1/3 the weight of the machine you ride is the norm now, isn't it?


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

Well Keith, I hope you know that eatin' a salad now and then for lunch instead of those Big Macs, would be MUCH cheaper in the long run than buyin' that new T-Bird.

(...though I admit, probably not near as much fun!)


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)

I think that's a sidecar tire.

I had a thumper in the 70s with a similar tire / tread package.
It got mighty exciting when tipped over near the chicken strips.
Kinda like tap dancing at the edge of the Grand Canyon.

Nah..

Old style bike tyre. Me dad's bike has the original tyres on, and they are square like that.
