Harley clowns

[Crasherfromwayback]

the generalisation being that everyone riding a motorbike has at least something in common with other motorbike riders, so they can get chatting. If after five minutes it turns out they're twats, then its easy enough to move on....

100% correct. I meet plenty of twats that ride all sorts of things.

Keyboards mostly though eh?

How True. I met some really great folks at the HOG Rally. Champion blokes. While I was wearing a Harley jacket and boots.

The one before that I met up some great folks at a Triumph RAT Night - In a Triumph Jacket, and maybe gloves.

The Suzuki Boulevard rally I had the Tee shirt, but lots of blokes had big Suzuki Jackets, guess what! - some real nice folks there too.

Honda Riders club - ditto.

They is just folks doing what they enjoy doing.

As a rule - generalisations don't work.

Yeah fair call, I guess the whole matching the pajamas to your ride is pretty narly

A Harley Jacket is actually the 'best' in my large collection.
I get given them for my gig. I have maybe...10 at the moment. Different makes and climates.

The coolest one I have by far is the James Dean Triumph in a distressed leather, but as for functionality it's the H-D unit.

Very heavy leather - top abrasion co-efficient, excellent venting, best armour, built in back protector, waterproof - NZ waterproof, phone and MP3 player provision, outstanding draft exclusion, reasonably understated logos become hi-vis reflective in headlights, beautifully lined and extremely comfortable.

It's quite outstanding.


Stepping out after the ride - It's the James Dean sans furry collar.


Edit - Yeah - I know a pyjama and robe type. I take the piss too, but you know what - it makes him happy.

That's quite the wardrobe you are sporting there.

You recall Hale & Pace's Pub Fashion show? I'll see if it's on YT.


In defence - I have shared the wealth. There's a few on here in dave-me-downs :-)

[Big Dave]

the generalisation being .

Are your generalising?



Oh. I think I've now reached pointless drivel. Others may debate the time frame.

Nah - just tee shirts, with oil on them.

That's a ripped down Belstaff jacket isn't it. God, those were the days.

The Triumph (classic) one, is the one with the hammer and monkey wrench in it
