I have been offered that oppotunity on several occassions but, I can only afford the T Shirt.

There's hope for Oscarkind yet.

I've ridden a few Harleys, and by and large, I quite liked 'em (I'm a cheap date - anything free usually does the trick). I just couldn't see how they were relevant to me personally.

Mind you, I felt the same after riding Ducatis. I could see how they would appeal, but not to me.

I guess the thing I struggle with is how some people grasp onto a particular thing to validate their entire life. The type of people who are aggressively political, gay, vegan or Martian. You know, the people that need you to know what they are so that it must be mentioned within minutes of you first meeting them. I love riding my bike, but I have friends and colleagues who probably don’t know that I ride bikes, because it just ain’t relevant.

Egg-zactly. Right tool for the job, Tim.

What the average hater can't grasp is that it's the right tool for someone else's job. A mile in the other's shoes etc.

I still loves me KLR, much to your derision :-P

Except that you would have to be a tool to own one

What do you ride?

[Flip]

Coming from a man who rides a shirt lifter I can live with that.

What do you ride?

675 Daytona and a CB919

Oh, and the Wife as well as SR22

CB919

Great bikes, those. Very... reliable.

Yes, definitely very reliable.

A sensible choice, sir.

I asked Mr Crosby about his Road King and with a rye grin he said...''bit of a old compressor to be honest but mum likes it''.

There are some likeable 'arely's out there. If I were to look at any cruiser though, it would probably be a Victory. I like the look and style of the Judge...add some V&H pipes and its job done.

I bet mum would like it. It vibrates, therfore it saves on batteries.

I have to admit I do not hate Harleys or their owners. They have their uses. They make for great mobile chikanes....
