Ever since I start telling these girls I got a motocyco, instead of saying "how are you doing?" they say "how YOU doin'" and start making tongue swirlies and googlie eyes. Hmmm....

So my question is: Do bikes get you more attention from the opposite sex? What are your experiences?

I can definately tell you, seein a female on a bike does attract me....course we dont see that hardly EVER in my town. Except for one chick that rides a GS500F. havent seen her in a long time though .

It gets me more attention.  Doesn't seem to get me more dates.

I am a 24 year old guy, if that makes any difference.

Like Roadstergal, I've noticed it can get me more attention. I'll be in traffic and some cute girl the next lane over, or ahead of me, will be smiling or waving, or if a group of girls are on the street when I ride by, a lot of times they will wave, scream, whatever. Haha.  I am like -->  

So it definitely is a way to get attention, And it also makes a great icebreaker. But for the record, most girls that I've actually dated and talked to, really are not that impressed. A couple of them want nothing to do with it; they don't want to even hear about it, let alone get turned on by it!  

So I think it is a good attention getter-ice breaker for sure. But it is no magic cure-all!

Having a fullface would!   :lol:

My fiance hates my bike to the point where she basically pretends that it doesn't exist.  So, the bike may, at times, actually be preventing me from getting the normal amount of attention.

Plus, I look like a bear on a tricycle, so girls out "in the wild" normally just snicker.  My fiance does enjoy that aspect of the bike  

Well...  Hot chicks are about 20x hotter when they're getting on and off the bike...

Ugly chicks with nice bodies and full-face with tinted visors are about 100x hotter on a bike (with the helmet on).

Fat biker-mamas are just as hot on or off the bike, helmet or no...

Now...  Guitars make every chick hotter.

Only if a hot chick could play guitar on a motorcycle...  In a bikini...   :nana:

A Snell-rated full-face bikini...

My girlfriend admits to my bike being part of the reason I first caught her eye.  Not the reason we're still together though.  She doesn't like the round headlight on the GS, but that doesn't matter because I love it.

Well...I attract attention from all races, species, and genders, but it's all about the ears.

These are mine:

So if you see some silly looking biker with spotted dog ears commuting along the peninsula on Hwy 101, that's me!

I have to agree with the majority here.  I get WAY more attention from girls when I am on the bike.  For instance on the way back to work from break a couple of girls, who were behind me at a stop light, kept up with me then got beside me and the passenger stood through the sunroof and flahed me.  The driver simply waved with a kissy face.  As for dates, like stated above ice-breaker not a date maker.

Yea I ride a rat ... I mean total rat ... and I get nothing but dirty looks ... like they allowed you in this town ... how ... man we got no standards ... suits me fine ... nice running and reliable rat ...
Cool.

I bet y'all would attract more chicks with a pink R6.

:lol:

I always thought nice cars were more attractive to girls. Back in the day I had a Turbo 280ZX that seemed to act as an aphrodisiac for certain females. I always thought it was an odd thing, but I wasn't really thinking too deeply about it during those days. I would just take the car out for a breakfast of high-octane gas after a night out.

I think maybe it's because a girl can relax in a car, but if she's inexperienced with cycles her adrenaline is going too strong for her to get in the mood cause she's afraid of leaning with the rider. Like some have said it's hit and miss.

well.....from my experiences......I really haven't seen any change in the amount of women that flock to me pre-bike to current.....perhaps that's because I'm at least 50 lbs overweight....and my mesh jacket hugs me kinda snug......

.....of course got to take into consideration that I'm on an SV.....which looks nice, but lets face it, it's no GSX-R or CBR with all the pretty graphics.....

.....either way, this is what I'll say.....getting a bike to get chicks (no offense meant), is like getting married to have sex, which is like (as I believe George Carlin put it) buying a 747 to get free peanuts....

Duh.  It's because you can make out/have sex in a car.  Awfully tough on a bike, especially in full gear.

Heh, that's not what I meant of course. I wasn't talking about the acutal act, just the conversation and so on.

BTW, having sex in a 280ZX would not be much better than trying to balance the act on a bike.
