Phil Goff on a hog!

[p.dath]

Can't believe it. On the TV3 news Phil Goff (as in the Labour party leader) pulled up to an interview on a hog.

Sure he was wearing a suit, dress shoes, but he did at least have a Shoei helmet on.

Somehow just didn't look right.

Glad I read the whole thread. I took one look at the title and I thought the video of him shagging Helen Clarke had got out.....

What dress code do we have for Harley riders ?:woohoo:

[laRIKin]

Well it looked like a Triumph Rocket III to me when I watched the TV one news.

[DJSin]

I thought it was a triumph too

[Cajun]

yeah about to say it was a rocket 3 not a hog, that he pulled up in. and couldn't get in to netural

[been_there]

My vote is a Triumph Rocket III...cant miss the big pipes

[p.dath]

I'm sure you guys are right. The reporter was saying something about a hog that I didn't quite pick up on.

[boman]

Yep Triumph Rocket 3. No mistaking that bike. He apparently is going to buy himself a Hardley Davidson at some stage.

[duckonin]

I'm sure you guys are right. The reporter was saying something about a hog that I didn't quite pick up on.

Yes it was a 3, and your right the reporter did say a Hog, that's why u never believe the new's media..:yes:

[ready4whatever]

Phil could be a kiwi biker ask him haha. I saw ages ago he a rider. maybe he can do something about cheesecutters if voted PM

[firefighter]

What dress code do we have for Harley riders ?:woohoo:

Jesus where do you start?;

Undeserved Mctuff expression. (really an accountant/Dentist)

Harley jeans.

Harley shirt.

Harley socks.

Harley Boots.

Harley vest.

Harley jacket.

Cappuccino in hand.

Black helmet with clear visor and sunnies underneath.

6cm chicken strips.

Pink knickers.



I think I got it all.

Christ, he looks like he's going to be another returning rider accident.

[AD345]

Now hold on one cotton-picking minute here......one bloated owners group does not a ursupation of the term "hog" make.

A Rocket III is just as much a "hog" as any bloody Harley....

Well did you see it?
Fook me, they're like sugar and shit - well more like shit and shit I guess - but they look way different.

I was cleaning up after giving my two children dinner, and just caught a quick scene, and was surprised. Didn't get a chance to take much in. I'm not even sure what the news article was about.

[AllanB]

Good for him for riding - I wish more of our politicians did and understood the pleasure of straddling something powerful between their legs (gawd knows Helen didn't :sick:).

Shame he did not have the foresight to get decked out in some Quasimoto gear first.

Anything that goes between her legs would have to be weak..:sweatdrop

[newbould]

[QUOTE=grusomChrist, he looks like he's going to be another returning rider accident.[/QUOTE]

Well he would have failed his basic handling skills test with a controlled stop that needs his foot down 3 times on the way to a halt.

But yip good to see a poli on a bike

LOL

It was a Rocket III

Apparently the dumb arse reporter cant read.

After all the brand name is splashed all over the bike.

[Swoop]

Christ, he looks like he's going to be another returning rider accident.
We can only hope.

I would prefer to see him under a bike.

You forgot

A Harley attitude

An inability to wave to other motorcyclists

Crotchless caps :gob:

A Harley neckerchief tied with the knot to one side

A missus (or mister :innocent:) that can back a trailer :yes:

An extra 30 grand on the mortgage (for the accessories only) :crybaby:

And a fucken big oil slick on the garage floor :msn-wink:

[P38]

BTW

Rick Barker rides a Harley as do several other Labour Polies.

Maybe Phill is just trying to fit in.

Well this has shot your credibility to pieces ! How can we believe the facts and figures in your other posts when you fail a simple visual test ?:shit:

But you did manage to see all this though? ''Sure he was wearing a suit, dress shoes, but he did at least have a Shoei helmet on''.

[usa-vtwin]

Harley check
Draggin Jeans check
Non branded leather jacket check
Biker boots - unbranded check
No oil stains EVER check

Nods to bikers more often than others to me

So glad I don't fit the above mold LOL

I hope no fuck-knuckles decide to vote for the losers just because their leader happens to ride a bike.

[Naki Rat]

Definitely (http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/2857089/Triumphal-arrival-for-Phil-Goff) a Rocket so just goes to confirm that the average jounalist here in Godzone doesn't know their arse from a hole in the ground and proves it by stuffing up what little credibility Goff is trying to manufacture :no:

[short-circuit]

I hope no fuck-knuckles decide to vote for the losers just because their leader happens to ride a bike.

If New Zealanders were stupid enough to vote for change (despite this meaning a right wing government during a recession), then they are dumb enough to be influenced by this.


Extra kudos for the badge on the bike BTW

Her name's Annette King - Hog is very offensive....

[ynot slow]

Watched the video,the announcer didn't say he rode a harley to conference,just Goff was thinking of getting a hog,maybe Goff thought the Triumph was a hog(to me looks like a pig).Anyway when Goff is benched and retired he'll be able to buy a bike,he'll save shitloads with free travel perks,super scheme these wanksteins created for themselves at our cost.

Dunno, can I keep my granny panties on?

[oldrider]

I am no fan of Phil Goff politically or otherwise but in fairness to him I believe it should be clarified that he has long been a motorcycle enthusiast! :ride:

The fact that he turned up to the Labour party conference on his bike is quite normal for him. :niceone:

It was not a political stunt! :oi-grr:

The fact that he rides a Triumph almost negates his stupidity in choosing the Labour party to represent! :o Then again.....:doh:.........

........but "Triumph", he got that one right! :first:

[Mekk]

Yes it was a 3, and your right the reporter did say a Hog, that's why u never believe the new's media..:yes:

The reporter said he was looking at getting a HOG, not that he was riding one.

That's why you never believe the internet.

Or the Media. How does one buy a HOG?

Open a seedy bar?

I should have said HOG bike, but it sounds redundant.

[newbould]

Stock saleyard

But then again:whocares:

[MadDuck]

Nah seedy bars dont do lattes :innocent:

[ready4whatever]

Maybe Phil can be a rider for boobs on bikes with helen on the back. or vice versa

[Pixie]

Considering the derivation of Hog in this sense,a Triumph could only ever be a Trog

[Pixie]

Aaaaaaaaggh!! My eyes my eyes

[Devil]

Well he would have failed his basic handling skills test with a controlled stop that needs his foot down 3 times on the way to a halt.


Not suprising. It's about 350kg worth of bike...

[vifferman]

There was a picture in The Harold this morning of Goff, way back when he was more youthful and more hairier, with his bike of the time, a Norton Commando. (Sorry - the online version doesn't have the pic).

[p.dath]

Nooooooo!!!! There is some soft porn that really should be censored!

For the elucidation of the great unwashed, the reporter was correct in referring to the Rocket III as a "hog". Despite myth to the contrary Harley Davidson has no exclusive claim to the word "hog". They DO have an H.O.G as the H-D Owners Group - buts thats as far as it goes.

No matter how much they might wish otherwise (http://books.google.co.nz/books?id=mS38Lo5VVjMC&pg=PA631&lpg=PA631&dq=hog+term+motorcycle&source=bl&ots=0tmaJUHFG7&sig=j36J-2mGUIy4AjrAeowAUnQtGzA&hl=en&ei=beCtSt3aJ4bgsQPi68CFBQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4#v=onepage&q=hog%20term%20motorcycle&f=false)

And there's me been thinking all this time that it was a bunch of Harley flat-trackers that coined the 'hog' name.:scratch:
Or something like that.

Never ever heard of another brand being called a hog.

Not quite :no: the "hog" term came from one of the original HD factory racers who had a pet pig and used it as a mascott way back in the old days... ie: Pea-shooter days

Looked llike Goff was on a Yellow Triumph Rocket III on tonights news
