high gas prices and gas savings is the only way I was able to pull off getting a my chopper.

people who ACTUALLY buy a harley for gas mileage shouldnt be riding a harley, they need a 50cc vespa sooter for $1000.

Let's risk our \\;\\\\\\;lives in order to save money on gas??? [sm=confused06.gif] \\;\\\\\\;Buy a motorcycle cuz you want to ride. \\;\\\\\\; Fuel efficiency is just a side benefit. \\;\\\\\\; That said, I do save $280 per month in fuel costs if I ride my Sportster to work versus my Chevy half ton crew. \\;\\\\\\; But I would not risk my life on 2 wheels to save gas. \\;\\\\\\; I ride for the passion of riding.

Men over here actually think it's cool to pretend to be terrified of their wives.
Most of my neighbors are making stupid amounts of money. Yesterday one actually tried to put something in his supermarket trolley\\\\\\\\\\\\\\; and his wife took it out and told him to put it back.
He did. \\;\\\\\\;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\; \\;\\\\\\;\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\; I swear to God. He was complaining to me about it afterwards. Lmfao \\;\\\\\\;\\\\\\\\\\\\\\; \\;\\\\\\; \\\\\\\\\\\\\\; dick-wad.
