    Do you have a favorite motorcycle phrase?

    After posting one of my favorite phrases on another thread, I got to thinking of all the good ones you guys may have. Maybe this has been done before (I am new and to lazy to do a search) but in my few short weeks there are a lot of new members here that may have something to add. A few of my favorites are:

    Doesn't matter what letters are on the tank, it is the same wind in your face.

    Soft leather feels real good until you are body surfing on asphalt.

    To a biker, a good cup of coffee should resemble what comes out of the crankcase after 8,000 miles.

    A good running Harley should sound like it has $1.92 in change in the primary at idle.

    You can tell a lot about a biker by the bugs on his helmet.


    I have a friend that always departs by saying "Keep the shiney side up" (sorry, I won't say that one")

    I will post more as I remember them. What do you have?

    I have two faves that I use in my signature.

    If your bike leaves you, let it go.
    If it comes back, you probably high-sided.

    The guy who invented the first wheel was an idiot -
    the guy who invented the second one... he was the genius!

    I kinda like the one ... "4 wheels move the body, but 2 wheels move the soul."

    Larry - I still get a lot of smiles from this, and the "deer in the headlight" look starts a humorous training conversation.
    Thanks man.
