Dave over at ScooterDave.com has started a biker’s dictionary. It is a ‘work in progress’ as he puts it. He is currently only up to ‘Fuel Management System – Carburator’. If you are new to biking or just want to brush up on the lingo, give it a look. You can find the dictionary here.
Even if you are an experienced rider and think you have heard it all, perhaps you haven’t. And you might just get a good laugh. Here are a few of my favorites.
Back Warmer – A girl on the back of your motorcycle.
Bar Hopper Bike – The cool customs and pristine bikes that only come out of the garage Friday and Saturday nights during the summer (and only if it’s real nice out -never in rain) to prowel from bar to bar. A motorcycle that is not very comfortable on longer rides, yet lavishly styled. Rigid frames and hardtails fall into this category.
Clyde – cage driver (usually the bastard that cuts you off).
Fender Fluff – Nice lookin’ babe on the back.
Flower Pot – A cheap helmet non snell-approved head protection device.
