For years, I've seen a lot of bikes with stuffed monkeys hanging from the sissy bar or sitting in passenger seats... Some are dressed up in full leather w/ a helmet... some are just hanging... Just this last weekend, I saw a 3 in row.. Bikers w/ stuff monkeys... what's the deal with that?

If your monkey was bad... would you spank it?

Heck, I've been known to spank a perfectly good and well-behaved monkey.

Given the opportunity, any monkey will misbehave.

I saw a video recently referring to "trunk monkeys"

Quite comical.

Triumph riders dont spank their monkeys. That particular past time is a Hardley rider SOP

Triumph riders DO spank their monkeys, if by monkeys you mean "friends with Harleys."

"Spank the monkey" has a totally different meaning this side of the pond (one which would contravene the AUP!!)

If I read you right then "spank the monkey" has the same meaning here.
