At first I thought the film was about some idiot of a Power Ranger on his Crutch Rocket but I quickly dropped my guard when that lovely Norton appeared.

Not meaning to offend but I had to turn DOWN my speakers to dampen that cheesy music. (I know what you meant was to hear the sound of those pipes.) 
Live to love, love to live.

Besides the very cool Norton and that very nice old SL280 Mercedes, I gotta say all the ladies in that video weren't all that bad on the eyes either!
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)

Sorry folks. I don't always explain my intentions with my posts(ask Dwight). I am a man that speaks few words. I apologize for that. My video wasn't to involke criticism but rather than the old ways and history and understanding of motorcycling of days past with a bit of humor and the way we always imagine it should be. Which, I believe, 80% of most riders just don't get. Yea..the movie wasn't top tier but I should have included this clip of what we are not. Oh...and I love the Norton Commando. There was music? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2jwBWYkpZk

Wow, ya'll are too judgmental. There was nothing wrong with that movie. Clearly it's low budget, but they did a good job.

And with THAT, I JUST won a little BET I had with myself here, John! Ya see, I just KNEW you'd fall back on that tired old line of yours if you'd respond to what I said! And thus, if ya THINK about it, my bet, being between me and myself, WAS "all about myself"!!!  (...well, with just a little bit of YOUR smartass thrown in for good measure anyway!!!)

Oh, btw John, what's with all this "ya'll" stuff, anyway?! So tell me, when exactly did MONTANA move south of the friggin' MASON-DIXON LINE???? (...AND, isn't that Good Ol' Boy expression actually spelled "y'all"????)

Wow "D" you kinda gone off the deap end there. I like the video quite alot. The cinematography was very interesting, I think the grainy look was intentional to add to the vintage feel. Nice bike and car.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

I never thought I'd type these words, in this order, ever. "I agree with Chad." Anyway, Big D, I won a bet with MYSELF that no matter what I type on this here forum that I inherited you'd go off on some looney effin tangent. Like death and taxes, one of the few things we can count on, I'm just never sure which part you'll pick up and run with. Apparently once you become admin (or god forbid, owner--don't take it if ever offered, trust me) you're not allowed to express an opinion without a barrage that inevitably spills over into other forums. So, please, regale us with your next bonkers rant, oh great court jester. C'mon, buddy boy, whatcha got?  Maybe you'd like to make a king analogy? Emperor's new clothes? Heavy is the head that wears the crown? Spin it... let's go... I ain't got all day... Actually I do, I worked 105 hours over the last two weeks but that project is over and I'm bored today...  (crap, I think you're rubbing off on me...  )

Well, it's CERTAINLY about TIME!!!! 
(...NOW, if we could just get YOTA to say more than just 5 freakin' words in a post around here, THEN we could REALLY get this party started around here!!!)
