- I ride a
- 1993 Suzuki RF600 and a 2007 Royal Enfield Bullet 500 Classic.
It's a question that's been bugging me for years.
I have always considered myself to be a biker.
I only have a bike license and have never even driven a car, I mend my own bike, I ride EVERY day and have done for over 17 years.
I ride all year regardless of whether it's raining, snowing or god forbid...sunny.
I used to do dispatch riding on my bike in the 90's/00's, I hang around with mainly biker types, I vlog, ect.
Motorcyclists, I'd class as being more casual.
They are mainly car driver in good jobs who can afford bikes as a weekend plaything, they have new leathers and new bikes and they all disappear in the winter or when the weather gets bad.
The only thing I have against some people is that they try to separate themselves from being a 'biker' as it's seen as being sort of a lower class thing than being a motorcyclist, there's basically a bit of snobbery involved?
Now I know I'm being slightly hypocritical here, but I just thought I'd get your view on this
Here's the vlog I made today of it anyhow.
