I am claiming every mm I can & it says 5' 6" on the drivers license. Maybe I am,,& I weigh just under 140, so me, on Bull, running it down the road, I think we look well proportioned. I get positive response from most people, even HD riders. I guess having a smile on my face & an honest appreciation for the fact that THEY are a rider & THey like their bike, we have an immediate SOMething in common. I like looking at other bikes & I'm a friendly guy & so far, no one has ever just "shot me down" for riding the one I ride. IF someone ever does, I wont be hurt or angry. I wont be hurt, because the only people who have opinions that matter to me are those whose thinking I RESPECT. I Give those people the power to affect how I feel, to a degree.I wont be angry, just because. Their attitude isnt important enough to allow it to affect my day, not even for a second. I would wonder what kind of person could look at such nice looking little bike &, without knowing how it rides, pulls away, grunts out of turns & feels handling the mean streets, manage to decide it is "Unworthy" of appreciation.. Now, why in the WURld would I care what a person like that thinks?
But, to answer the ?? that started the thread..
Most folks are nice. Most bikers are outgoing, more so than the average Joe or Jane Sixpakk & will treat you & your choice of motorcycle with respect & courtesy. I believe you will be well received & that is always better, even IF you dont care what they think,its better if they think good things.
