Winter is horrible. Only got into the 60s today. I may have to winterize.

In Thailand lots of the thai guys riding jap bikes put harley/indian decals badges etc.on them. They'd get laughed out of town in Australia. Chaps were popular at one time, but not so much now.Lots of comments about "the village people"

Walkin' around @ a bike ralley in steamy sultry sweltery * South Georgia, I saw a pair of young lasses sportin' halter tops, jeans and CHAPS, with all of the biker bling all over these posies. And then... after following them for hours, I spy 'em slidin' into a PONTIAC !  Chaps. July. Pontiac. * classic example of a literary tekneek called alliteration

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

What a shame. There are some really nice Kawasakis out there. Why would they want to deface one and risk it being mistaken for a Harley?

Yep, I agree Chet, but probably for the same reason we've seen a few examples of Kawasaki W650s posted here over the years where the owners have replaced the Kawasaki tank badge with a Triumph badge.
(...they're attempting to apply some "heritage" to their machines)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Great, now I've got to claw my eyes out!
I'm old enough to remember the commercials and I never associated them with anyone like that! 
Thanks, Dwight.

Ya know folks, I'm startin' to get the impression that if they ever come out with bubblewrap that contains the scent of Jean Nate' within each and every air cell, we'd never hear from Wade ever again around here!
