A group of older blokes of both genders was there having coffee. There was a Guzzi, a BMW, a Triumph T120 and a Suzuki 1400 at least. As I was leaving a couple of them came over and told me how much they liked the CB1100, what a lovely bike it was, how marvelous Hondas are and so forth.
I don’t much care if people don’t like the CB1100 or any other bike for that matter, but I do wonder why they feel the need to be so unpleasant about their dislikes. It’s almost a case of ‘methinks thou dost protest too much.’
...or car or whatever.
I don't even give it a dam...f... .
Always bought and will buy the things, motorbikes, cars etc. that I like and got and get happy with them. If not I sold them and tried others. It's good, healthy for your soul to free yourself from opions other people have. Maybe recognize them, if they are worth a thought or two and drop the ones which aren't up to yours. A lot aren't.
Everyone has a meaning only a few have knowledge or are seriously 'involved'. But it's a matter of taste....yes, somehow. The CB is up to my taste and I ride her, not the ones who don't own them or haven't ever ridden one....
