So recently I went to an evening event held by a local MC, they have a rule that you can only join if you ride a Harley but I like to support local groups. It wasn't that well attended, but they turned out to be a good bunch of guys and we chatted for a few hours. Mostly their tales were of runs they had been on and the parts that had fallen off their bikes. Two had had carbs fall off, one had burst a tyre after the bolt on the front fender came loose and gone into the side wall, the same guy lost the pinch bracket on the front axle just before he pulled in that evening. There were many more, too many to mention.

They all seemed interested in the F6B but were Harley till they die. One person asked me, after telling me that every winter he strips his bike down and locktite every bolt, what I did to my bike last winter. My reply was added a cup holder for the wife.

As I was leaving I was told you should buy a Harley, I had to laugh, after all they said I'd stick to my Honda.
