How do you deal with judgemental riders?

[Sean]

So, this may be a girly question, but after a few years of this it's finally gotten the best of me. How do you deal with people that won't shut up about how you bought the wrong bike? I have a few friends I ride dirt with and one of them--who I consider a really good friend outside of riding--just absolutely will not shut up about how I should have bought a 2-stroke. His reasons don't even make sense--he says I'll be less tired, but I'M NOT FUCKING TIRED WHEN WE RIDE! He is...because he's on a CR250R. :wtfru:

Then there's the Honda people that won't shut up about how anyone who doesn't buy a Honda is stupider than mud. This particular guy happens to be both a 2-stoke guy and a Honda guy.

I'm a big boy, I've been riding motorcycles for a long time, I'm capable of making decisions based on my own circumstances which happen to be different from yours. Not a legitimate argument apparently.

[Trip]

2-stroke guys are typically more tired around here on our trails. They are more work in the mountain trails from what I gather.

Just tell him to shove it up his ass.

[Homeslice]

It's just the natural tendancy of men to pick on each other. If it wasn't about bikes, we'd be insulting each other's looks or weight or athletic ability or luck with women :lol:

[OneSickPsycho]

"How about you ride your bike and I'll ride mine?"

"I'll remember that next time I was thinking about forcing you to ride my bike."

"I was just thinking the same thing about your wife/gf/fiance."

[Kaneman]

Kick in his teeth with a big pair of boots.

[OneSickPsycho]

Anytime you know he's going to be away from his bike for more than a few minutes, piss on it. Then when he says something say, "you know, I think you're 100% right... but Honda's smell like piss."

[Sean]

"How about you ride your bike and I'll ride mine?"

"I'll remember that next time I was thinking about forcing you to ride my bike."

"I was just thinking the same thing about your wife/gf/fiance."

Yeah, he can dish it but can't take it. That's par for the course for this type of person it seems. Give anything back and you just get a 1/2 hour argument.

Today at lunch: "So me and Brian were talking and we thing both you AND DJ would be better off on two-strokes." STFU seriously.

Piss it is.

[Kaneman]

Can you take him in a race? If so that'd be the best way to shut him up.

[neebelung]

I likd any and all of these. Seriously, tell them when they buy and hand deliver a bike for you, their opinion will matter... Until that day, eff off.

[Sean]

Not in the dirt. I'll take him on the track easy but of course he will never go there.

[Particle Man]

fuck his sister. send him pics.

[Ninjakel]

Piss in his exhaust :lol:

[Kaneman]

Piss in his sister's mouth?

[Sean]

But two strokes are so much cheaper. You could get a 125 for half of what your KTM cost.

[OneSickPsycho]

Piss in his sister's mouth AND put it in her exhaust.

[Sean]

fuck his sister. send him pics.

She's like 275lbs.

[Kaneman]

She's like 275lbs.

Roll in flour, locate wet spot.

Bloodhound Gang FTW :lol:

im white which goes with anything but i can come in any color

[TommyHotWheel]

I deal with that at work, tell them "I didnt buy what you like, so fuck yourself and your outdated p.o.s....Unless you wanna be a man and buy me what you want me to ride..." By the way....Dont waste time on his sister...go for his Mom...and wipe it on his Dads tie when done.:?:

[101lifts2]

Is this Animator and some other dude? Just jack him in the teeth real hard and tell him to stfu. I mean seriously..punks.

That or just don't ride with them if they are annoying. I know if the dudes I ride with started talkin shit, I'd tell them real quick to keep the rat trap shut.

I knew it!
:lol

Different brian.

[Tsunami]

wow, seriously who cares what type of bike you ride?
They are acting like a bunch of high school girls!
I like your taste in bikes...

Dude she's totally hittin on you. Make your move!!

[101lifts2]

Hey Sean u talk to Animator? Haven't seen him post in ages....

[Flexin]

I'm sure its just because they can't hear you over that loud ass 4 stroke. Your bike might have made them deaf. Right it on a piece of paper. Maybe they are not being pricks after all. :P

Fuck them. Ride what you want. If they are buying then suck it up and ride the 2 stroke. If not its your money, your choice.

I don't pay attention to all of that.

I love 2 strokes but I didn't have much fun pushing one out of the woods in motocross boots (in the mud) which ended up being about a 5-7 km push. :td: A 4 stroke would have been much better on that ride.

[azoomm]

:lol: I was going to have you tell Brian get off the cotton rocket and ride a real bike. But, since it isn't the Brian we know and love...

[marko138]

Piss in his sister's mouth AND put it in her exhaust.

Classic OSP.

:osp:

[z06boy]

As long as I'm paying for it I ride what I want and don't really care what others think for the most part. Hell I like most bikes so I get along with most riders anyways.

[HurricaneHeather]

To me, it seems as simple as saying, "you're irritating me to the point that I don't want to ride with you anymore. This is my bike, like it or, buy me another."

[neebelung]

Ya know, that's pretty darned direct and might work damned well!!!!

[askmrjesus]

You know, I'm not even sure why this is a question. You Californians are just too PC for your own good. Luckily for you, I happen to be a certified assertiveness trainer.

Let's try a role playing exercise.

I'll pretend I'm your friend, you pretend you're not a 12 year old girl. Ready? OK, here we go:

Me: Brian and I think you should get a two-stroke.

You: I think you and Brian are faggots. In fact, I've been meaning to ask you if you use "two-stroke" as a control word when Brian is ass banging you.

Me: You look tired, you need a two-stroke.

You: You know who else looks tired? You mother, the bus-stop whore.

Me: I think...

You: Who the fuck cares what you think? You think Dick is a food group. Are we gonna ride, or do you have to fill in for Dear Abby today?

See? Easy.

:lol

I am surprised you don't charge for therapy here.

[Tsunami]

:lol:

I love askmrjesus.

[HokieDNA01]

I would tell him "next time you buy me a bike, I'll take your thoughts into consideration. I paid for this one, and its my choice. END OF STORY"

[Smittie61984]

Tell him if he should have bought a CR500 and stroked it if he wasn't such a pussy.

[Sean]

Tell him if he should have bought a CR500 and stroked it if he wasn't such a pussy.

This is the kind of response I was looking for.

What makes you all think I haven't told him to fuck off already?

[the chi]

Just stop hanging out or riding with them. Problem solved. When Nancy boys start complaining you dont play with them anymore, maybe they'll be ready to STFU.

[MILK]

I can't reply to your question because you don't ride a Honda.

:lmao:
