The Other Guy's Ride

[scubabrew]

I don't know if I'm the only one who does this, but I must be a Warrior snob. I'll be driving my Warrior, truck, or in my van pool, and I will see other motorcycles and either by visually identifying or listening to their exhaust note, I will think to myself nope that's not a Warrior and then they are summarily dismissed, like they do not even exist. It takes one **** of a bike to get and keep my attention, and I see a lot of other bikes, but I don't see a lot of Warriors. I probably need professional help, or a couple of vodka and tonics. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

dont worry ill seek help with you....i also see other bikes and think mean things about them not being as awesome as i am for owning a warrior. i tell myself that i feel bad for them not being as smart as i am for buying the correct bike.
poor lost souls.
but i see now as im typing this that i must sound like a racist would to someone in a third world country.
ill have a double whiskey and dr.pepper

I'd go with the Vodka and tonic. Much cheaper and more effective than a shrink.

Ha ha, I do this too. Although I do on occasion see a "naked" or streetfighter motorcycle that catches my eye. But I end up brushing off most every cruiser I see that's not a warrior as being inferior to mine, lol.

Cruiser, love the warrior, couldn't be more than happier , but still like the victorys, Harleys I just think man you really over paid.

I live in KC area on the Kansas side, and there are hardley any warriors out here too, most people that see my bike do not even know what it is and classically mistake it for a Harley.

Agreed on kinda being a snob when it comes to seeing other bikes and thinking... nope not as good as mine.

[warriordog]

I get that way when I hear a Honda with aftermarket exhaust. It still sounds like a Honda.
Sometimes I can identify the bike by hearing the exhaust note. Hondas still sound like Hondas no matter what exhaust

[daboy_57110]

I hear ya warriordog. For some reason when I hear one I think it sounds like a briggs and straton.

Another one here for the warrior snob list! Working at a car dealer that loves to dabble in bikes allows me to ride many options I wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity to ride and I haven't experienced one yet that gets me like my warrior. I just feel bad for everyone else.

Most other bikes today are decent machines. However almost all of them fall into the generic category. The Warrior is a different breed, it has soul. It is kind of like the Ducati, it just has that different aura about it. It just fits you like your old favorite pair of jeans. All I know is it made riding REALLY fun again. When I got mine I had a couple other bikes I thought I really liked, I just sold them on ebay. Just had no desire to ride them anymore. This hasn't ever happened to me before. I haven't had the Warrior long, but it feels like I've had it for years, it just fits just right!
