I prefer Steve. My mode of transportation changes all the time. I love to drive my truck (not a trucker). I love to walk (not a walker). Just Steve (or grumpy old SMSgt if you are one of my troops)

 
I get what the OP is saying though, in the aviation world often times you will here people talk about pilot vs. aviator. I think it is an attempt to differentiate those that are along for the ride on the bike (in the plane) and those that wish to master the craft of riding (flying).

Others simply do not care, as also expressed in this thread.

Ah, "an attempt to differentiate" now there is the rub my friend.

It's not that I don't care, I just feel no need to differentiate distance myself

from other people that ride motorcycles.

When I come up on a group of cruisers riding in formation doing 5-10mph UNDER the speed limit and backing up traffic, riding with almost no gear, and heading to the local bar, I guess I DO feel compelled to differentiate or distance myself from those types. As far as I can. I have little in common with them, and nor do I want to be associated with them in the least.

We all think the same thing when we ride with an ugly fecker like you. Yeah he is on two wheels but we are not with him.

Love you skoot!

Can't argue with passing slower traffic doing 5-10 under the speed limit with the exception of a funeral procession that is. ;)

Why not? Like hanging out with dead folk, do ya? :p
I've a question for my Fellow FJR Forumites: If TheZsdad was riding down the road on his FJR and he came up on this Zombie: How in the Hell would he know if this "thing" was dead or alive?

REALLY!!!
