With the 105th going on in southeast wisconsin........Its funny to see how many other bikes come to "celebrate" the 105th. Yes we are all bikers! I have a harley too, but I find it great to bust out the SM and be the black sheep. I get more positive comments on my SM or speed four than I EVER do on my Fat bob. Althugh their is a lot of Harley bashing on this site, this is something special... I gotta go and rock out to Lynard Skinard for a whopping $8


Just say NO........To holiday riders! 05 SM Black s.s.long slashcuts Ghetto FREAK 150/45 3.5 1shim 07 R3 Black Beetle bags, Jardine exhaust, PC3, Gipro, secondary removed, triple k&ns

Yeah I'm in northeast Illinois about an hour south of Milwaukee. There sure has been a lot of North bound harley traffic on 94 lately. Not sure if I'll make it up there or not this weekend, have to find out what's going on.

I'll need to correct your spelling "Lynyrd Skynyrd" it's a southern man thing. Have fun.

It's not speeding till you get pulled over.

The only way you can make that statement is if you qualify it with the stipulation that during the time Triumph wasn't producing bikes (1-7 years, depending on what definition you use), Harley's bikes (A.M.F. models) didn't count either. And I don't think you'll get much argument either.

The thing I find annoying about Harley is the EVERY 5 YEAR anniversarysuperspeciallimitededitiongottahavethisnewpaintscheme bike line they have. OK I get it, Harley is an established company, 100 years calls for a celebration, but jeez, they have been doing this since at least the 75th year, every five years

Just try missing your wife's birthday once. You'll find out what a big deal it is.
