With the onset of Spring here I thought a set of summer gloves were needed.
So off to the Motorcycle Supermarket I went.
Standing in front of the vast display offered looking like I was obviously challenged a salesperson approached and asked "what was I after?"
Gloves I answered.
"What type?"
Summer I responded
"What type?"
Black ??? I hinted
"What type?"
Large (showing my mitts to him)
"What type?"
By now I had run out of responses
So I just stared at him blankly
"What style of Bike do you ride?"
What I replied !
"You know Sports, off-road, cruiser etc"

I now realised that my choice of motorcycle had somehow limited my options for apparel.

I finally replied with just give me black.

He replied with
"What type?"

About 30 minutes later I finally had got some gloves.
 
Yeah sheet has gotten complicated since they now have to cater to the man bun wearing, latte sipping, skinny jean wearing hipster crowd that like to ride from home to the coffee shop on Sunday and look good doing it.............

Well you wont be disappointed then when you meet me. ;):D:roll::roll::roll:
 
This sounds like me when people ask me what style of motorcycle I ride...

Mid controls - not a cruiser...
More weight over front than rear when sitting still - not a cruiser...
Definitely not a sports bike

How does one classify the R3R? It is NOT a cruiser and it ****ing iris me Triumph markets it that way.

I just call it a Muscle Bike in a Cruiser Style so its a Comfortable Muscle Touring Cruiser or put simply a RevHeads Power Tourer or a Hot Rod on two wheels
