Jim Silly-Balls posted:Oh boy I can’t wait for the boomers on advrider to weigh in on what makes a woman attractive. My guess is an inability to vote? Oh they already do that in most threads unprovoked. I don’t even click on threads mentioning anything about women in the title because you just know it’s going to be equal parts creepiness and misogyny.

I had totally forgotten how horrifying any subject related to women is on advrider. Just a bunch of washed up thirsty boomers pontificating about what THEY would do if they met that woman next to the scooter.

The thread is motorcycles with "souls."OP posted:What is it that makes certain motorcycles have "soul"? quote:I was thinking along these lines the other day. When I bought my KLR, it had 2,238 easy miles on it. The previous owner had done some commuting on it, took it in for the 500 mile checkup, hadn't even come up on the next oil change after break-in. Not a scratch on it, never been off pavement, no farkles. I on the other hand have re-learned dirt riding on it. It has been my do-it-all bike and I have personallized and modified and wrung the crap out of this bike. I have dropped it, wheelied it, jumped it, slid it, I have flipped it over backwards. Pushed it through sand, buried it in mud, flown over gravel, crawled over rocks, zigzagged through the trees. Even though I have flogged it, I have always been very meticulous with the maintenence of this machine, (its how I show her I care). As we crossed 22,238 miles I wondered if she was happier before I bought her, when she was clean and new and gently ridden. I swear at that moment I felt her pull just a little harder as she whispered to me "what are you waiting for? Just twist it''. Yep, soul. quote:I always knew my old Harley panhead had heart, but about 25 years ago I got dosed at a dead show (squirt gun shot to my eye) I went out to the parking lot just to check on the old girl, and I had a two hour conversation with her. pretty cool trip, and I still have the bike. I will never sell her. If she can talk she must have a soul. :lol3 a guy who's right and made a handful of posters really mad posted:owner insecurity + dollars spent + obviousness of primitive construction (oil leaks anyone?) + amount of fiddling needed to get it to run properly for 10 minutes before requiring a teardown + 10xmodel year = soul quote:My RF is a like a really finicky chick you'd take on a blind date, but she has no right to be finicky cuz she's kind of ugly and has bad breath. Then you get drunk and take her home and she gives you a really good ride. You don't really want to put up with her crap, but you learn that if you do she can rock your world. quote:I just now realized why bikes are often compared to women. You can intellectualize and make lists of ideal qualities and such, but when the right one comes along- that all goes up in smoke. quote:Twirl some spanners on her. Fettle her parts. Then she'll show you some emotion. an argumentative hair-splitting dong posted:So a bike with character IMO is one that's interesting, something a little different, a little bit odd and quirky in looks and or mechanicals and is generally pleasing, but there's no getting around the fact that otherwise, it is bland. You don't feel a connection.

Of course my bike has soul. My bike has soul because I hastily transmuted my brother to it before he was lost to the void during a botched attempt to bring my mom back from the dead. You monsters. Speaking of monsters, advrider boomers are thirsty creeps. Notice nobody attributes masculine terms to their motorcycles. Nah it's always a girl they want to shag.

You monsters. And they don't feminize their bikes because of their innate tendency to love and respect women, it's always attributed to some combination of moodiness and sexuality, which pretty strongly shows that they have no real thoughts about the other person in their sex life either. So basically anybody that can produce an explanation for why they think their bike is female is trash.

My bike is just a giant steel and alloy penis hand crafted with my own two hands (mostly the right), lovingly lubed and stroked far more often than those squares at Suzuki think is appropriate.

I guess the doohickey counts as soul? Most enthusiast KLR owners perform a soulectomy though

My bike is like a horse or a big dog I guess because sometimes when I've been riding hard through a crazy storm or freezing fog, or if traffic is crazy and I've just dodged away from getting creamed by some moron, I will pet the gas tank and say "good bike, you're a good one" or similar words of appreciation

This is reasonably acceptable. Beasts of burden have a long history of being owned and used, and culturally there is a lot of "man and his horse" dynamic. Advrider peeps fancy themselves owning, using, and controlling a woman (or more likely girl), and that's beyond weird when they start expounding on it.

Its advrider. The mods would literally ban you if you brought up such a point. They are very strict about anyone who sows dissent or calls anyone else. I bet the mods are in that thread posting the same stuff.

I loved my ladybike so much that I sold her to a stranger in a foreign country. That's how I went from being a human in traffic to human trafficker.

Old men who describe their bikes in sexual terms likely do so because their poor wives, if they ever had one, are tired of pity loving them. No one else is going to do it without cash payment up front. The poor bike can't say no. It's a waifu pillow for middle-aged mechano-weebs.

Dumb boomer memes are dumb and all, but the “trophy or recognition plaque” is especially confounding because Harley-Davidson literally operates stores full of branded junk (my favorite garbage being the Harley wall clock which revs at you on the hour, something I’ve literally seen hanging in a guy’s office) and no motorcycles. Also don’t pretend the Aerostitch-and-Schuberth combo is anything but a GSA rider badge.

Yes yes millennials don't ride motorcycles. This is a commonly understood fact that can be easily seen in the various minibike, supermoto, sport bike communities. The fact that Harley is outdated overpriced garbage that the used market is flooded with, or it's "culture" that posts things like this, has nothing to do with scaring them off. And by them I mean anyone below the age of 37. You know. Kids.
