I Consider Myself An [fill in the blank] Rider
This forum for all intents and purposes specific to the R11S, R12S, and now [though not in forum name], the HP2 Sport. My visceral belief is that we have some damn good riders on this forum. Sooooo, let's hear from you.

You forgot the "I've been to the track so my ego is faster than yours!" option.

 There, I've voted! No skills, hell, I'd answer the same way on the other forums regarding my skills. But then again, I'm good at getting bikes on/off centerstand and seem to have a butt that can tolerate long days in the saddle. Twisties still scare me cuz all I have to practice on here in NE FL on on/off ramps of I-95 and I-10.

Skilled, but a LOT more to learn.
Remember, Knowledge and Skill has to be improved, challenged, and increased constantly, or it vanishes.

I will vote after "sport riding" is properly defined in Bubba's should HP2S owners secede from the union thread.

Well I'm way faster than any of you as long as we don't have to ride together. And I'm still not as fast as I was before anyone who knew me then rode with me.
And I heard that Rossi sleeps in Bob Hancock jammies. Or something like that. I gotta get some rest.

I'm faster than those I don't ride with and slower than those I do.
'Course I ride with a lot of folks who've been riding longer than I've been alive... ;-)

Volunteer Anyone?
Ok, we need a volunteer to take a screenshot of the poll, view the 'who's online' and watch who votes for what category when the poll vote changes. Any volunteers?

You need to start a poll first on who has the most computer experience

I'm one of the few here that gives unsolicited advice to the pros.
I must know my limitations cause I'm alive.

The slower the bike, the faster I feel.

My Harley is WAY louder than your bikes which makes me faster and better in the twisties than all you guys! Especially when I come flying by your houses at 3 a.m.
