Too tell ya the truth, I try to look at the big picture. How did someone who rides a Harley Davidson get the stereotypical outlook about them? Well it all started with a gang of "bikers" who went around causing trouble in the public streets and since then (almost a century ago) if you ride a Harley, then you are one bad mother fugger!!
Well just like Jesse James said. He said something like, sport bikers took the place of the bad stereotypical people on bikes instead of Harley guys.
Oh well... I dont go out and do tricks and be stupid/wreckless on my bike and most of you probably dont either. But if evolution goes the same route as Harley motorcycles did, then we will someday be the BAD ASS MOFOS later on and the Harleys will be known as ignorant people who bought a society based "name brand" type of motorcycle that is not justifiable for the $cost$ and are behind in technology..... Besides, back when the norm age limit of Harley riders rode there HD's, there was no sport bikes out like there is today. Our Busas are sooooo far in front of there HDs in technology that they are LOST.
Nomatter what age we are, 40yr.old+ society based people probably consider us punk kids, but I bet that later on from now that sport bike riders will be considered and known as BAD AZZ, OUTLAW, REBEL, LEATHER WEARN', CRAZY DONT MESS WITH US ULTIMATE STREETLEGAL POWERPLANTS ON THE STREETS!!! Actually evolution has to point this way because kids today envy sport bikes, they dont envy harleys and the kids today will someday rule the world and they will use the new and newer technologies in the future.
The majority of 40yr.old+ guys tend to not know anything about technology and they dont want to learn anything about it, this is prob why they frown at sport bikes and give HDs thumbs up. The only reasonable excuse that older HD riders have ever said to me about not liking sport bikes is that sport bikes, "hurt your back in that position" and "Are too dangerous and are death traps!!" Think about it... They are either Jealous or they just fall in the norm of middle aged society based people who "only like what other people there age like"....hehe
All they want to do is stick with the past (like ride harleys). I know 100's of 40yr.olds+ who dont even know or want to learn how to use a computer or the internet!! hehe Sad.....
And you 40+yr. old guys on this board, I just want to say that I really respect you and that you will always have my respect for enjoying and learning the new technologies that our generation have today.
LET THE MEDIA SHOW EVERYONE HOW CRAZY AND WRECKLESS SPORT BIKES ARE!!! DAMN REBEL/OUTLAW KIDS!! (Sounds like what people said about Harley riders a few decades ago doesnt it??)
I could go on and on about my opinon on this, but I think you get the picture. Sorry for the long post!
