I agree with most of everything here but not 100%. It doesn't bother me hardly at all if I see a bicyle rider or even a moped rider going around the block sans helmet. But the HD image thing and how some (many/all?) Harley riders get so righteous and stuff, saying that metric bikes are all P.O.S.'s, sound like sewing machines, blah, blah, and more blah. And, they go around acting as if, all of a sudden, they're "too bad" to go around wearing a full-face helmet (or any helmet). They have to go parade around with the rudest and loudest pipes, Beenie Bop helmets and brag about how all the chicks are crazy about them. You know, they say, "Hey, get rid of the metric P.O.S. and get a Harley and then chicks will be all over you, man." I find the Harley image to be more and more nauseating. I read recently that HD stock is going down the tubes and dealerships are closing down left and right. Cracks me up how some of these Harley paraphalia shops will outfit you in Harley-Davidson t-shirts, socks, (under panties?), bandanas, (tampons?), hats, gloves, vests, braclets, neckties, (toilet tissue?), everything. It's like "Hey man, we're too old for Sponge Bob, what about Harley Davidson? Yeah man, Harley, man, do the Harley-Davidson image, hee-haw, hee-hawwww."
Dude, you seem to be taking this very seriously... we all ride bikes and we all are more or less slaves to the motorcycle marketing industry... for each Harley rider that focuses too much on his image, rides without a helmet, and buys all sorts of Harley crap, I can give you a sport bike rider that does the same poser things with his stretched gixxer and ICON gear (minus the helmet in Florida)...
I don't get all the hate for Harley riders... I know a few of them and they're human just like you and me, and unfortunately the human race is crippled with idiots... riding Harley or Gixxer or Yamaha...
Just my opinion...

I think the hate was directed at the HD boys after you decided to play devils advocate posting up those 2 links :rockon: :BLAA:
lol yeah... I can provide an unlimited supply of threads like these from the Suzuki forum too though, trust me!!!! :rockon:
Nah, just having some fun. Call it hate if you want. Personally, I think the term is becoming almost meaningless. To me, it's having some fun with Harley riders, the ones really taking things way too seriously. I still will wave at a Harley rider coming from the opposite direction on a lonely highway. But, you know, it's ALWAYS the Harley rider who sometimes just blows me off and rides right past w/o any acknowledgment.
