The bikes we ride

[Clivoris]

my penis is so small i bought the biggest extension i could fathom.... hence my current steed

What about those fullas that overcompensate with two bikes? Definitely small man handle syndrome.

Maybe the bikes we have actually reflect the person/personality we WANT to be, have or type of image we want to project to others? I dunno...... maybe thats too much to think about for 10pm on a Wednesday night.

[Pwalo]

do the bikes we ride reflect on us and our personality?
and the way we choose to modify them and how we ride them?
what do you think?

Mine's blue and clean, so I'm not too sure what that says about my character.

How's the 500F going?

[gijoe1313]

Yeah, everyone's an individual - what is common is the affinity we feel and have for our two wheels of freedom. For me, the little ol'Hornet does reflect my personality - when I was humming and haaing, tyre kicking for my first ride, I was searching for that "feeling" (I really on my intuition a lot that way!)

It was red, it felt right, it had some trick and blinged bits on it ...

Mine was mass-produced and is grey and black and has plastic stuff bolted to its frame to make it look 'good'.... I guess it's all about perception. No I haven't had plastic surgery.

its going ok so far, front forks have 15mm of travel after sag!
got some race-tech's on the way though, its already a few mods done.
i will reveal all later.

[vifferman]

I don't know.

But I suspect it has mostly has it to do with money. And that.

[Bytor]

So there is no way I'd ever own a GSXR600,that'd be like voting National,I'll do it my way thank you.

hey my gixxer might be blue but I don't vote for the blue rinse brigade

[Kupe]

Yep, its definitely about the money. Then there are the limitations of being fresh on the scene and only being able to choose a 250 or less. My 250 Kat isn't my first choice, but it sure is a sweet ride for the $$$.

[pritch]

We all have our little fantasies and there's nothing wrong with that. If you are riding a Repsol Honda or a Rossi R6 you aren't in much of a position to argue otherwise. As long as you aren't hurting anybody what the Hell?

As the years go by people sometimes have to make their choices according to what they can ride without aches or pains. (No sprots bikes for me alas.)
Maybe one day I'll even have to consider a cruiser... :-(

[MattRSK]

I will ride what I damn well want to ride!

[Bonez]

Well, my penis is old and withered and so are my bikes. So I guess it's true, they are a reflection of their owners. No pretentions here. Oh well another may be entering Bonez's shed shortly (yes a shed no ponsy g@#$% thing on this property). Ok you can only ride one at a time but having a few matches up with my multi-personnality disorder. Now where did I put those meds?

[Rewalise]

I think the fact that we ride a bike at all determines our personallity. Just my thought.

[Goblin]

Well both my noble steeds are old and crusty, although the 400 is looking more like mutton dressed as lamb. My CBR is aptly named the "anti-bling" which kind of reflects me. I dont go for all this flashy bling bling nonsense.
