Thread: Motorcycles

been trying tio figure out pics since I got on a week ago at 60 years old I just got my first pc 6 months ago so still learning will get my granddaughter over here to help me so I can make it happen , and by the way the old shovel was my first bike 42 years ago and still have it!

Sorta posting as a joke, but these things are incredibly practical here. It's my daily commuter, family station wagon (I've seen 3 adults, 2 kids, a baby and the family dog on one), and moving van (twice I have moved my entire apartment on one, including full size desk, office chair, etc.)



As you can see in this typical Taipei street scene, scooters are everywhere - most people's choice for commuting, since parking can be found and by driving between cars you can move more quickly through the highly congested streets.

Here's my daily driver (weather permitting) a 1980 KZ440. I've had it for six years and am slowly beautifying it. Also have a 1969 CB350 in the garage waiting for restoration someday.
Have a nice day,

my most recent purchase and my first Harley!

Guess I'm gonna have to get out the camera as well.

This summer I traded in my 1998 Harley Road King that I have had since it was born for a new bike. It was tough parting with the old girl as we have had many a great adventure together.

So, I figured that this new bike had to be something special and Mama was dead set against a new Bagger. I ended up buying the 2013 Harley Road King. Go figure. Luckily, they transferred my air horns over to the new bike. Love the way the new one handles and the larger engine.

Pics to follow.

Have fun.

Here's a shot of my namesake (Royal Cake). The name came from a 2nd grade student of my wife's who did a doogle of a submarine and named it the Royal Cake. I got such a kick out of it I named my bobber the same after I finished. This took about a year to build. I'd like to do another if I can ever part with this guy. The pick is old - I now have white walls and a leather seat after my glitter seat melted

I comute 60 miles round trip every day on my motorcycle. It guarantees HOV entry.
First bike was an 05 Road King Custom.
Sold that when I deployed and when I got back a year later, SWMBO already had the next one parked in the garage waiting for me, a 2009 Road King Classic. At the 30,000 mile service, I traded her in for my current ride, 2013 Electro Glide Ultra.
This past summer, my two older brothers and I took all our wives on a 2,000 mile trip up into Canada (Niagara Falls), all through Ontario and back. Trip of a lifetime.

You know what they say, "You never see a Harley parked outside of a psychiatrist's office.


I'm having issues uploading pix from Kuwait...will post them when I return in a couple of days....





I 'think' I figured it out....

Lynn did you get it there at what used to be Minors Harley? I went up to Surdyke in Festus to get my trike lots of great riding around there and yes its hard to let go my wife still cant get me to let loose of my old shovel that ive had now for 40 years keep riding and im looking forward to my first shave from my razor that I got from SRD when I get back home thanks tc

Did, It's Bootheel Harley now. Did some shopping around in the St. Louis shops, but the trade in and price there was pretty fair and the service is good as well as local. Did a something a little different on this bike though. In the past, I have always gone with pipes under the bags. On this one, I did the Vance and Hines two into one pipe and have been totally impressed both in performance and sound.

Stop by next time your in town.

I have the Vance & Hines short shots on my bike..great performance and sound. Unfortunately around these parts the police don't care as much for said performance and sound..ask me how I know lol
