things I really HATE on a bike

[Guitarosaur]

Hate to see on a bike? People who spend more then 5 seconds thinking about what other people shouldn't have on their bikes. If somebody likes bling, then bling away.

ease up now!

I never said that someone "shouldn't" have ANYTHING on their bikes. I think everyone needs to put anything and everything on their bikes that they want! Why the hell should my opinion of your bike influence what you do with it!? Similarly, why the hell should your opinion of my bike influence what I do with it?

I think a lot of people missed my point here. Some got it, but a good many took offense and got all pooty about my initial post.

All I'm saying is DO YOUR OWN THING!

Jeeezus! Who am I that this thread would cause such a case of mass knicker-twist among the brethren???

I hate seeing cigar-smoking gorilla's on motorcycles!!

Fringe is my only thing. I'm just not into that. You should see what people are doing with the new Indians though. Apparently those things were made just for it!

Well you say "things you hate on a bike" and the things you list are on "my" bike. Basically your saying that you hate my bike. People on this forum can take that personal. There's a lot of things I hate that I just keep to myself. That's how I've stayed married for so long.

Can I assume, (going WAY out on a limb here), that your wife doesn't read the forum?!

[MadCruzer]

Nope, she HATES this forum.

[jeffs99vulcan]

Nope, she HATES this forum.

Ditto...

GreenDragon, your signature is so true, i once took a small snake to the chest at 60+ on my atv in the CA desert...talk about a pucker moment!

[jeffs99vulcan]

June bug... a little worse than a ROCK, 'cause you get the splatter along with it.

who cares what someone elses bike looks like.As long as you like yours!Now just shut up and lets ride cause that's all that matters!!!!!!!

dragonfly @45. butterfly @30. the butterfly bounced off my mustache. dragonfly hit hard.

i run into mosquitoes on my knuckles all the time. feels liike needles.

i still stick by my guns: no fat chicks on bikes.

the rest is tolerable as long as there aren't leather CatONines on the bars. fast wind makes those cut! looks cool in town and on other people's scoots, but hurts like SOB.

[MadCruzer]

In 1983 I had a bee hit the middle of my sunglasses and with its last dieing breath put his stinger in my right eye. Its stinger (actually the whole bee) was stuck there till I pulled over at a gas station. My eye wasn't the same for about a week. I've rode with a windshield ever since.

oh and a new thing I hate on a bike. Flat black primer paint. A seat that should be on a old John Deere and any type of rust.

You've mentioned twice now that you don't like ( as you put it ) fat chicks on bikes. I take it then that fat guys on bikes would be a no no as well? Which would cover about 60% of the guys on this forum including me.

I think cigar smokin' gorillas are cool.

[insolentminx]

you know what i really hate on bikes???


women... who insist on wearing clothes!!!!

how goddamn frikkin inconsiderate to all the male riders out there!!!
for god's sake woman... take off the leather jacket, leather jeans, gloves, boots and that skimpy little lacy number; and just sit there nekkid like a good girl.






...obviously Insolent Minx does not recommend women attempt to ride the big heavy piece of machinery, but if she does try, then she should put the items of clothing back on and be sure to have an ambulance on standby.

...obviously Insolent Minx is also joking, so don't go getting your politically correct feminist big cotton panties in a twist.
