You guys are legit. *raises glass* I'd say your man cards have no more punches left in them. Free t-shirt or something.

Youtubers can be very aggressive and opinionated. Such is life when you post though. Don't get upset about it. I am thankful for people like you who post their vids with the intent of helping people. Whether you are giving instruction (like your Ninja pick up video) or you're showing others what is possible (BadBoy rebuild) somebody will be interested and very grateful. Keep up the good work.

And on my t-shirt Id like it to say.. "Your Lack Of Planning and Patients Is Not an Emergency, Don't Make It One !".  |

May I say I enjoyed watching your YouTube. I just did. I especially like "LJ VS The Tire Bead". Probably cause I've lived it. |

Hmm, When I am riding my scooter, I am not wrestling the beast, I can sit back, take a deep breath, and become one with it, enjoy the ride. If others are too worried about image to try something they would truly enjoy, so sad for them. The bigger man doesn't give a :censored: what others think. The lesser man is too afraid to try it for fear of what the "others" will think. :cheers: Insert coca cola here for me too  |

Had a great time in the Fort Wayne Scooter Club, Great group of people we met every Sunday at Mcdonald's, got something to eat, and spent the day riding. We made video's of the rides, posted them on Youtube, and that got us more scooter enthusiast. When your with the right people they will like and respect you for who you are, no need to worry about an Image or conforming to somebody's idea of the status quo. |

The Nod...... do you ever get the nod when out on your scoot? off other bikers i mean? i foflmao at it tbh.... for example, on our big run last year, all of us 1000cc owners, trackday riders, racers etc, but riding auto 50s.... did we get the nod? that would be a NO! :lol: some will nod by accident then sort of un-nod it back when they realise the single lamp belongs to a stepthru lol :lol: it's hilarious! |

but also the last 2 years running a 50cc scoot has won the motorcycle class at the car show at the tech collage

People are conditioned to think big and fast is what motorcycling is all about.
It didnt used to be that way until about the early 90's when sportbike culture
started to take off. At my age, Ive had all bikes from Harleys, dirt bikes, the
sportbikes, a 600 and two 900's. After all that, Ive come to realize smaller
is better. There is something inherently cool about flipping-off the "cool kids"
and doing your own thing-- Riding the wheels off of your small bike. I
have to laff at the way I see some kids riding sportbikes on back roads. They
simply cant handle them. It sucks to be on a DR650 and have to slow down
for one . . ha ha ha ha. Really, you are scraping pegs and using 100% of the
bike, any person that says something to you is most likely going to be a kid
without too much cycle time who prolly uses 30% of what the bike can do.
who's cooler now !?!?! People on YouTube always say nasty stuff, too. I'd
ask them to post a link to one of their vids if they put something negative up.

I got several waves today, I road 36 miles, it was a beautiful day very warm, so many motorcycles were out and about. I think it just depends on the person your passing. Japanese and Harley riders seem more open to the wave or nod. I agree about the crotch rockets, they very very seldom wave at anyone even an other crotch rocket.
