My neighbor behind me dresses in surf garb all day long. Surf trunks, tee shirt and flip flop. He just took the motorcycle safety class and got his license. So, he goes out and buys a 2006 Harley Fat Boy with all the extras and chrome flames and studded saddlebags....Once a week he puts on his Harley garb. Harley tee shirt, Levis, boots and black leather jacket if cold. He leaves the drive way and is back within 1 hour. He's back in surfer garb within a hour. Come to think of it, I see him load his surfboard on his truck once every 2 weeks and he's back within 2 hours.

Where can I buy a Piaggio tee shirt??

I don't pal around much but I have a couple buds. Our common bond is that we ride our motorcycles as transportation year round. We talk heated clothing, riding lights, tires, windshields, and the smell of diesel exhaust trapped in a helmet. We also grimace at the duds, I mean dudes, that dress up once a week in leathers and chrome half helmets, then wobble around on bikes that are way too heavy for them. We call them weekend weinies. I really wouldn't care but I've had a couple near misses with a few of them because they can't control their machines. On top of that they don't seem to understand the significance of acknowledging a passing biker. A subtle wave means we're out here together and we'll help if need be. There's some tragic comedy when a bonehead has to play dress up and ride a potentially dangerous machine, but I'm not laughing.

I just ordered a t-shirt that says'

I have a Roketa MC-18 B that was delivered sans MCO, and all I could wrangle out of the dealer was the VIN number on a bill of sale.

Since I don't mind fighting the law until the law wins, we decided to go full outlaw and chop it down to look as much like a 50 as we could. This required some 50 cc "Racing" stickers for it so we cruised all the motorcycle shops that were open today.

The Harley shop was closed, they prolly all went to Red River, but the Ducati/Triumph shop was open and they had free doughnuts and bottled water! Nice guys, they let me sit all over the Bonnevilles and asked 'What are you riding now?'

A Honda Silverwing.

It seemed like the place went quiet, and I heard a wrench ping on the floor in the back room. Maybe it was just me.

We went to the Honda shop, and there were desperate salesmen idling about, and they were itching to slink over and 'Can i helpyou' when I sat on a Shadow 750, but the Bonneville 900 outclassed it completely, so we asked if there was a Kawasaki shop, and it was nearby.

You guys oughtta but some doughnuts, people like doughnuts.

The Kawasaki shop had a tub full of sodas and ice, and a nice fruit cup with toothpicks for mangoes and pineapples.

Nobody had any stickers, or Ninja 250's, which is what my buddy was looking for. He was riding my Kymco Xciting, which is way more awesomer than a pedestrian Ninja, but hey, I'll wave to anybody, even the weekend dudes with the fat girls on the back.

You pretty much need a 1200 if you're going to carry a fat girl around.

O.K. dude that is mean and cool at the same time...I think the same of the people driving around in big ol hummers. And Bashan I totally hear you on the subtle wave thing. OOHHHH I am sorry I waved at you on your big ol harley, dont humiliate yourself by waving back at some dude on a little scoot. WHATEVER....And no fair makin fun of the garb bro..I like wearin my board shorts. There is a pc cruiser up here that has a board on top and I laugh every time I see it cuz we are three hours from the closest wave..And that is just terrible for the board....talk about a hodad

Not True!!!!!! I like mine on a 50cc. Makes the wheelies much easier. So long as she hangs on

BTW no offense to the big girls just jokin. I personally like a bit a meat on my passenger. I'd rather buy nachos instead of a salad

I don't care what people wear while riding, I often slip on a Tu Tu myself. What rubs me the wrong way is if you're going to talk the talk, you should walk the walk. The wannaweinies are all talk, and that equals danger for others, including the fat chick.

That was a priceless story ce, let us know if you get one over on the DMV. It'll probably work, as long as they don't have to look up from the monitor it's OK by them. Hey Cookees, were you selling T's with that slogan at the Outlaw reunion? EM, I'm starting to understand your posts, and that frightens me .

[kz1000st]

Really guys. I wear the same leather jacket, jeans and full face helmet no matter what I ride. Should I change outfits when I switch from the 650 Kawasaki to the 50cc Cub Clone? I really don't want to have to buy a half helmet, white sneakers and khaki pants. Do I mix and match when I ride the 150? Oh no, if I take the 250 Big Ruckus what do I wear? HELP!

It's your thing, do what you wanna do
I can't tell ya, who to sock it to

Yesterday my daughter called me to give her a ride the rest of the way to work because the clutch cable on her Stella broke again. She's stting at a Starbuck's with a scruffy looking biker dude when I get there.

He introduces himself, 'Tools', and said he saw her pushing the scoot, and didn't want her to lose it from someone stealing it if she just left it and offered to load it in his truck and take it home for her.
He rides with the Sons of God Christian group, and the had just had a big national convention a couple weeks ago downtown by my office. There were Harleys all over the place, but I don't know if they checked out my scooter parked at the bicycle rack.

So we load up the scoot and he follows me on my 250B to her house and we set it down and he rides south down the Rio Grande.

I thanked him for his assistance, but he said it was all in a day, because he works for God.

Well, thanks God, not only did I secure the Stella, but I had my faith in my fellow man restored as well.

It was an affirmation thet doing good things is a good thing to do.

If you see a need, and can lend a hand, you give what you can, which I think is an honest aesthetic here on Scooter Doc. Anyone with expertise is just looking for someone to help.

To help another is a noble endeavor, and to do so without cost or recognition makes it the most valuable accomplishment.

These are different and difficult times, but we can't abandon the ideal, where we look out for each other, and band together for strength, E pluribus unum, and all that sort of thing.

So bikers helping scooters is as natural as can be, because you can't judge a book by looking at the cover, and you can't judge a woman by looking at the mother.

Well, but, I mean, sometimes you can, sorta.
