I was disrespected by a group of young adults at the park...once. That was when my MB's were tamer.

Now NO ONE laughs. They mostly drop their jaws.

When my MB was still pretty new I had a kid of only about 10 or 11 yrs come running out toward the road screaming, "That's an illegal bike! You can't ride that!" What made it puzzling to me was that his attitude wasn't just know-it-all or smart aleck, this kid seemed to be really furious with me. If he'd had some sort of weapon I might have been in trouble.

Otherwise both kids and grownups are curious and enthusiastic when they have anything to say.

I rode my MB to 2 annual motorcycle rallies here. See my photo album for a pic of my bike in a row of motorcycles. A few young (late teens-early 20s) Harley or crotch rocket riders made disparaging remarks, but all the rest were interested-curious-supportive. Some even knew the first Harley-Davidsons were rack mounted motored bicycles. I had a ball with most of the bikers and will go again next year. Highly recomended.
