Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Sometimes it's not the size of the dog in the fight, rather it's the size of the fight in the dog.

 Good to see the Harley rider had the sense of humour to stick it on you-tube

It's not Harley vs. Vespa. It's Harley rider vs. Vespa rider. Swap rides and machines and the outcome would likely be very similar.

There is a saying an old buddy used to say to me that stuck; "it is more fun to ride a slow bike fast than it is to ride a fast bike slow." A lot of truth in that statement and is probably why I love me Bonnies so much

Two up on the Harley vs that Vespa???? On that road, I'd pick the Vespa.
That is a road that I'd love to blast through though.

03 Bonneville America
69 BSA Firebird Scrambler
73 Yamaha TX 750

The whole thing is cooked anyway. At that rate you never would've seen the vespa again from the harley after the first couple curves. If they didn't stage it the video would have been awfully boring after that.

Let's see... Taking a girl for a ride on his new Harley. Wearing leather and taking it easy so she may go again sometime. She's excited about it and taking a video of her first motorcycle ride. Even without experience, she knows the scooter rider is pushing his luck riding like that without protective gear. She's hoping to record large patches of skin being peeled away while he screems like a little girl.
Or...they just got blown off by a squid on a Vespa.

I rather ride a slow bike well than a fast bike badly.
