...Just be sure to use a dark visor on the helmet, and keep it closed :lol:
Chicks dig motorcycles.

In northern Indiana on my way out to SE Ohio last fall with Griff and 0Face, we happen to pass a van full of college girls - probably on their way to play a rival college in some sport. Well, one of them got real smiley and friendly and was waving like crazy and the others around her did as well.

Gave a friendly wave back. Never did raise that dark visor on the helmet. :)

So barb, do you ever get the girls to wave at you?

Almost 40 years of riding, many, many different bikes, but this is the only bike I have ever had this happen on. One day on the way home from work, I'm riding rather aggressively while entering the hwy loop here around Charlotte. Just as this occurs I notice a white Jeep driving quickly up to my left in another lane. Male driver, female passenger. I get a wave from the young, gorgeous female passenger and I speed away. Here comes the Jeep (cherokee) again. Girl smirks, sticks her complete upper torso out of the passenger window and I get the full frontal flash at 70 mph on the interstate. I give a thumbs up and think 2 things: 1-Don't wreck. 2-Boy I'm glad I'm wearing my tight leather power rangers full leathers and my Arai or she would know she just flashed someone old enough to be her father! :ph34r:
Your ability to control the motorcycle under extremely stressful situations is commendable!!

I might have wrecked!! :blink: ....................Probably would have....................

Target fixation- you tend to go where you're looking. At least it would have been a soft impact...

 
Next to Duke, a full dress Harley Davidson is the best chick magnet ever.

They like the vibramatic rhythms pumping up from the seat.. ;)

Yeah but the ratio of nasty chicks to hot chicks on the backs of Harleys is 15 to 1. No thanks! I'll take my chances on my FJR...

...and ya gotta wipe down the seats for excessive moisture after they get off as well.

Too much hassle.

 
I got a FJR coming off a big 1800cc muscle cruiser that I had customized and it really was a Bad Ass bike. I loved riding it and it got a lot of looks & compliments. I switched over to the ST because it better fit my needs and my riding style and I just assumed my days of getting compliments were over. Nothing against the FJR...I mean I bought one...but it's not necessarily a bike I thought would turn heads.

Funny thing though, I've gotten quite a few compliments at gas stations and other spots where people are at. I really didn't expect ANY. I could care less either way but I've been pleasantly surprised that many people think the FJR is pretty sexy looking & cool looking bike. ;) Mines in such terrific shape when I tell them it's an 2005 model they can't believe it and they assume its a brand new model.

oh come on, AJ. 15 to 1......

more like 50 to 1...

 
I think your all on crack.

The reason you get noticed by wimmens has nothing to do with the striking figure on the bike, or even how the bike looks. They all think it's a BMW and well that can only mean one thing... He's GOT CASH!

Finally, our Bungie gets it right!

BMW: BRING MORE WALLET!

I do have cash! Sometimes it's only a dollar, but it's cash!

 
The only thing I can think of, Big Paz, is they must think you're, Me!!!! on my FJR! :rolleyes:
yeah...... that MUST be it.... :blink:
You know guys, this is just a theory of mine, perhaps the cute girls have mistaken you two for RadioHowie. RadioHowie also gets honks and a lot of waves too, a hell of a lot of honks and waves!

They would be wrong..... He HAD CASH. The Beemer dealer got into his wallet first.
You know it, and I know it, but lets not deprive all those ladies of their beliefs.

Mental note: never go see rippers with AJ. He'll be borrowing money off you outside of 3 seconds flat!
