By the way - can any one of you shiny bike guys tell me which decade this bike is from?

I'll give you a hint. I'm over 50 and it's older than me.

 

Now THAT is a REAL bikers pride and joy. Absolutely one of the best rats I've ever seen. It may look bad but I bet she purrs like a kitten. The stories that bike could tell if it could talk...

Looks like a Panhead... can't get a clear look at it tho.

 

That's an ugly piece of ****, period. Having a trash bike does not make this guy a Real biker. WTF is wrong with some of you?!

Edit:
As a side, those of you that keep bringing up this "Real biker" crap, AREN'T!

 

Rat bikes. You see them at all the rallys. They all look the same, trashed out bikes. Most sound like trash when they're started. After several kicks. Never seen the point. It's not just an ugly looking bike. It's loaded with everything the owner can tie, tape or glue on. No theme except it looks like crap. And no, I wouldn't want to ride with one. It might not be able to keep up or stop. Scary looking piece of trash. JMHO.

 

Guess I am a poser then. That thing looks like crap (being nice) and the owner is probably like those folks you see on TV about hoarders. If that was in my garage, I would strip it down, re-build it, paint it, and have a decent bike. To do that to a perfectly good piece of machinery is a shame. I take pride in the way my bike looks as it is a reflection of me. Rat bikes are one thing, this is something different.

 

that bike is a 30's knucklehead, and ill bet it runs better then most of the bikes on here, i would be proud to ride it..(but i might have to strip some of the junk off it first)

 

Just out of curiosity, what would you be willing to bet?

 

Yes, I too would be willing to take this bet. Whatcha got?

 

Yes huh!!!!!! Jus' ask 'em.

 

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder! What a real biker is can not be judged by a RUB! So STFU Betty!

(If you get that upset because some one has a different perception of what is attractive, or you want to dictate what is appealing to them, perhaps you would be happier not using public forums...)

BTW, we all enjoy some pride in our own ride and there will always be some one else who doesn't appreciate what we've done. If yer all trying to tell me that you need to impress everyone in order to feel proud, I'm just going to keep smilin...

As for the bet...
I'd laugh even harder than I am now, if we all found out that bike was staged by somebody like Jay Leno...
