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!!)

Either I dont get out enough or this is a west coast thing,,I dont recall noticing anyone around here with monkeys stuffed or otherwise mounted on thier bikes.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams
