Harleys are so unreliable that they must only be ridden for 30 minutes at a time and need to be cooled off for a period of 2 hours after that. Harleys must also not exceed 75mph for more than 2 minutes and 49 seconds at a time or the engine will suffer a catastrophic melt down. Harleys must not ever come into contact with more than 4 ounces of water at one time or a chemical reaction from the paint and metals used will cause the motorcycle to melt down to a heap of scrap metal.

I think those dumb asnwers cover the dumb questions I've seen this week.

BUT to help alleviate your 'fear', the one in the sig pic, is 44 this year, seen and sat in MANY a rain drop, STILL tickin'. So grab a rag when it FINALLY stops, wipe it down, wax it, then RIDE THE CHIT OUTTA IT, SON !!!!!!!

Oh yea, CONGRATS on the 'new' shack.


Holly cow, GUMP... I was just thinn-in bout Ya last week.
Haven't seen Ya post in a long time,
Hope life is treating U good these days.

Opps not to steal the thread.

Thinks the ole yard blower works pretty good to blow off most water then clean and wax as others say, Wouldn't want to leave mine out all winter, so I'd be looking for a dry home somewhere.

Bring your bike indoors- the Pan is in my living room.

I ride the wide glide every day so it's getting wet, iced up, and snowed on.

It's a motorcycle.

Hey OCT1949, I guess you didn't catch the part about this thread being almost 3 years old, the Gump post was from May 2009.
