We have a special public funded branch of the government that determines such things

Maybe, but they often start justifying it right in the same sentence.

With that said, just because he says he owns and rides a bike, doesn't mean he actually does own (or actually ride) a bike.

This guy has just been too evasive in talking about his own riding experience. Once pressed, he did say he owned a Harley. But that proves nothing.

And with that said, I wouldn't necessarily be ashamed to say I owned a Street, either. My local dealership's manager was trying to talk my wife into a Street 750 as a second bike (as a general runaround bike-she already has an Iron). She didn't ride it, but he zipped around on the parking lot a bit on it. It looked like a kick in the ***. Nimble and pretty darned snappy. And he's a big guy.

Was trying hard to find a picture of a honda passport with the Harley emblem on the tank. That would be Mikey's style

We have several special public funded branches of the government that determine absolutely nothing. At least nothing of any value whatsoever.

Beat that.

Well damn boys.......this was fun. But I have to actually hop on the bike and go for a 4 day ride.

I know I can count on some of you to carry the anti-troll torch from here. I truly hope you can stretch it out to 100 pages before it gets shut down.

Have a great weekend!

BUT, was he counter-steering, leaning, or maintaining steering torque.


Ya can't ride without being technical.
