It's bad to laugh, but that's pretty funny

I wonder if he countersteered in a rut

Have had a few started on a Honda Shadow, then had a naked 76 Goldwing, Suzuki Volusia, and am currently on a Suzuki Katana, not the fastest but comfortabl, reliable, and looks good to me.

Mine is a 125 cc. Honda Shadow. In Spain i'ts the biggest bike we can drive only with a car driving license. I will be happy with a Triumph or Harley Davidson, but first I need my bike license, and now I don't have time to prepare the tests!

Better a close shave on ones face than on your bike on the road!! My preffered rides after a shave? For perofrmance my 07 V-rod. For fun and attention my restored '69 BSA T-Bolt. Now that old girl is a smile!!

Nice BSA!

Anibal, some riding is better than none!

Hi Gents,

Very nice bikes you seem to have. Few more will follow from me. I've been riding since 1977 when i was 13 years old and from all this time there's been only one or two years i've been without a bike.

Here's my current bikes. The third is still waiting for restauration and will get to my wife as soon as i get it finished.

Well done. Where is the second bike from?

The second scooter is an old Finnish brand "Tunturi" that was manufactured between 1959 and 1981. This model has a name "Pappis" (grandad) as it used to be very popular amongst oldtimers. My model is 1979, and was restored by me. Puch 50 cc engine and Ping carburetor. It is also the last model year when they made scooters that was possible to drive like a bicycle in case of the engine fail or gasoline ends (although not very comfortable).
When i was young there was a local wisdom saying that there's a similarities between driving Pappis and having intime relationship with very large-sized woman: most have done that but nobody is willing to confess that. Sorry for my inpolite folklore.
Nowadays this scooter is mostly used by my wife and kids (15 and 17 yo). I do not have a heart to drive this old scooter too much.

You're Finnish! I had the pleasure of meeting Matti Hautamaki this last January at the World ski jumping championships. I was working with Anti doping and being the bronze medalist Matti had to be tested. AND who can forget lasse Viren and Juha Mieto?? (Please ignore my bad spelling)
