We'll they can sit there and talk about how badass they are while watching reruns of Sons of Anarchy now. I ride, and really don't know what happens to some when they climb on a bike.
I've got an old Yamaha that I've riden for past 25 years or so. Kind of a cool old bike. Most people who pay any attention to it see a cool old well maintianed bike.. And there's always one or two a$$hats that want to jack with me 'cuz it ain't a Harley'. The overwhelming majority of bike riders I've ever met are decent folks, The few a$$hats seem to get all the attention tho..
