Riding Test
« on: September 24, 2008, 10:19:56 AM »

Oh come on...give it a try...it's just for fun
http://helloquizzy.okcupid.com/tests/the-motorcycle-personality-test

Here is my results:
Compared to other takers
32/100 You scored 3 on moxie, higher than 32% of your peers.
97/100 You scored 14 on zeal, higher than 97% of your peers.
33/100 You scored 2 on pomp, higher than 33% of your peers.

You have the characteristics of a master street rider. On the way to work, your love for riding sometimes leads you to take the long way. The 50-miles-of-back-roads long way. You live for the perfect road, and plan vacations around riding.
You need a bike that can handle your addiction to the twisties as well as comfortably carry two on a weekend trip through the mountains. Your bike is the FJR1300. Can I borrow it someday?

You scored 8 on moxie, higher than 74% of your peers.
You scored 4 on zeal, higher than 38% of your peers.
You scored -4 on pomp, higher than 1% of your peers.

You, Sir, are a Hooligan. You have a bit of an attitude, and you don't care what people think about it. Your idea of a good time is seeing how far you can carry a wheelie between lanes of traffic. You crash a lot, but that's part of the fun, isn't it? Anyone who doesn't like it can sod off.
Your weapon is the Triumph Speed Triple, a powerful and godawful ugly bike that fits your personality perfectly.

My score below.  The narrative says I am destined to ride a Harley.  Uh, no thanks.  I miss my 03 1800 Retro but I am enjoying my Wing.  Try the test; it is interesting but flawed.

You scored 3 on moxie, higher than 32% of your peers.
You scored 1 on zeal, higher than 20% of your peers.
You scored 2 on pomp, higher than 34% of your peers.

You scored dead center average, lacking any of the personality quirks that normally drive people to motorcycling.
However, if you do ride, statistics would suggest that you are destined for a Harley-Davidson, probably something in the Softail line.  ???

You might have noticed that's a lot of moolah for an (arguably) obsolete piece of machinery, and you're too rational and attitude-free to need the Biggest and Baddest that the marketeers tell you to buy. A far more reasonably priced taste of the Harley Kool-Aid is the 883 Sporty, a fun little beast that leaves you with plenty of cash to customize.  :-X

On the other hand, the only reason I'm bringing up the Harley-Davidson product line at all is due to the fact that Harley is the choice most people think of when they consider getting into motorcycling, and that's mostly because they don't know much about the alternatives.  ::)

Thought experiment: if you were the only person left on earth, and you could pick any motorcycle you wanted, what would you choose? Best looking or best engineered? Your test results don't really point in any direction strongly, so I'll try to nudge you towards substance over style.  O0

What a cool result...

You scored 9 on moxie, higher than 82% of your peers.
You scored 9 on zeal, higher than 75% of your peers.
You scored 6 on pomp, higher than 74% of your peers.

Which makes me...  A 996! 

You exhibit an overexuberance in all respects that cannot be satisfied. Your attitude and ego are over the top, yet you actually have the skills to match. Its infuriating. People would hate you, but you're too damned nice. You always ride like its your last day to live, and leave bystanders vaguely aroused.

Your bike is the Ducati 996. Sex on wheels.
