In the world of music, Harley is metal. Makes no sense to many, can`t explain it to others, despised or hated by some. They are loved by many though, like hardcore metal fans love. Wanna` get an opiniated debate started, more than any other topic?... just mention the name.

Sport bikes are way more subtle. The now defunct 600`s would evolve year over year with half a kilo lighter,0.9 more HP etc. Sport bike styling is generally similar...but now we have wings too!!

H-D is bringing back the air cooled 883 Sportster for 27/28, could be interesting but it will be built to a price point, around 10K U.S. So that means 13 to 14K here for a bare bones bike. The Bronx or a 975 Pan-Am especially would make more sense.

Seems a convergence of many things has torpedoed them, the economy, aging out demographic, politics, shortsighted planning etc. At almost 69 I`m likely at the top end of potential new customers that could swing a deal. I`d love the new `26 Low Rider ST, in orange please, but $31.6K plus tax? I...

That was his cousin, Awful Knawful.

The one I mentioned looked like a kinda` shark fin on the grip end. That was mid 70`s or so, what you have pictured probably works better.

Reminds me of a crash in L.A. years back. High speed tumbling SUV, ejects the driver and first responders can`t find him in the dark. Eventually he is spotted way up in the tube frame of a big overhead sign, quite deceased. See the crash of MM93 in MotoGP the other day? Bikes tumble very well.

Used to be able to buy grips with that paddle thing as part of the grip, maybe still can. They were OK on forever long straights but found `em to be a PITA mostly elsewhere. Ever ride a real early CB750 with a separate cable to each of the 4 carbs?,.... there was a workout.

C`mon in.. welcome back

Died yesterday at age 85. Icon, suspension pioneer, `69 Grand National Champion, Inductee into 5 halls of fame. And for many of us here the man who sparked the motorcycle flame as the star of On Any Sunday. The opening scene of him sliding his XR750 sideways on the mile at 100mph can`t be...

"Lookin` mighty good in them tight jeans boy!".... Say it in your best southern Sheriff voice. :p

Haven`t heard anything regarding the crash, obviously skilled Officer, good weather riding in a straight line. Medical, mechanical, or animal strike or just ran onto the shoulder? Crap deal whatever.

That was the thing, revving the nuts off a bike and keeping them on the boil gets old real fast on the street.

Some of us, once upon a tyme, rode motorcycles that had no turn signals

Sounds good. I`ll arrange for my next door neighbors to tag along too, y`know...the RN and Paramedic. ;) They`ll be close by in the Stinger.

Indy Car and F1 racer, amongst many other things. He displayed the courage and resilience humans are capable of. Rest in Peace Mr. Zanardi.

If you have not, check out chaseontwowheels "First Ride" YouTube review of the `24 AT. He tests a ton of bikes, I like his style, the AT impressed him.

You need about a two foot spring puller and someone to hold the bike,... just don`t slip.

Beauty. Your bike is a centerstand away from pretty much perfect. Get some bags or bungee cords and toss that fuuugly box, your bike is too good looking for that hairy wart. :p

The `97 North Hollywood Shootout was a severe wake up for cops everywhere, no question.
