Nah, you can ride the coolest set of wheels in town and still be a dork. Just look at all the bozos lined up along the curbs in front of the local "biker" bar in town every weekend... $20,000 for a big nasty Harley-Davidson that they only ride to the bar on the weekends (if it's not raining). They spend the rest of the time polishing their chrome and keep their bike in the garage with a cover over it so it don't get dusty.

I love seeing the newspaper ads where Joe Cool biker dude is selling his prized Hog... 5 years old, only 4000 miles and never ridden in the rain! What a poser!

If you want to learn what real motorcycling is all about, spend some time riding one! Come back in a year after you've done an Iron Butt Ride, and spent time scraping the snow and ice off your windshield before you could start out in the morning. If you still want to go do some more, then you'll know what it is about motorcycling that attracts people.

one of the last freedom type things a person can do.
the wind and sun on your body.
almost feels illegal.

the sound ( Harley's only )

The closest thing to flying...Freedom and the open road.

If I have to explain, you wouldn't understand.

Motorcycles equate to freedom, in most people's eyes. I certainly felt free on mine before I wrecked it.
