    Cool Who gives a shit!!!!!

    Have just been browzing through (for last two hours) and am amazed at how many people trashed certain bikes! Every one has a preference for certain things. I love Harleys, bourbon and Holdens, this wont stop me from hanging out with someone who likes Yamahas, beer and ford cars! Just as some prefer to ride at 160km every where others prefer to cruise at 120. SO WHAT!!!! Would be a pretty sad world if every body drank same liquid, rode same bikes and all rode at 80km. Every one is entitled to their personal preference and opinions. I PREFER Harleys as I like the way they handle and I feel one with my bike. BUT i also have a Suzuki that i enjoy as well. Im not staunch about my bikes at all. Im not an image person, dont give a shit what others think. I just enjoy my rides and being in company of people who arent image controlled. Sorry to bleat on but aftert two hours reading people rubbish others bikes my nerves were getting frayed. Each to their own I suppose.

    That's why they make different motorcycles - so you can ridicule other people who don't have the same model as you.Otherwise everyone would ride the same bike as I do.

    Rule 6(b) . A biker never disses another biker's ride.

    Don't take it so seriously. It's only a bike. If you like what you're riding who gives a monkey's whatever other people think or say.

    I'm not into the cruiser thing (sorry no real reason), but thankfully we're all different.

    Besides none of us are that important that we can't take a bit of ribbing.

    Yeah two wheels is two wheels regardless of manufacture… the only issue is the lack of comradeship most experience from the other rider, this is by all means not all and I have and continue to acknowledge all riders with varying results. Happy riding.

    First warning.

    Start proof-reading your posts, and remember: nobody on KB gives a shit who disses what bike, just so long as they do it grammatically.

    All motorcycles suck except for whatever I so happen to be riding at the time I make a derogatory comment against another brand or model of motorcycle

    Joakes aue

    I've always believed in what you've just said and I typically advocate it unless I'm taking the piss. But no one listens to me

    Of course.

    But it is the other way round for bikes.

    When they mutter away to each other when praked up, they may not diss the riders.
