Bike & Personality - What does your bike say about you?!

[mark83]

So I was thinking how everyone judges car drivers by what they drive.. e.g. BMW = twat. SAAB = dentist. Porsche = fat, balding loser. Ferrari = fake tan wannabe.

So what do our bikes say about us? Was thinking which bike suits which category best? Rule is: one bike per category!

1. Chav
2. Serious rider
3. Boring old fart
4. I'd rather clean it than ride it
5. I have a small penis

So I'll start the game...

1. R6 + Akrapovic exhaust ("because I like the sticker!")
2. Aprilia Tuono
3. Honda VFR
4. GSXR
5. Hayabusa

i would've put BMW under "boring old fart".

But yeah, the big tourers like pan europeans come under that too imo.

Sports tourers such as the blackbird come under "awesome" though.

[KevTM]

1. R6, R6, R6, R6, R6.
2. Big V-Twin Adventure bike? (hard to say, what's 'serious' ?)
3. Bandit 600 & BMW GS's.
4. GSXR (clean it, take pics)
5. Any litre sportsbike, especially the R1.

[wizzzard]

2. Pan can't help but associate them with riding schools now
3. BMW

5. Have to say litre sportsbikes and above and I did have one

[nowhere.elysium]

1. Chav - About 99.9% of peds on the road
2. Serious rider - Any old bike that's obviously been very, very used. My mate's KZ650 being a fine example. Most bikes with high mileages. Not so sure about high-mileage X9s, though.
3. Boring old fart - Deauville. Or one of the BMWs with full touring rig and everything from the touratech catalogue.
4. I'd rather clean it than ride it - Anything cruiser-flavoured, and anything that can be classed as British Iron, unless said Iron is last seen giving it large into a corner somewhere.
5. I have a small penis - '98 R1, unless you're Chuck Norris (oblig. clause). The temptation is to say anyone with a tuned and stickered 'busa, but most of them are pretty mental, so I'll leave them be...
