Are you a real biker? (Quiz)
http://www.whybike.com/biker/
My results: (surprisingly close for 6 questions) You are a Road Captain You live in the wind. You could be at home watching far off destinations on TV but you prefer to discover your own. You cross state lines like most people cross the street. When stuff happens people look to you for answers. You are a wiz with duct tape and bailing wire. Riding is not just a diversion but a way of life. |
Re: Are you a real biker? (Quiz)
You are a Peg Monkey You live to ride. If you are not scraping pegs or bouncing of the limiter you are bored. You wear the gear 'cuz you know what it is like to ride asphalt. Keep an eye on your six, because if the law ain't chasing you down, your buddies would like to catch up. ummm, kinda |

Re: Are you a real biker? (Quiz)
You are a Saddle Sore Biker You don't care what the destination is; it's all about the ride. You choose a direction and go. A numb butt comes with the territory, but so does terrific scenery, time to think, and lonely roadside diners in towns past their prime. |

Tho I thought to be a Biker in the US meant to 1) Own a bike (usually a Hardly Doesaton) 2) Own lots of Hardly branded clothing. 3) Polish your bike at the weekend 4) Once a week ride it the couple of miles to the local "biker bar", have some beer with your mates then ride it home again. 5) Get your bike couriered via trailer to Daytona Bike week/Sturgis once a year and pose on it, despite it being exactly the same as 90% of the bikes there. Wild Hogs was marketed as a Comedy, but in reality it was more like a Documentary..... :p |

Are you sure you don't live in the US? :lol: LOL For 90% of motorcycle owners in the US you would be right on the mark. Perhaps the quiz is for the other 10%, most of whom do actually ride their bikes but are no doubt are confused as to what a real biker might be... having seen so few. :smt017 |

Was looking to buy a bike to leave out there for when I visited and to go out and do the ride from Louisville KY to Sturgis or Daytona ans couldn't believe the VERY low milage some of the second hand bikes had done, literally 2k miles in 4 years on some. Also when looking at maybe heading to Daytona a couple of years ago (we were over there at the right time, but would have been too tight to actually do it with the flights we had) I was amazed to see the number of companies advertising to trailer bikes from wherever to the event. Sure the US is big and New York is a LONG way from Florida, but surely a real biker would just take an extra week off either side and enjoy the ride, rather than trailer the nike there and fly down...... My main measure for this tho was how few bikes that were being used as transport (ie at rush-hour etc) against the ones being used for Pose factor - ie out on a Friday night in downtown areas...... |

A real biker would...:lol: To be fair though I suppose we should take some consideration as to the bikes they are riding. While we laugh when we see a group of Hardley Ablesons being followed by at least one pickup truck (usually with a trailer)....the truth is they are not extremely reliable. Even if they don't break down.....(which they frequently do)..bits just fall off from the vibration. (ask an owner LOL) I'd be afraid to ride a harley from NY to FL! Unless..... Maybe I could get the wife to follow me in the.....ugh....nevermind. :oops: ;) |

1) What is your ideal bike? A. a scooter powered by the motor out of an old dot matrix printer B. a ragged 125 with L plates flapping wildly C. a 200mph superbike made entirely out of plastic, capable of backflipping if you dump the clutch D. an enormous cruiser to match your enormous beard and gut 2) You go to your local bike emporium to buy some accessories. What do you get? A. the can off a 600, some speakers for your iPod and a derestrictor kit that will give you a whole extra 0.5bhp B. a top box that you could fit the bike into, a fly screen that tilts forward every time you brake, and mirrors to replace the ones you smashed off yesterday C. your third set of tires this month D. Ten tubes of Autosol, more bandannas, and some studded leather pants 3) What do you wear while riding? A. Kappa tracksuit, Classic White trainers, dented lid with your hood pulled over it B. Mismatched textile suit, thin gloves, filthy boots, 'safety patrol' reflective belt C. £800 leathers that match your bike, and a replica of Foggy's helmet. D. A leather vest with tassels, a black t-shirt with a wolf or skull on it, blue jeans, cowboy boots and - grudgingly - a helmet. Cos 'the man' says you have to. 4) How do you secure your bike? A. Who'd nick it? B. An enormous, clanking chain C. A ear-splitting alarm system and 10,000v electrified fairings D. It's so heavy it cannot be moved except by the engine 5) Another road user angers you. What do you do? A. Kick at them B. Try to make a ****** gesture before going into severe wobbles and plunging off the road into a thicket C. Shout garbled obscenities through your helmet, before twisting your throttle wide open and hitting the start to cause an almighty bang and wheelieing off down the street D. Shake your fist and shout at them for being on YOUR road 6) It's not a proper ride unless you... A. ...flip off someone on a sports bike for refusing to race you B. ...flood the engine trying to get up a steep hill C. ...get your knee down at least twice D. ...stop for burgers! 7) Where do you ride?

To the roadside cafe, to stand around sweating and looking at each other's bikes 8) It's raining! Do you go out? A. No way! I'll just go sit under the awning outside the Spar and drink cider B. I have to, or I'll be sacked from Tesco C. Hell yes, but only if I can obsessively scrub my bike from top to bottom afterwards D. Forget about it. I'll be polishing the chrome until Christmas! 9) Who are your biking compatriots? A. My 'kru' - Wayne, Gavin, Thierry and Wayne. We're the ****hole Estate Massive! B. I'm on my own. My parents don't approve, and my girlfriend is scared to get on the back C. The forum for owners of my particular model of bike D. My fellow 99 percenters, all middle-aged businessmen 10) Your next bike will be: A. A 125cc scooter, 'derestricted' to 172, but don't tell the cops that! B. A fully-faired 125, so at least I'll look like a sports biker, so long as people don't notice the L plates or fact I can't go faster than 80mph C. Whatever obscenely powerful hypersports ride comes out next, unless Dodge finally make the Tomahawk available for sale D. Another gigantic cruiser, with a leather armchair for a seat and handlebars higher than my head SCORING! 1 point for every A, 2 for every B, 3 for every C, and 4 for every D. 10pts: You are a ped boi! U nikd ur ride frum sum fool adn neva got found owt. u cant wait til shaznay n gemma see u wheely past u are teh eleat ridar!!1 20pts: You are a restricted rider! You ride out of necessity, carrying a week's shopping on the back and L plates on the front. 30pts: You are a sports biker! Knee down, racing lines, full fairing - you wish you were Rossi. The speed limit is insulting to both a machine and rider of your capability! 40pts: You are a weekend warrior! Saddle up your hawg and burble your way around country lanes at a leisurely place, never returning nods from other riders. Any other score: You've answered the questions wrong! |
