Pilots with Harleys

[NW Flyer]

I rode mine to work today!

Which, come to think of it, may not have been too smart... Wet roads covered in sand from last weeks snowstorm, forecast high around 40 degrees and talking about rain. What the hell was I thinking?

If you can't drag your knee (or jump a triple), it ain't worth riding. I don't ride on the street, it's too dangerous. I don't understand all the street dude's arguing about who's better, based on what kind of bike they BOUGHT. Put it on a track and see who's better based on LAP TIMES (which you EARN, not BUY).

I agree - especially about jumping the triple. I think everyone who wants to ride a bike on the street should learn on the dirt. You get really good at reading surfaces.

I saw a T-shirt one time that showed a bi-plane, with oil leaking and a Harley emblem on it, with the caption " if Harley made airplanes would you fly one?"

Seriously, enjoy it and be safe.

BMW 1200GS here. I'm not a big Harley fan, but I appreciate all bikes. I'm a ATGATT type of guy, but I would lose the dew rag and buy a good full face helmet.

One benefit I realized when I traded my HD for a Buell, now I can wear a full face and not look funny!

Ok, so I still look funny, but not because of the helmet...

Same guys that leave the APU running all the time.

Just kidding!
