They say the "Leisure Rider" wears leather chaps and vest, and is going through a midlife crisis? Uh no, that would be the Drifter types.

I guess I'm a mixture of all biker types and sportbike styles.

I guess I'm more like the chameleon.

Well I am with ya there. I always think of the people with DWI's and no license when I see them because that's all I used to see riding them.

Hmm, well in my experience, most chopper riders are younger, like 30-35, and their needs aren't very complex, they just want to show off. Cruiser riders on the other hand are older, and more likely to get into that mentality of pretending to be part of some "drifter/road-dog brotherhood" that's bigger than his comfortable suburban life.
