What is the best bike for posing? You know, the bike you just take to Starbucks or the bar just to show it off and brag about it. I hear a lot of people saying it's a Ducati but I don't know, I think there are a lot more Harley posers. So what is your posing bike and why.
 
Other cbr 250r, the angled ass shot lol, best in the biz IMHO

"How much did you pay for your bad Moto Guzzi?
And how much did you spend on your black leather jacket?
Is it you or your parents in this income tax bracket?"

The best posing bike is the one you are already not riding.

Absolutely!

I had just pulled into a parking spot and a guy on one of those GIANT freeway legal scooters pulled up and parked next to me and said, "Nice Bike!" and started chatting me up about how the normal bike he rides is his R1 and how it was so powerful that it wheelied everywhere and handled so well and had a GP exhaust and BMC airfilter and he just got some new tires that were ultra sticky etc etc etc... I just wanted to get in and out of the post office with my stamps...

The vapor bike is the best poser bike because you can tailor it to whatever is required at any given moment...

I kind of thought the giant scooter was more interesting... I think it was a Burgman...
 
My Buell attracts French people. I don't know why and I didn't realize there were so many of them in the Bay Area. If I leave my bike for more than 10 minutes, I come back to a crowd of French people around it.
 
I don't think you can really lump "Harley Davidson" into a single group. I've seen a stock Softail sitting next to a heavily modified one and the chopper was damn sexy in comparison. Harley owners often pimp out their bikes and customize them in ways sport bikes have not yet achieved.

FWIW I think stock Harleys are pretty ugly.

Yeah, French people think Jerry Lewis is the best comedian ever, too. :laughing

I'm going to vote the "new" Vincent Black shadow as the best posing bike.

A couple of local bike nights ago some fat fuck rolls up on a Hardley that has a bunch of NASCRAP signatures on it, and starts running off a laundry list of supposed shit his bike has that's "special". Never had been to a bike night before, but decided to bring out his garage queen and regal the masses. 90% of the people at bike night ride sprotbiles, so the guy was tuned out almost as soon as he opened his mouth, and he never got off his bike while telling us how awesome it was.....thankfully, he finally wobbled the fuck away.

Best posing bike would be something that is old, cool (subjective), and with enough modification to reflect the owners personal tastes and wants. Anything newer than 10 years just means you have a fat bank account or a nice line of credit, and like so many other people and you've decided to buy a motorcycle......whoopdeefuckingdoo.

If you want old men to talk to you about every dirt bike they've ever owned, pose near a Husqvarna supermoto.

New? The one with the RC51 motor? Didn't that guy run out of money about 10 years ago? :confused
 
other : it's the poser not the bike.
A middle aged fat man in mix and match gear on a panigale doesn't pose nearly as well as an Asian chic on an 02 GSX-R with fully color coordinated gear that matches the bike.
