I started on a R3 and now ride a SV650S. Whenever I come to any kind of intersection where there is a car that could have pulled out on me but they didn't I always try to give them a wave. I obviously want to thank them for seeing me and waiting but I also hope to give them a nice perception on motorcyclist. Maybe they did have a squid on the highway cut them off while weaving at 120mph through traffic, but I hope that they will also remember the nice motorcyclist who gave them a wave for stopping and waiting and they'll be more open minded to those who ride

[@doghous3]

subcultures! Yup. Even in push-bike circles. I used to x-country/downhill a lot and would get sneered at by roadies (cyclists) when I was on the road with my hardtail mtb. As for motorbikes, I think most normies think of them as widow-makers. Heh.

[@shawnclarke7]

I have always liked this opinion I once heard regarding driving that said "isn't it funny how everyone driving slower than you is an asshole and everyone driving faster than you is a maniac?" I think this translates in many different aspects of not only driving/riding but almost everything. If I see someone speeding (not even crazy fast) or aggressively moving through traffic, I tend to think WTF are they doing? But then that might be me and any other given day. I think this "bad behavior" is normal for enthusiasts whether it is cars, trucks or bikes, but in North America since bikes are not a common form of commuter transportation it means most motorcyclists are also enthusiasts which means there is a higher percentage of them "doing bad things" by why we are all judged.

[@duhbullb]

As a newer rider, it was the gatekeepers that were my worry. Like many hobbies they are the clear minority, but that small group is loud. The nicest people I have met this year were on bikes, but also the biggest douchebags I met this year were also on bikes.

[@ajc-ff5cm]

It depends. People will think what they want to think. If you drive a big truck, people can and do perceive you differently depending on where you are. In Texas and Oklahoma it’s pretty much expected. In big and dense coastal cities, you can be get perceived as a redneck country bumpkin. With bikes, I think it depends more on how you carry yourself. In today’s culture, the squid without gear riding 2-3 times the speed limit and getting angry at the car pulling out in front at no risk to them is remembered more than the guy riding invisible.

[@ShivaShakur]

It's like every day I hear someone make a rude comment about how some dude driving a truck must have a small pee pee. Then in the next breath they'll say they support body positivity and think shaming people based on how they're born is wrong. People are terrible at examining their own biases and recognizing their hypocrisy. Most are "sheep" unfortunately, ignorant, surface-level intelligent, and/or extremely cognitively imbalanced or dissonant (figuratively myopic, intellectually strong in logic but only barely able to create or recognize social cues, or vice versa)

There is definitely a perception out there that people who ride motorcycles are in some way “not normal”.

When we meet “normal” folks on a ride and they find out the group riding are doctors, nurses and health care executives, the look on their face is priceless. They truly have a hard time processing it….

it's funny because I keep seeing videos by yammie and chase talking about trying to minimize your time near cars, meanwhile when I see someone on a bike I try to "get away" from them either by going faster or giving a ton of space because I don't want to be near them if they make a mistake or something happens. really helpful to learn this stuff though. maybe in 5 years I'll get around to getting my first motorcycle.

The last two times I got pulled over by law enforcement, the very first thing they said to me was "thanks for stopping". Since when has it become optional, not to pull over, when prompted to do so by the proper authorities. (of course, asking for a friend)

[@Kenneth_Rogers]

It not that it became "optional", it's that most squids on supersport bikes ran and either go away or got un-alived. I once got busted doing 80 in a 55 on my R1. Sheriff deputy saw me and flashed his lights. I pulled over, took off my helmet and waited a solid 2 minutes for him to come. The look of relief on his face was priceless. He thanked me for stopping and I said "You got me fair and square." His biggest concern wasn't me violating the speed limit, it was my safety due to risk of crashing being higher and that's why he thanked me.

[@mrblondeheart9562]

I'm 32 years old; standing at 6'3 and 230 pounds, upon reviewing the video that it clearly was not me or my bike i was let off.

Every time I ride or go to my dealer to get maintenance done there’s always a rider saying ride safe. I like that. It’s like this instant connection that we have. I’ve met some harley guys that get enthusiastic about the younger generation becoming riders. Their main concern is how some people go over 100 and might not make it because of the possibility of one simple mistake could end it all.

I mean that's friggin' awesome right? Except the kids were on the track ALL THE TIME, like 12 hours a day, every day, all summer, like 500 feet from my house.

[@Mr_Phoskitos]

Here in Spain we have the European AM -> A1 -> A2 -> A licenses progression. So real quick for those who don't know it. For a reference, you can drive cars when you're 18 (with the B license). You can get the AM license with 15 and drive 2 strokes 49cc. So you can see young little future squids outside highscools on that. With 16 years old you can get the A1 license, and it gets you up to 125cc. Here you can encounter from (again) future squids on a GSXR 125 from a lot (and I mean a LOT) of adults going to work and trying to save some money on parking and gas. With 18 years old you can now go to the A2. No cc limitation, but power instead. Maximum power output of 35 Kw (which is around 49 HP). Now right here is where you start to find some enthusiast. Yeah some people are still commuting saving some bucks on a limited 650cc but I would say maybe half of them end up falling in love with motorcycles. Now for the last one the A license is just "whatever bike". But in order to get it you need to posses at least the A2 license for 2 years. So this system is supposed to "reward" progression and dynamic learning. It kinda works and also it doesn't but that's another whole different story. My point is: 1000cc here? Full A license. That means you're an absolut motorcycle freak enthusiast (normies see them as "nothing bad against those people") or just a street Rossi. However there's PLENTY of enthusiasts who just do their weekend rides and enjoy, but the minority of street squids poppin nooners and revvin that inline 4 straight piped Gixxer are a real "inconvinience" for the rest of us. However it is true that it kinda is like tattoos. But slower. People are getting used to see the rider as an interrogation like "it can be whoever I don't know". But I do believe it's gonna get some years still to get to that point. But we are doin pretty good I would say. Drive safe guys.

Speed limit in Ireland is 120kmph. Any biker not wearing gear (boots, trousers, jacket, gloves , helmet) are very much looked down on and considered an idiot. Lane splitting is allowed here but much be done cautiously. You’ll absolutely be pulled over by police if you’re flying it, however. There are restrictions here on power output of the bike depending on your age. You’ve also to complete a minimal training period. Once you’re over 24 the limits are lifted. 24 is usually the age people ‘wake up’ a little and take less chances.

Dude I live in fuckin Daytona Beach lol and most locals park their ride when the streets are filled with a bunch of non riders riding motorcycles

I live in an area where you really only see groups of Harleys with the normal racket they make but no drama. Only see one or maybe two sport bikes together. No real stereotypes. I do think it has to do with population and ability to ride all year. I ride a MT09 and don't think I've seen another one around yet.

The funny thing is people love to see my v30 magna, I have never been harassed or had people be apauled to be in the presence of my bike, but I live in a small town in north Texas I think is has to do with the area that you ride/live in.

My only unpleasant experience with a rider was this old chopper dude riding in a group that was stopped at the same gas station/souvenir shop as me and my family. This guy dropped his pants and showed everyone his BARE ASS to publicly urinate in the parking lot when the entrance to the shop, which had a restroom readily available, was ONLY 30 FEET away. Wtf…
