    Thanks for posting! Those vintage bikes are all art. Good times for sure.

    Cheers, Steve

This was the typical driver going in the opposite direction, then decided to make a left turn in front of me. He couldn't hardly talk & was trying to get me to exchange insurance info before the cops got there & I said NOPE!!! When they got there, they said he had delayed response & appeared impaired, so he was on something. They told me he was most likely going to jail.
    Any biker members, please watch out & ride safe. The idiots are out!!!!!!!!!!
    Yep, I also learned not to ride at certain times of the day/week (when school let out, ie when people may be in a hurry or distracted), and to avoid intersections with high accident rates. Avoid malls at Christmas when motorcycling....

    I don't know how to avoid drunks, they're ubiquitous.

    Tip of the hat to the mods, were pretty OT!

    Cheers, Steve

    It is hard to avoid the drunks because you never know what they're gonna do! The scooter I just went down on was my '03 100th Anniversary FXDWG.
    Here's my '75 Shovel I've been building old school all the way. It has a 93 inch shovel, suicide shift, wishbone frame, kick only & I have a Morris M5 magneto for it. Notice my shifter knob is a cut down camshaft from an old evo. I wanted to be different. Some have 8 ball shifters or a small piston. I also have some shaved fork lowers & a spool 21" front wheel for it that aren't on it yet.

    I might be able to come up with a genuine Fireblanks-Remorse magneto for you...

    The best American who ever lived? John Wayne. It's got to be Audie Murphy and Dwight D Eisenhower, and everyman that went ashore at Normandy.

    Yep
    I wonder how many members ride? I know Lynn has a Harley. A new thread for those that ride, although that other one is quite amusing..........
    It IS nice to know there are others here that share the same interest!
