How old is your bikes rider? |
I see a lot of posts on here suggesting that sport bike riders are all young punks.... that they probably have little experience...... and that older more mature riders have "graduated" to a Harley-Davidson.... because they have so much more experience. I see more punks wearin' WCC & OCC T's than I do sport bike T's. So my question is.... what do you ride personally and how old are you? Let's find out! Crotch rocket rider here for over 30 years....... 51 years old this month. age:40. saddle time: 6 yrs. bike: harley sportster. on 2nd bike. number of times asphalt surfing.....none yet (keyword: YET). cages dodged: lost count. Over 50 - Harley Davidson I've been riding for over 35 years 55 and I haven't "graduated" past a Honda Valkyrie. I sometimes run into your fellow crotch rocketeers who have graduated to the "Couch Rocket"- GL1800, though. :-) Sure, it takes time to be experienced, but most of the under 30 rocket riders I meet seem to take an active interest in becoming better riders. As older hands, we should be helping newer riders, when we can, instead of bashing them. Bunch of punks with the Gap purchased OCC T'shirts have never forked a bike of any kind. I probably shouldn't be answering this question, 'cause I already see the more *ahem* "mature" Harley riders reaming my *** for this one: but, I'm 27, and have only been riding streetbikes (legally) for 9 years. If it's any consolation, I've been riding dirt bikes since I was 5. ...yeah, I know, it's no consolation! lol Only 1 wreck in those 9 years, though. And that includes all the hours that I've spent on a track. About 10,000,599,999 close calls, and counting... (Oh, and 2006 Suzuki GSX-R1000 K6 is my most current project. But, I'm already making plans to trade it for a K7 750. In a few years, and depending on how well my business is doing at the time, I'll probably look into a V-Rod or Street Rod for some added fun, and an Electra Glide for the really long hauls. I'd also love to get my hands on a Ducati 999R, but I'll probably have to settle for the 749 due to the inherent expense. Regardless, I'll always have a sportbike of some sort in my garage, and that will never change.) over 30.........my bike is a Harley...Hertiage Softail Classic Husband over 30....his is a Harley....Road King Classic Harley & sportbike riders - We are all one! |
