Kinda, Took a 50 mile ride for lunch at the McDonalds thats a mile away today. Parked near 2 other bikes An HD bagger and some non descript sport tourer (yammie I think). As I head out to my ride there's three females standing near the bikes.Looks like 3 generations Grandmother,mother and teeny bopper. Just as I get there the grandmother says to me "Pretty bike, we decided we like yours best". And you guys say these bikes aint chick magnets.

Nice.
I went with a buddy to the Danbury Harley last weekend. He wanted to look at Road Kings.
They had some kind of open house/bike show going on. I got a good laugh at all the people who stopped to check out my Tiger 1050. And next to me a black Speedy.

I came out from paying for fuel yesterday and there's a lad (with his girlfriend) taking pictures of my bike. In fact, since I put the solo seat on, it's got more attention than ever. Oh, and the TORS, with 5k miles on them, are sounding better than ever.

Eeh! I wouldn't get all jazzed about this if I were you, Jackson!
Five'll get cha ten that the teeny bopper really liked the Sportbike the best, the mother liked the Harley, and it was ONLY the grandmother who appreciated the classic good looks of your Triumph. And they just all deferred to Granny in this matter out of sheer respect for her age!(and evidently wisdom)
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)

Chick magnet = Grandmother
Couldn't have been the mother or teeny bopper could it, no, it had to be the granny.

Well I certainly meant no disrespect to any members of the fairer sex. And i kinda think granny would have "dug" being called a "chick" looked like a burned out hippie. And the
mother was wearing a ty-dye (not real ty-dye of course) Tshirt.So call my lapse of PC a flashback.May Gloria Stienem
forgive me.

Laugh if you will at Granny, but Sarah Palin will be in that category in about 4 more months, and she's pretty hot. She could probably kick our A's, too, if we made fun of her. She ain't no 'girly girl.'
