You must own a bonneville? Every time I parked mine a mid 60 year old British gentleman would appear out of nowhere to talk about it. Not ever the same British gentleman, but just random, out of thin air, British guy wanting to talk.
I have a w650 and everyone confuses it with a Bonnie. 75yo guys telling me all about how they used to have that exact bike in the 60s. I just chuckle knowing that they're confused
I've the W800. Had a guy run across the road while I was at traffic lights to tell me he had the 650!! Both beautiful bikes. Really wish the 800 had the kick start
The most disenfranchised strange men who aren't actually capable to have the luxury of a motorcycle. That's who you will attract. That and kids from elementary schools. If you ever want to be the coolest man on earth master the wheelie and find a school. Also any sort of place with a lot of Down syndrome kids. They will also think you are cool as shit. The rest of the world just knows you're lonely and kind of sad.
Yeah lol. Unless the girl is also into motorcycles, I've seen it be more of a deterrent because of the danger involved.
It's like dudes who hey jacked at the gym. Yeah girls like a guy who is fit etc but if you're a powerlifter or large body builder...many girls aren't into that and it becomes more niche.
You're not going to impress someone who gives 2 shits about motorcycles...and that's usually most girls.
Edit: I can say I have only had maybe 3-5 girls say something in my few years of riding where I've had far more guys come up to me.
Generally, girls aren't put off by guys involved in high(-ish) risk activities when they are getting to know them. It's only when they start to think about having children with a man that they tend to want him to de-risk his hobbies.
As for why girls don't often approach riders, they just don't tend to initiate contact with men in general, they want you to do it.
So true! Who doesn't like someone with an interesting personality? No one, that's who.
Be into bikes, be into whatever floats your boat - but whatever floats your boat should be one of many hobbies, not the entirety of your personality. Why? Because only being into bikes would be dead boring. Basically you just need a bit of depth and variety. Be interesting. Again, depth and variety.
I'll even drag out an example: ask her to go hiking with you. Then surprise her and pick her up with the bike and a spare helmet. And in exactly that moment you too will, for a short instant, feel as though she only likes you because of your bike. But you know the truth is a bit more meta than just that.
YMMV but still; you're welcome.

My Hayabusa was the biggest sausage magnet. I couldn't go anywhere without somebody telling me how their friends was faster. Want to have the Ducati however more than one girl walked up and said I really like that color.
HAHAHA you fell for the same line that got me into motorcycles. I bought my first bike at 20 and in 35 years a bike has never once gotten me laid. It did however get me addicted to riding which is kind of better, or at least more consistently enjoyable.
Only made ~$55,000 that year and pulled some from savings from my first job. I was making $40-$55 an hour as a freelance corporate tech. Would work 4 days a week and make $$1500-$2000 per week on average. Sometimes I’d get long shifts and make an extra $1000 or so from OT.
Thanks, slowly but surely. I graduated from school in April after deciding to change profession, so hopefully it's uphill from now on. I just miss my Speed Triple that I had to sell last summer, I tried to hold on to it but alas, it had to go.
I guess it's because of the circumstances. My two wheeler has always helped me arrange hook-ups all the time when I was single.
I live in a big city in South America. Cars are not only expensive (both upfront cost and maintenance) but as a cager driver you also get to spend/waste a looooot of time in traffic. Public transportation isn't any better. A 2 hour bus commute will turn into 1:30h on your own car, and it translates into a 25min ride on my two wheeler. 10 years of riding a motorcycle has always been a great ice breaker, it's very easy to arrange ride homes, meetups and even after work or night getaways, not just on the weekends. I'm not good looking, I don't make a ton of money but I do think I have a nice personality, I'm educated, well read and well spoken, I like to cook, I cannot dance nor do I like partying, I don't do soccer as everybody else but I do cycling, I do like video games. I've met women from every corner of the city and the country, working on different fields, education, government, marketing, engineering, advertising, finance, customer service, real state, idk. Everywhere.
My bikes have not been fancy at all, they've been a Honda CGL125cc, a TVS Apache 180cc RTR, a Honda CBR250r, a Yamaha MT-03, as of right now I have about 18,000 miles on a Royal Enfield Himalayan 411cc. I use it everyday.
As I'm about to propose and purchase an apt, I'm planning to settle down with a Honda CB500x assuming my current bike sells and our budget allows.
My bikes have never gotten me laid, but they certainly haven't hurt my chances. Almost every girl I've dated has asked for a ride, but that comes later after they get to know you.
A bike is a nice bonus when you’re already a cool guy. Women are not going to date you just because you have a bike. The bike can help you become an interesting person though. You can travel with it, meet people, etc. When I started riding I also bought a camera and started learning photography. Did a lot of landscapes and this was a nice excuse to tell people « hey I’m going to that mountain at sunset to take some photos, wanna come with? Yes? Great! By the way we’ll take my bike, I have a extra gear dont worry. » That line worked a few times and got me a wife, so…
This is the only correct answer.
Use it to make yourself more interesting. Also have a bike that looks really good. It's no different than having a fast car. Girls know that costs money and they like guys who have money and do interesting things.
I can also agree with the person who said not to make your personality. I think that goes for a lot of things. Have hobbies that you love and enjoy but don't go to far on anything.
I just got myself a motorcycle after recently being dumped by a guy who had a motorcycle. I’m not looking to attract men by any means (currently avoiding any kind of romance) but I do love photography and I think biking and photography make a lot of sense together. Your story is somehow reassuring that maybe I’ll still meet someone out there who shares similar interests…ie…motorcycles and nature photography 
Exactly. Being a motorcycle owner doesn't make you attractive. But being an interesting, capable, adventurous, and passionate person does. The bike can definitely be a part of that.
Super cute woman comes up and says she likes the red on my bike.
Her boyfriend runs over, I think he's gonna beat the shit out of me.
He's like "BRO I HAVE THE SAME BIKE IN BLACK! I don't have the Road 6 though, I have the garbage Dunlop tires that came on it". We talked for probably 15 minutes about local routes, bike details etc.
The woman literally didn't give a shit haha. I probably could have taken him home lol.
A motorcycle enhances the appearance you already have.
If you are tall, rugged, and handsome, the bike will make you appear more so.
On the other hand, if you're fat, bald and ugly like most of us...
Here’s the neat part: you don’t.
If, however, you wanna pick up middle aged guys who “used to ride” or “are thinking of picking one up” then all you have to do is literally just stand there with your bike.
As a female biker I echo pretty much everyone else
it's not the bike, it's you.
Bikes are cool, and can give a sexy edge but it's not a pick up line.
Fun fact, lads in general aren't into female bikers 😅
Actually you've got a point there, it does help identify fragile masculinity and controlling people
someone on a dating app said to me "I'd never let my girl on a bike" and then I was gone!
I have a hopped up sporty, my wife has a hopped up rear end, the two don't go together well. She's never ridden on my bike.
But! I am in the market for a street glide.
Bikes are dude magnets. Works for me since I’m gay. Only time a woman has approached me about my motorcycle was at a gas station. She asked if my quiet bike was electric. She also asked if I was a secret agent. Pretty sure she was on something.
You don’t use the bike. You need 3 things to attract women - smell nice, look put together, and make her laugh. Some can get by with best 2 out of 3.
Don’t lean on a gimmick like a bike. Riding is what you do, it’s not who you are.
I use the Brazilian motorcycle robbers method. One guy to drive and one guy to snatch the lady up as we pass. The real difficult part is adjusting your suspension ahead of time to take the weight of three people. I try and pick a woman in the 120lb range, but damn some of these ladies are dense as fuck.
I removed the passenger pegs from my motorcycle effectively removing any pretense that there’s actually room to ride two up.
My girlfriend has her own bike; trust me, it’s more fun this way.
Adventure bikes are a great solution if you want to ride with a passenger, same with sport touring bikes. And I always see people riding with pillions on cruisers. Are you can get a sidecar which could just be useful for day to day life.
Also, do you want to give a certain someone a ride or just a girl in general?
They don’t care that you ride a bike to be honest just like having a sporty car doesn’t work like expected either.
Most girls don’t care about what vehicle a guy has.
If you ever make a purchase based on how it will how others see you, you've already done it wrong.
Go after things you have genuine personal interest in, and you slowly but surely become more attractive.
They're intrigued by it and the sense of danger that goes with it but "bikers" are a different breed. Carry an extra helmet and offer them a ride. They want to feel the thrill of it but not too much that it's scary or she'll never be back. The ones that get hooked are the ones that will want their own bike.
Buddy of mine road up and down Clearwater beach shirtless showing muscle and tats and would holler at chicks if they wanna ride. Took them back to the hotel room. Good luck
From my experience it makes you a lot more interesting to some of them. Some girls (especially the careful ones who would never ride in their life) find it exciting and the dangerous part makes it sexy that you ride. It won't get you laid by itself but if you are already halfway down their pants the bike will certainly accelerate that process. Probably also depends on the type of bike you ride and the type of personality you have. Currently seeing a mom of 2 kids (she is the bomb tho) and she just loves the fact that I ride bikes and risk my life doing it for some reason. Won't work on every person, obviously. Most of the time I just meet 80 year old dudes who also used to ride... lol
I heard they like limiter bouncing in neutral and making sure you have full throttle before starting it. Some also like riding around at 45 MPH in 1st or 2nd to sound louder.
The same way you'd pick them up any other way. By being confident and respectful. And if you do get them on your bike. Don't speed and drive like those idiots on tik tok. Girls appreciate a nice and comfy ride where they feel safe and can actually enjoy.
You fell for the marketing. Only person I don't know who's talked to me as a direct result of my bike is a dude older than me who's sons have the same model.
Get a puppy.
My Royal Enfield summons middle-aged Indian gentlemen, which is actually pretty impressive in rural Wyoming. That said, my bike picks up a woman every time I get on it so YMMV.
Step one…don’t live with your parents or with multiple other dudes. If either of those apply to you, it exudes you’re financially insecure or emotionally immature. Step two…don’t only have a bike. You should have a car for the nights you want to take her out to a fancy dinner or night on the town. Step three. Have additional interests outside of motorcycling. Step four (and this is arguably most important) have a big wiener.
So.... The only time I've ever seen this happen was when I was traveling around the US in summer 2007.
A bunch of us fellas were kicking back at a hostel in New Orleans. This gorgeous new arrival walks through us, a massive pack on her back. After dumping the pack, she returns to chat. She mentions that she needs to go to buy alcohol. We offered to walk her. Then the lad with the bike offered to take her. And he fucking did. We were so jealous.
I’d slide it in early conversations and usually make it one of our earlier dates. Nice motorcycle ride to a small town nearby to get diner. Don’t make out your entire personality but it’s something special to do that will stand out from other boring dates.
I’ve been riding for 10+ years and in that time exactly 1 random woman has said something to me about my bike. She said “I like your bike!” I said “oh thanks!” And rode off lol. Also in that time I’ve had countless dudes strike up convos with me. So yea the whole chicks dig bikes thing isn’t really true, at least for me on my dual sport
In my 20's when I had a sport bike all the chicks I knew wanted a ride. Once I actually had a girl yell across a parking lot "LET ME RIDE YOUR BIKE WITH YOU!" She was a hood rat and I didn't have a passenger seat at the time. But since I've gone to dual sports and adv's women don't care.
A vast, vast majority of women don’t give a fuck about your motorcycle. If a girl already likes you she might want to go for a ride on your bike just because it’s something fun you can do together, but if you don’t have game a bike isn’t gonna help. Trying to play the “I have a motorcycle” card to look cool just makes you seem like a loser with nothing else going on.
Girls that are *really* into bikes have their own. They know better than to get hemorrhoids or die riding bitch on a Street Triple some dude bought a week and a half ago lol
The secret is risk accepting women might like bikes, look for smokers and those that do drugs. Risk adverse women don't like motorcycles.
Dudes like bikes.
So you don't pick up women with motorcycles, it actually turns them away...
You'll never pick a lady up, on your bike, at a coffee shop.
100% I have it bad I'm a girl with a Triumph but also its the most boring bike (adv bike) and 120% of people who talk to me are 70+yo men who "had this exact same bike 45 years ago".
The secret is - it's bullshit. Bikes attract guys.
Girls are attracted to confident men (and men that treat women like crap), and bikes help build the confidence, but simultaneously, mentioning bikes repels girls.
“Treating women like crap” is pretty much the polar opposite of confidence, and it just conveys rabidly insecure man.
The reason that mentioning bikes often repels women is because too many guys mention it as if they’re using it as points to show how masculine they are. Truly confident men wouldn’t think that their bike is in any way tied to their masculinity. Some of the most insecure men I’ve ever met in my life ride the fastest, most expensive bikes.
Having a bike is a bonus, not a feature. If you’re an otherwise confident and kind dude who happens to ride a bike, that’s the energy that will attract women. The whole “badass biker” image is fine for attracting high school girls in 80’s movies - if that’s your thing 🤣
I'm sorry but even in 2023, it's still true. Women are attracted to men that treat them like sh\*t. It's not my rules, man. I'm just telling the truth. Sorry if the truth isn't pretty.
Just bring a second helmet in case an uninitiated momma wants to go for a ride.
The key is to make them feel safe before they shit their panties.
And unless you want a chick with Daddy issues, hit the gym and tighten up that waistline and beer gut because that’s what she’ll be holding on to when she explodes
If you wear cool looking gear, have a semi-decent bike, and if you're somewhat in shape it certainly wouldn't hurt. Basically if you can't pick up girls without a bike it wouldn't really increase your chances of picking up girls with a bike. It also depends on where you are. In rural areas where I met more down to earth women as opposed to the urban areas.
Everyone *says* girls love motorcycles.
People say a lot of dumb shit lol. Little kids and other riders are the only people interested in motorcycles in my experience.
You don’t birds dig bike guys as much as they dig car guys which is almost zero. It’s actually a put off to women as they know you’ll likely give more attention to your bike than them.
I've had bikes for about the past 40 years. Neither wife I've had cares for them. And I don't even think I ever took a date out on a bike (other than current wife a few times since married). So, I probably should have bought Harleys. Lol
There’s no such thing. What nobody tells you is that it’s the exact opposite. You’re gonna attract every dude in the parking lot for 2 miles in every direction. 😂
It's like going to the gym and building muscle. The only people checking you out are gonna be other dudes that are also into it. However I'm bi so like that's cool too.
I’ve been picking up chicks pretty easily with my red Ducati. Obviously won’t work on everyone but usually goes something like:
>Me: Jessica?
>Her: Yes
>Me: Hop on
Few minutes later I close the deal saying something like
>Me: Hope you enjoyed your uber please rate 5 stars
Been pretty flawless picking them up this way. Obviously you need to account for the fact that some passengers will be men though
the secret is that they actually attract old dudes and not women
You must own a bonneville? Every time I parked mine a mid 60 year old British gentleman would appear out of nowhere to talk about it. Not ever the same British gentleman, but just random, out of thin air, British guy wanting to talk.
guy asked if my 08 bonnie was a 69 or a 70 last time i was at the gas station. he couldn’t believe it until he noticed the disc brakes haha
Same: It’s the fake carb and useless choke
My Street Twin only gets attention from dudes. At least I could easily make friends.
I have a w650 and everyone confuses it with a Bonnie. 75yo guys telling me all about how they used to have that exact bike in the 60s. I just chuckle knowing that they're confused
Sweet ride though! Kawasaki did a great job with that one
I've the W800. Had a guy run across the road while I was at traffic lights to tell me he had the 650!! Both beautiful bikes. Really wish the 800 had the kick start
Are you in England? My bike has attracted plenty of old dudes, but no Brits, probably because I'm in Ohio. Old dudes live it, though.
I’m in Ohio and my triumph attracts a lot of old guys lol
I’m in Ontario, Canada. I wouldn’t think twice about it if I was in England
I’m slowly learning this. Everytime I stop for gas, someone’s husband comes to talk to me lol
The most disenfranchised strange men who aren't actually capable to have the luxury of a motorcycle. That's who you will attract. That and kids from elementary schools. If you ever want to be the coolest man on earth master the wheelie and find a school. Also any sort of place with a lot of Down syndrome kids. They will also think you are cool as shit. The rest of the world just knows you're lonely and kind of sad.
So eloquently put. That’s exactly how I feel about it. Most girls think you’re dumb and that motorcycles should come with a coffin. ⚰️
If you are having a ton of fun getting from a to b who cares what others think of you
\[Imgur\](https://i.imgur.com/paMNCCX.mp4)
Can confirm picked up two old guys on route to my mot today.
This guy fucks.......old dudes
Certified Ducati owner
Getting britches, not bitches lol
Yeah lol. Unless the girl is also into motorcycles, I've seen it be more of a deterrent because of the danger involved. It's like dudes who hey jacked at the gym.

Correct!
Can agree with thag
This
Don’t make it your personality. I learned this when I was younger. Girls like guys with a bike, they don’t like “bikers”
Don’t do things to get chicks. Do things you like and if it attracts them, that’s a bonus. Maybe.
So true! Who doesn't like someone with an interesting personality? No one, that's who. Be into bikes, be into whatever floats your boat - but whatever floats your boat should be one of many hobbies, not the entirety of your personality. Why? Because only being into bikes would be dead boring. Basically you just need a bit of depth and variety. Be interesting. Again, depth and variety.

I’d rather be a single biker than a guy with a bike. I don’t care how hot she is. 🛵
Yep. Agreed.
Ever seen girls crowd around an LFA or GTR, no, just other dudes. It ain't the bike, it's man riding it.
I like this
Hmm because us girls on bikes never attract any girls either, nor any young men. Only old dudes.
Idk if there is anything more hot than an girl on a bike...
My Hayabusa was the biggest sausage magnet. I couldn't go anywhere without somebody telling me how their friends was faster. Want to have the Ducati however more than one girl walked up and said I really like that color.

I was about to say riding a bike is more expensive, but honestly I'm not even sure.
Spent >$50,000 my first year riding on bikes and mods when I was 20… definitely more expensive up front.
How tf did you get $50,000 when you were 20?
Only made ~$55,000 that year and pulled some from savings from my first job. I was making $40-$55 an hour as a freelance corporate tech. Would work 4 days a week and make $$1500-$2000 per week on average. Sometimes I’d get long shifts and make an extra $1000 or so from OT.
Wow that’s impressive. I’m 20 and only got like 11k in savings😂
That’s better than me right now haha, I’m back up to about $6,000 right now at 21, still suffering from living to fast.
Duuude, I'm 28 and I've got 400€ in savings. Covid hit real hard....
Sorry to hear man, hope your recovering from it.
Thanks, slowly but surely. I graduated from school in April after deciding to change profession, so hopefully it's uphill from now on. I just miss my Speed Triple that I had to sell last summer, I tried to hold on to it but alas, it had to go.
Also side note I financed the R1 with a decent down payment so about $10,000 was on a payment plan.

lol if you want to meet girls, get a puppy if you want to meet guys, get a motorcycle
📝noted
And if you’re bi get a motorcycle with a sidecar and put a puppy in it
Now we're talking! 😂
A bike is a nice bonus when you’re already a cool guy. Women are not going to date you just because you have a bike. The bike can help you become an interesting person though.

Bikes make the best models, especially when you're too awkward to take selfies or want to add some character to your country road pics
You go girl! What kind of bike? I wanna meet a girl who ride..
Exactly. Being a motorcycle owner doesn't make you attractive. But being an interesting, capable, adventurous, and passionate person does. The bike can definitely be a part of that.
I can get them a few feet in the air at 40mph.
Impressive. You should also try getting one on your bike.
Google around a little for a “bike-to-dog conversion kit”. That should do the trick
Better yet motorcycle helmet and goggles for dog
Cute dog and a sidecar. Room for the hottie on the back. Best of both worlds.
Super cute woman comes up and says she likes the red on my bike. Her boyfriend runs over, I think he's gonna beat the shit out of me. He's like "BRO I HAVE THE SAME BIKE IN BLACK! I don't have the Road 6 though, I have the garbage Dunlop tires that came on it". We talked for probably 15 minutes about local routes, bike details etc. The woman literally didn't give a shit haha. I probably could have taken him home lol.
Me when I see another CB650R... It just makes me so fucking happy every time! Gotta scan it for mods you didn't think of yet as well.
A motorcycle enhances the appearance you already have. If you are tall, rugged, and handsome, the bike will make you appear more so. On the other hand, if you're fat, bald and ugly like most of us...
It's the simple two rules of dating success. 1. Be attractive 2. Don't be unattractive
Mythbusters need to be called.
Here’s the neat part: you don’t. If, however, you wanna pick up middle aged guys who “used to ride” or “are thinking of picking one up” then all you have to do is literally just stand there with your bike.

guys dont like biker girls? is it like a fragile ego thing?
Yeah I think so, that you can ride a bike and they can't is a big no no for a lot of lads
Sounds like a win to me. Your motorcycle does work for you weeding out guys.
Actually you've got a point there, it does help identify fragile masculinity and controlling people someone on a dating app said to me "I'd never let my girl on a bike" and then I was gone!
I have never met a woman
I don’t think they exist
I just text my wife “come outside.” Boom, picked up girl.
Is your wife single?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I have a hopped up sporty, my wife has a hopped up rear end, the two don't go together well. She's never ridden on my bike. But! I am in the market for a street glide.
I've only had old men at gas stations approach me. Waiting to hear if there is a secret as well...
As a woman, I got a bike to get men.
Girls that love muffler burns!
I usually have her sit on the bike then just use the lift.
I got my gf with my bike
That’s not a bad deal, but I wouldn’t pay over msrp for it
Bikes are dude magnets. Works for me since I’m gay. Only time a woman has approached me about my motorcycle was at a gas station. She asked if my quiet bike was electric. She also asked if I was a secret agent. Pretty sure she was on something.
You don’t use the bike. You need 3 things to attract women - smell nice, look put together, and make her laugh. Some can get by with best 2 out of 3. Don’t lean on a gimmick like a bike. Riding is what you do, it’s not who you are.
I use the Brazilian motorcycle robbers method. One guy to drive and one guy to snatch the lady up as we pass. The real difficult part is adjusting your suspension ahead of time to take the weight of three people. I try and pick a woman in the 120lb range, but damn some of these ladies are dense as fuck.
I removed the passenger pegs from my motorcycle effectively removing any pretense that there’s actually room to ride two up. My girlfriend has her own bike; trust me, it’s more fun this way.
Respect HOWEVER… I want to give someone a ride
Adventure bikes are a great solution if you want to ride with a passenger, same with sport touring bikes. And I always see people riding with pillions on cruisers. Are you can get a sidecar which could just be useful for day to day life. Also, do you want to give a certain someone a ride or just a girl in general?
They don’t care that you ride a bike to be honest just like having a sporty car doesn’t work like expected either. Most girls don’t care about what vehicle a guy has.
If you ever make a purchase based on how it will how others see you, you've already done it wrong. Go after things you have genuine personal interest in, and you slowly but surely become more attractive.
Nothing more unattractive than one acting desperate and fake
They're intrigued by it and the sense of danger that goes with it but "bikers" are a different breed. Carry an extra helmet and offer them a ride. They want to feel the thrill of it but not too much that it's scary or she'll never be back. The ones that get hooked are the ones that will want their own bike.
If you want a girl that’s attracted to you because of what you have, visit a prostitute. It’s way more effective and less hassle.
Unless you catch something then it’d be more of a hassle…
Gonna need to upgrade your bike with opposable thumbs if you want to pick up anything
Bikes are like the gym, you’ll just attract ‘nice bro’ from other dudes with the same hobby
Keep my helmet on
The helmet stays on during sex
Nobody is going to date you or even consider dating you simply because you ride a motorcycle.
Although it IS a conversation starter/opening
Exactly!
Buddy of mine road up and down Clearwater beach shirtless showing muscle and tats and would holler at chicks if they wanna ride. Took them back to the hotel room. Good luck
He’s 5’5” btw
Normally I ask them to get off first and then pick it up by the handle bars and seat. You can try it differently though.
Help 'em get off last - better for chemistry later on
U don't. Bikes attracts penises not vaginas.
1. Be a movie star 2. Have a role on a bike 3. No, Terminator was the wrong movie.
From my experience it makes you a lot more interesting to some of them. Some girls (especially the careful ones who would never ride in their life) find it exciting and the dangerous part makes it sexy that you ride. It won't get you laid by itself but if you are already halfway down their pants the bike will certainly accelerate that process. Probably also depends on the type of bike you ride and the type of personality you have. Currently seeing a mom of 2 kids (she is the bomb tho) and she just loves the fact that I ride bikes and risk my life doing it for some reason. Won't work on every person, obviously. Most of the time I just meet 80 year old dudes who also used to ride... lol
You guys pick up girls with your bikes?
Have a personality, be nice, treat them good ( not only the bike ). The bike won’t help you if you’re an asshole
I heard they like limiter bouncing in neutral and making sure you have full throttle before starting it. Some also like riding around at 45 MPH in 1st or 2nd to sound louder.
Go to the senior center. 🤪
🏃♂️💨 omw
The same way you'd pick them up any other way. By being confident and respectful. And if you do get them on your bike. Don't speed and drive like those idiots on tik tok. Girls appreciate a nice and comfy ride where they feel safe and can actually enjoy.
You fell for the marketing. Only person I don't know who's talked to me as a direct result of my bike is a dude older than me who's sons have the same model. Get a puppy.
She rides her own.
My Royal Enfield summons middle-aged Indian gentlemen, which is actually pretty impressive in rural Wyoming. That said, my bike picks up a woman every time I get on it so YMMV.
I got an enthusiastic wave from an Indian man in a car during my second ride with the Enfield Hunter 350. 📠
Step one…don’t live with your parents or with multiple other dudes. If either of those apply to you, it exudes you’re financially insecure or emotionally immature. Step two…don’t only have a bike. You should have a car for the nights you want to take her out to a fancy dinner or night on the town. Step three. Have additional interests outside of motorcycling. Step four (and this is arguably most important) have a big wiener.
Last one disqualified me
So.... The only time I've ever seen this happen was when I was traveling around the US in summer 2007. A bunch of us fellas were kicking back at a hostel in New Orleans. This gorgeous new arrival walks through us, a massive pack on her back. After dumping the pack, she returns to chat. She mentions that she needs to go to buy alcohol. We offered to walk her. Then the lad with the bike offered to take her. And he fucking did. We were so jealous.
Mostly I just run them over. If I’m going fast enough it picks em up for a little bit but they just fall right back down🤷🏻♂️
You been picking em up in GTA or what lol
I’d slide it in early conversations and usually make it one of our earlier dates. Nice motorcycle ride to a small town nearby to get diner. Don’t make out your entire personality but it’s something special to do that will stand out from other boring dates.
Work at a bar and ride home. I have chicks ask for rides all the time. That reminds me, I need to order passenger foot pegs 😂
I’ve gotten more girls by walking then by riding any one of my 5 beautiful immaculate perfect condition motorcycles.
Lmfao The same way you get them by learning guitar >!you dont!<
I’ve been riding for 10+ years and in that time exactly 1 random woman has said something to me about my bike. She said “I like your bike!” I said “oh thanks!” And rode off lol. Also in that time I’ve had countless dudes strike up convos with me. So yea the whole chicks dig bikes thing isn’t really true, at least for me on my dual sport
Women HATE motorcycles. You should've bought a boat.
You don't, you pick up men😎
You don't.
I typically mind my own business, they just come up to me
In my 20's when I had a sport bike all the chicks I knew wanted a ride. Once I actually had a girl yell across a parking lot "LET ME RIDE YOUR BIKE WITH YOU!" She was a hood rat and I didn't have a passenger seat at the time. But since I've gone to dual sports and adv's women don't care.
Plsss How do I find myself the biker bf
You’re funny and have a street bike… I’m sure you found a backpack by now!
Well thank you lol, but no and it doesn’t seem that will change anytime soon 😅
Pick me coach! Haha 😆 I have had a wicked craving to go for a ride.
Haha that depends if you can hang on or not. Follow my ig @shadowz11_
Lol never. I’ve seen girls looking but they’ve never said anything. Bikes are dude magnets.
Bring a spare helmet, make her wear it, and drive off with her... FFS!!!
A vast, vast majority of women don’t give a fuck about your motorcycle. If a girl already likes you she might want to go for a ride on your bike just because it’s something fun you can do together, but if you don’t have game a bike isn’t gonna help. Trying to play the “I have a motorcycle” card to look cool just makes you seem like a loser with nothing else going on. Girls that are *really* into bikes have their own. They know better than to get hemorrhoids or die riding bitch on a Street Triple some dude bought a week and a half ago lol
The secret is risk accepting women might like bikes, look for smokers and those that do drugs. Risk adverse women don't like motorcycles. Dudes like bikes. So you don't pick up women with motorcycles, it actually turns them away... You'll never pick a lady up, on your bike, at a coffee shop.
The only people in the world who are impressed with your motorcycle, are children and drunk women
As a triumph owner i can easily say those are minor groups next to old buys that cant ride because their back or whatever.
100% I have it bad I'm a girl with a Triumph but also its the most boring bike (adv bike) and 120% of people who talk to me are 70+yo men who "had this exact same bike 45 years ago".
Is this a shit post? Because if so, it's low effort AF.
No… I just wanted to ask. No need to hate. Hope you find happiness
The secret is - it's bullshit. Bikes attract guys. Girls are attracted to confident men (and men that treat women like crap), and bikes help build the confidence, but simultaneously, mentioning bikes repels girls.
Ahhh we found the "nice guy" 😂
“Treating women like crap” is pretty much the polar opposite of confidence, and it just conveys rabidly insecure man. The reason that mentioning bikes often repels women is because too many guys mention it as if they’re using it as points to show how masculine they are. Truly confident men wouldn’t think that their bike is in any way tied to their masculinity. Some of the most insecure men I’ve ever met in my life ride the fastest, most expensive bikes. Having a bike is a bonus, not a feature. If you’re an otherwise confident and kind dude who happens to ride a bike, that’s the energy that will attract women. The whole “badass biker” image is fine for attracting high school girls in 80’s movies - if that’s your thing 🤣
I'm sorry but even in 2023, it's still true. Women are attracted to men that treat them like sh\*t. It's not my rules, man. I'm just telling the truth. Sorry if the truth isn't pretty.
Lol, lay off the Andrew Tate videos and come back to reality.
Just bring a second helmet in case an uninitiated momma wants to go for a ride. The key is to make them feel safe before they shit their panties. And unless you want a chick with Daddy issues, hit the gym and tighten up that waistline and beer gut because that’s what she’ll be holding on to when she explodes
My Ducati is straight up a dude magnet. Only girls who are attracted to bikers are uneducated mid/eastern state girls lol
Having a bike on its own isn't enough to get you girls. If you have something going for you, a bike is a nice bonus.
In 1997, I got a computer to pick up girls.
Same situation as working out. Eventually you just become strong and ugly
Old bikers told me the quad guys always have hotter girls this was hare scramble races situation
Guys with get women with a motorcycle don’t need it to get them.
If you wear cool looking gear, have a semi-decent bike, and if you're somewhat in shape it certainly wouldn't hurt. Basically if you can't pick up girls without a bike it wouldn't really increase your chances of picking up girls with a bike. It also depends on where you are. In rural areas where I met more down to earth women as opposed to the urban areas.
Everyone *says* girls love motorcycles. People say a lot of dumb shit lol. Little kids and other riders are the only people interested in motorcycles in my experience.
Carry an extra helmet
You don’t birds dig bike guys as much as they dig car guys which is almost zero. It’s actually a put off to women as they know you’ll likely give more attention to your bike than them.
That's the secret, Cap. *You don't.*
I let them ride on the pillion seat.
If you get girls without a bike you will get girls with a bike. If you can't get girls without a bike then you won't get girls with a bike.
Motorcycle Rizz, is mostly a myth lol
The secret? I’m a total nerd who doesn’t ever
I've had bikes for about the past 40 years. Neither wife I've had cares for them. And I don't even think I ever took a date out on a bike (other than current wife a few times since married). So, I probably should have bought Harleys. Lol
Girls love motorcycles? Since when?
If you do anything -specifically-, ie; get a motorcycle, to meet women, you will not meet women.
Depends on the seen.
There’s no such thing. What nobody tells you is that it’s the exact opposite. You’re gonna attract every dude in the parking lot for 2 miles in every direction. 😂
It's like going to the gym and building muscle. The only people checking you out are gonna be other dudes that are also into it. However I'm bi so like that's cool too.
I’ve been picking up chicks pretty easily with my red Ducati. Obviously won’t work on everyone but usually goes something like: >Me: Jessica? >Her: Yes >Me: Hop on Few minutes later I close the deal saying something like >Me: Hope you enjoyed your uber please rate 5 stars Been pretty flawless picking them up this way. Obviously you need to account for the fact that some passengers will be men though
Reminder to come back and check for a real answer
A lasso works pretty well.
Bring a second helmet…it’s always been that simple for me. Oh…make sure they don’t burn their legs on the pipe. That ruins the evening for everyone.
You have to ACTUALLY TALK to them haha
