I don't believe I was ever "bashing lowered bikes"...If you read every one of my posts in this thread, I don't see how you could come to this conclusion. But this is a forum and every one gets to form an opinion. I believe it is more accurate that I was posting a lighthearted poke on a divisive subject, which has proved true imho. (post 34,35, & 42) I can see how someone with little or no sense of humor would go there however. Can we just lighten it up a little people??? No need to frown all the time.

It’s not a frown, more of a scowl.

You're right.....And if anybody is reading this, and doesn't like it, you are likely one of them. Take a 30 second look in the mirror, or a selfie and look real hard. Many are too Narcissistic to think it could be them. Well guess what? It's likely you too...If it's hard for you to smile, your face muscles are too used to that scowl.
Shut off the 10Pm news, and watch reruns of The Andy Griffith show, or something. News today just polarizes and makes people angry. Life's too short if you think about it. So crack a smile no matter how much it hurts. No one really wants to be around people like you. It is such a drain being around people like that, Nowadays. I try to avoid them if I can in any way. Sorry, but that's the truth.
An Old timer once taught a very young me to "Imagine standing next to yourself watching you, when you react to something, or say (or type) something to someone" It was an eye opener to say the least.

Deep down you know it's true....

Rode with a guy a few years ago. Dyna Convertible he had. Laced wheels. Had a "rotund" passenger on the back. Went over some "rolling" bumps. Spokes on the rear wheel started snapping. Hit another bump a "TACO'd" the rear wheel. Sure glad they were both wearing good quality gear. So, instead of a trip to the county morgue, they were both standing over their Dyna with the destroyed rear wheel, kicking it.
