I'm not sure how you meant that, seeing as how his biggest tantrums are reserved for Harleys and their owners. There are many other "one brand, one mind" types out there that I have run into over the years, with Beemer and Gold Wing owners at the top of the list. FWIW, anyone who can't see past the tank badge on their own bike - regardless of its make - is someone who I have no desire to ride with.

Amen.
I believe in technology. I believe in DOHC, multi-valve cylinder heads, liquid-cooling, astronomical RPM, more than five gears, light weight, chain drive, and all at a reasonable price.

You should introduce them to schoolboy, I bet they'd get a kick out of him saying his sig line in person.
My sig is from a real conversation I had with a HD rider. Where else do you think it would have come from?
By the way, it is not what badge is on the tank that counts, it is the quality of the machine you ride.
Now, I don't know about any of you, but I prefer value for the dollar and reliablility. Those speak to quality, not a name. But hey, why do I know? I don't ride a 1000cc or worship MVs and Ducatis?
Keep egging the "noob" on, because he dares to THINK DIFFERENTLY. Keep chastizing someone who may have an ALTERNATE view, instead of the DEFAULT one.
Don't like it, too bad.
And screw you if you hate yellow. It makes it easier to be seen by idiot SUV-driving cell phone-yaking cagers here.

I doubt you have the balls to have a conversation like that with anyone- unless it's from behind your computer screen.

You don't think differently, you have a very narrowminded view and can only see what you want to see, much like the people you keep pointing out.

That's about it.
Anyone who says "I wouldn't ride anything but a '______' just doesn't get it.
