Ah ha!

Finally, validation!

[Could you possibly come here and back me up when I’m *yet again* asking Himself to adjust my handlebars “just a little bit more, please”]....;D

Better yet, I’ll send somebody that can make the point very well indeed.

My wife.

I didn’t even know they were still on the air.

It’s an ugly bike.

‘Is she good at whining?’

Nope, just a great shot with a handgun or pistol grip shotgun.

When you have that, you don’t have to ‘whine’ you just state what it is you want.

Somebody needs to tell the Tuttles that sometimes, less is more. That bike is way too busy. Junior is getting too carried away with the tack-ons.

I’ve liked alot of their bikes (like the Fireman Bike), but this one is just plain goofy looking. I’m afraid the Tuttles have lost their edge.

Just curious but why is it always Harleys that get customized? I've seen some custom jobs that were just plain dumbass stupid..........

In my opinion, in terms of stock bikes, the Suzuki Boulevard M-50 is the best looking bike I've seen. As far as reliability, I have no idea but then again nobody seems to be chopping them up.

You are right!

It’s funny, I never noticed how rough a ride that scoot was. Hell I was 19 and tough, I rode the thing on dirt fire-roads and the street.

Later I got a ‘50 Hydra-Glide and rode it until the late 50’s when I got into sports cars which I owned until ‘65, then I went to metric bikes.

I had a new ‘91 1200 cc Sportster until 2000 when I got the ‘01 Suzuki SV560 that I’m still riding, in all owned I’ve 22 motorcycles, 3 were Harleys.

IMHO, trikes were made for extended forks. Keeps the turn slow and easy.

I’ve got baby apes on my Softail. They are as comfortable as a recliner. I call it a “rockin’ chair situation”.

Yep, they are all the same, too long, with different paint.
