The OhioRiders groups I sometimes link up with, have a large contigent of cruisers. So far I haven't had word one about what I ride. And most, so far are pretty good riders, even in the twisties.
Now at restraunts and places like that, the conversations can be a little different, that is when my Smart Ass light comes on. And I usually get my lunch paid for with stats and things.
Ride safe all.
