    Aw, they're just emulating their heroes: real 1%ers.

    Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

    One night at my cousins house I accidentally drank a Hells Angels beer, my cousin told me to grab a beer if I wanted one so I did. The choice was Molson Canadian or Labatts Blue (don't really like either but given the choice I'll take Canadian). Turns out the Canadian belonged to the Angel, he let me know it was his (after I had drank half of it on my way back downstairs) so I told him it was either this or Blue and I wasn't drinking that crap. He chuckled and said don't worry about it, I'm under no illusion that if I wasn't related to my cousin and in his house the outcome might have been different, but for the most part "bikers" are just like everyone else. Below is a conversation about 1% clubs, they say pretty much the same things we are here. Just cut and paste (not sure if TTR allows you to post links so I hope this is ok).

    My very first motorbike ever was a older Suzuki enduro...125...

    [​IMG]

    I was excited to own it...it ran well maybe 3-4 times...the rest of the time it always had issues, would never start...(kick starter)....

    Back in the 1980's...Suzukis had a poor reputation...they were considered a 'cheap' bike that always broke...then doing the 90's...they underwent a image change...and redefined themselves as a brand....kind of like Hyundia...They did or do their talking on the race track now...

    That's how bikes ultimatly get respect...is on the track...and it pays off in the show rooms...
