It's a pretty bike and he is always badmouthing my F6B about rice burner and well you know all the jokes, and when he starts his up it sits there and shakes like crazy. So I call it his $30,000 dollar weight loss machine and told him if he sits on it long enough he should be able to lose 50 pounds.

ride the best
ride a mile
walk the rest
If you're riding with someone who wants to shut it down in the rain, just tell 'em "We're not made of sugar. Carry on."
My old gal went over 140 miles yesterday - on her own power! Even 80 in a 65 making glorious noises all the way.
I was dressed in dark blue jeans and a grey "pirate logo" polo shirt, full face helmet, and an air-mesh jacket. No exactly typical....
She started right up at every planned stop.
There were no unplanned stops.
But I think that quote is funny, as I have pushed my '73 Ironhead more than I should have.....

Never ride faster than you guardian angel can fly! I try to remember that when I am twisting on the throttle and I have seen God standing by the edge of the road shaking his finger at me on several occasions. Slowing me down, so my guardian angel is able to keep up!
