Are ADV riders nothing but posers?

[Combo]

Come on guys................It's more fun if we make fun of ourselfs than others.

Look at me......I put wheel tape on an a Adventure bike and I think it looks cool!

I just thought it was funny, you making fun of folks and here you got a Avatar stopped (I am guessing unless you are foolish enough to get a photo while moving) on a paved road with your matching Klim gear and D/S helmets on. Looks more like a photo I saw on Facebook, you know some one so vein they take a picture of themselves so they can show the world how cool they are.

All in good fun...............dont dish it out if you cant take it.

That's poke fun, not make fun. There's a difference. I'm pretty sure he himself had a self image in mind when he made the 'list', as evidenced by his piccy.

Sorry, been out riding... ??? You know, that thing we do instead of starting silly topics on the forum.

I have only a few of things to say here.

1) Pluric does have a sense of humor. Everything else about that dude is suspect though! Glad I don't own sheep. Him and a guy named Bustanut Joker on the FJR forum would be giving them all names and 'promise' rings.

2) You're all poseurs if you don't play the Moto-Tag game on this forum. Click Me! Great excuse to go for a ride, if going for a ride wasn't good enough.

3) Double poseur if you haven't dropped your bike riding in something that challenged your skills in the last week.

Oh yeah, triple poseur for riding two up on a adventure touring/dual-sport bike. :-\

What if I have been out hunting, harvesting, gutting, and butchering deer? Does that excuse the lack of use of the bike?

You can do that on a bike. No excuse. ::007::

I don't think I could haul all my gear and the deer over 4 hours of highway. Heck, I wouldnt know how to load it all for a 5 minute run. I guess I am an embarrassment

Classic !


BMW R1200GS

 

[creggur]

Everybody knows only the "real" ADV parts and accessories come from Germany! If you aspire to be a "poseur" do it right, man! ::024::

Dammit! What was I thinking?
Wait, how many Poseur Points do I get for using this WaspWorks extra sticker?

I would think a reference to BMW on a sticker on my bike all the time should be worth a ton, no?

Damn, I'm a triple poseur. ::010::

Ditto. Or that puts me up to 9 actually.

Oh my, it's like lions and tigers and little champazees' all dancing in unison. I rode two up on mine, and did ADV tag on it with my wife, on a gravel road, I guess I'm a quadruple quinttriple poser (sspell checkk doesn't likke "poseur").... OH my, I better sell it quick, get a HD, and steal some village people leathers, or was that the Oyster Bar? I better call Pluric and get the address of the sheep farm. ::020::

As far as challenging my skills. Does commuting in DC traffic on a daily basis count? And hell if I'm going to drop it in this traffic. The last time I rode with Sail2xxs I dropped it twice, does that count? )

Geez, the more I read this, the more I need to get a BMW and join the Starbuck's crowd. ::015::

::010::

 

[patrickg450]

that is one of my fav vids.........and I was trying to justify a BMW for about 2 years. Then I got me ST.

 

[bloodline]

I got one of those new RAM x mounts. Rode to work this morning with my iphone in the mount, Pandora on the badfish channel piped to my Sena and my Klim on. Hardcore, right?

Saw one other bike in 15 miles in rush hour traffic.

Fu%*ing A! You're a HERO dude. ::008:: ::012:: ::012:: Eat more venison. It makes the roads safer for everyone.

There is always hope for the triple poseurs, buy or encourage her to buy her own bike. It's more stressful at times, and you have to maintenance to another bike, and she might choose some POS because it fits her better than a decent bike that doesn't break... Oh wait, F me, never mind. I don't wish that hell on anyone else. Glad my wife doesn't read this forum...

Poseur Points? PP? Pee Pee... ::001::

 

[ThatsLife]

Alright, let's be serious for a minute. I have an honest question.

Whale foreskin should be waterproof, right? Why would you need Gortex also? Poser points?

Gotta have the appropriate label on the riding gear.

 

[klunsford]

Yep, Poser is such a harsh word... It is funny though and I enjoy posing every chance I get... And Yes I stand on the pegs because my butt hurts riding down smooth dirt roads to get to the good stuff... All of you guys are really a trip... That is why I like this forum... Ride on brothers.... ::015::

X2........

I stand up on the pegs in all the little towns, .... So I can pimp my pose............

 

[HoebSTer]

What in the Hell does using a Ram mount constitute us as being a Poser anyway? This I am a little confused about!!! I haven't had the time to upload and memorize every road in the world into my mushy brain, therefore I use a robust Ram mount for my GPS.
