What is it about motorcycles?

Towards the beginning of the summer I purchased a motorcycle. I had recently owned some scooters, but felt I needed to go bigger and badder. Since my purchase I cannot believe the crap people give me for it. With the scooters I received sissy comments, but with the motorcycle people look at me like I'm crazy and have a death wish. Its hard to ignore some of the comments people have, and at times it makes me second guess my purchase of motorcycle. But to be honest my experience of riding the motorcycle has been nothing more than fantastic, and rewarding to my wallet at the gas pump.

This if my first real experience of riding one and I've really come to love it. Until now I never thought of myself as a biker, but now I'm hooked and can't help but want to learn all that I can about bikes and share experiences with others. I feel that by informing myself about the many possible topics of motor bikes I can really help myself and others feel more comfortable towards motorcycles.
