Iowaguys' reply:

then why'd you start this stupid topic in the first place? what was the point? to laugh at someone who was in the process of wrecking on a motorcycle? have you ever been down? it's not anything to laugh about and it hurts. i wasn't going to give you the satisfaction of posting a reply to this as it's got prejudice and stereotyping all over it, but you need to hear from us "Harley owners". we don't all wear "dewrags", and I guarantee I could whoop you on a bike anywhere on any terrain as I am one of them HD owners who know how to ride. Yeah I am cocky and have a lot of self-confidence.
Man, I still don't see what your original intent was with this, and I think a lot of guys that normally stick their tongues up your *** are biting their tongues now, keeping quiet when they really think you're a tool for starting this rant. Isn't there enough websites out there for watching stuff like this or looking at pics that we have to bring it to the KLX 250S forum? It's like you're shooting one of your own troops with this. Just cuz someone doesn't wave at you doesn't mean they hate you or think you're a jerk for not riding a HD. I have some nerve damage in my left hand (yes, from my motorcycle wreck back in '96) and I can't spread all my fingers out to wave especially after it's been wrapped around a grip. Do I still try and wave? Heck yeah, but sometimes I don't get a wave back. I sure as heck don't get mad and go cry about it on some web forum. OK, I'm stepping off the soapbox.

This is just like slavery and discrimination, it just doesn't go away and some just have it in their system just itching to let it out for some reason or another. Most HD riders are nice guys and know how to ride, and then some don't.
