I was simply agreeing with him, JohnnyMop.
Why are y'all always looking for an opportunity to instigate and agitate?


Grow up, asshole.

It's not name calling when it's true.

Because it is all Herring, his buddy Alex, and his buddy JustMe have.
Their goal is to drive out any posters whose politics ain't far right wing.

Now you got me trying to remember. Here are the motorcycles that I can
recall:

Honda 305 "Super Hawk"
Honda 350 - two .. one in Puerto Rico, one in MA.
Kawasaki 450
Harley Davidson Ultra Classic (2000 - white)
Harley Davidson Softails - two, one new in 2003, the other an older
version with the "evo" engine.
Harley Davidson Ultra Classic (2006 - maroon)

That's eight of them. Might be another ... oh, yeah there *was*.

I bought a custom built Harley that Cape Cod Harley Davidson built
especially for Sturgis but cancelled going.

Oh, ... one more ... a fully restored 1974 Norton 850 Commando.

That's 10.

So, how often do you "drive" your Ducati ?

Not as many here.
I have had a
250 Benelli dirt bike, the one that tried to kill me ;-)
350 RD Yamaha, Didn't keep it long, Maybe the most dangerous bike ever
350 Honda Sent it down the road pretty quickly too when I found the FX
72 Superglide (my favorite)
72 XLCH (fast but not as good a ride as a Superglide)
74 XLH (last Harley in Md)
71 FLH (the one I had down here)



My squirreliest bike was as a teen I got hold of a Moped Frame with a
Triumph Cub motor. And broken kick starter. Had to bump start. Got
away from me one bump start in front of the house. In front of MOM. Not
the best thing to do. I stepped off and let the bike crash without me. I
still have the California motorcycle DL endorsement. But at 75 years old
today, I think is not a good thing to ride.


The Yamaha 350s were crash magnets because they were so "cammy" and
had such a high center of gravity.
You crank it up and the front wheel is flying. I have seen plenty of
newbees stand them up and let them go when they landed on their ass.
My problem was I got to liking it and I was riding a unicycle much
more than a sane person should do.

Our most dangerous bike to ride (owned by the partnership) was a post
war Harley "45" chopper with the suicide clutch, hand janmmer and a
derby hub (no front brake). It had a kicked out springer and hard
tail. This was a thing of beauty sitting next to the curb. You just
couldn't ride it.
Think about it, you roll up to a light, You either have a foot on the
clutch or the brake. With both you fall over. It was a little dance
with kicking it out of gear in time to step on the brake. Good luck
getting started up a hill.
We parted it out and made more than we could get for the bike.

Yes, with your history of throwing yourself off roofs etc, I'd say you
should stay away from anything that requires balance and coordination.


Donnee, you'd think that after a while you'd learn just to keep your
immature, f'ing mouth shut. You
delight in throwing a bunch of rancor into any decent thread you come
across. Do you feel you're
really impressing the fat guy?


That is OK John. It is beyond is brain capacity.

Actually they only look far right to a guy who is over the horizon left.

You should know. You seem to like calling others names.

And the extended forks with no bracing, so the wheel could flop left or
right at a stop light.
