforward request.

, so if we get moved or not, its not the end of the world. Seems we are considered not very serious bikers to be in off topic, just playing on that stereotype and having a laugh at that opinion.

I could say I'm none of those three, but as soon as you notice I'm a girl I'm sure you'll add a 4th option...

Bet youve ridden one, get back in the closet. Why is your bike called an unshit? Ha ha

Hair dressers wont put up with helmet hair, and pizza toppings slide off if you corner too hard.

You may also like to PM Mental Trousers (his name is in red, for he is our 2 IC) and ask the question. Good luck with your quest to find a home on here. Want me to go bat for you?

It needs moving alright.
I'd suggest jokes and humour would be more appropriate.

My bike is unshit ie: Honda quality and all that crap.
I have ridden one, it was because of that time that I stepped up to an Adults sized pair of wheels you 'Mouse wearing Meat Loving He She'....

Dont sweat it Jess. Scoots will always be picked on, I came from much bigger bikes, and I can laugh at myself riding a scoot alongside a tough harley these days. Didnt mean to hi-jack your request, sorry if I caused any offence. Was just looking to highlight the aforementioned problem, and have a bit of fun.

Ha ha, funny. I had an Africa Twin before this, just about needed a step to get onto it.

Well, you may have more cc, however I would put money on my Dragster winning any competition you care to describe
