what do ya reckon ?

FWIW im not hard core, just a bike nut , who enjoys all types of bikes ( excluding scooters unless im on holidays in Bali )

 Beats me, I'm a business owner that rides a Harley and loves doing it. What defines a hardcore biker anyway? Is it a 1%badge? I really don't know to be honest?

FLSTC,  this will bring out the real bikers and wannbes debate again, its ok we only had one 9 months ago...

Lmao, I wasnt even a Harley rider 9months ago

Who can afford fuel these days

i run a small business too so manage to make my own spare time. been on here alot lately cause looking for new bike. but if ya mean hard core biker as a tough cunt well that aint me but if you defy it as someone that loves doing long rides with missis and mates and revolves most things around bikes including work, well that would prob be me. when i im not on the harley i too am mostly out bush camping with the crf 450(dirtbike for you older fellas).

Fuck i worked out how to do one of them smilie fucking things earlier and have forgotton already. to much illegal substances in younger years

I leave it on go for a ride so I guess I am multi tasking.

It's this or Ebay.And I aint got any money.
TV these days is a bit shit with all of them reality shows.

I'd consider myself 'soft porn' until my SofA vest arrives for the trip to Bello.

Hardcore? No! But, being on here sure as hell beats actually working. I work 50+ hours in an office, run my own business in my spare time, try and raise three kids and every so often actually get to go for a ride. But this place sure helps those 50 odd hours pass and even helps me stay sane...no rephrase, makes me realise that I'm not insane!

So much so I'll post twice...

the first sign of insanity is double posting.

I got my hog patch sewn on the other day, don't mean I'm leading the way from Dubvegas to bellingen but ha ha

Im a dentist

so of course I cant show you my face

I tend to come and go. Work 4 on and 4 off. Two day shifts and then two nights. Check in on night shifts when it's quiet. Catch up on other stuff on days off.

Isn;t Aussie HD owner demographic like 50 year old male blue colour workers these days, doesn;t leave alot of room for hard core

one thing to get on a computer, but take a lap top on your ride shows your a real nurd LOL

i still use a carb to feed ol Ethel

cheers

been said before,but how the fuck do you define hardcore?

I think Hard core guys or Club members could cruise through this kind of forum, Harley's are part of the interest and they do relax the same as us Harley owner/riders

I don't think they would Identify themselves though, especially club guys.

To me a hard core biker is someone who loves bikes the life style and going away with a few mates.I remember when the 1% use to go away a fair bit but now its just poker runs and they may go away on their national runs.I cant see why the 1% wouldnt have a look at forums from time to time and i agree i dont think they would mention what club they are from.
