Then you would be in love with the Dickster. I am the KING of cranky, as most HDFers will attest!

Heck, I started riding, Allstate Compacts in the Mid-60's, also had a Vespa, moved up to a Honda Super90, then in the late 60's purchased a 60 panhead cop bike,then in 70 everything went into a blank, drugs, booze, viet war, re-appeared bought a 1972 harley dirt bike, kept it for a few years, went with BMW AMF bought Harley, they were junk.
Went without riding till mid 90's due to no money from a divorce, Had to have that EVO Harley Softail!
I was a Fathers worst nitemare! when I was a kid, Dad's hated me.
My greatest love was forbidden to see me! Man I still have feelings for her!
All because of the motorcycle culture.
I've always loved the motorcycle culture, allways will!
I think today, I will blame Marlin Brando, and his movies, otherwise I think the girls I saw back then, would think I was just the nice boy next door!
Now I'm the guy who smiles everyday
, when I ride with the wind blowing through my bald *** head!

Yea; me too,man. Chick's fathers & mothers hated me with a passion--I was the guy with the long hair & the bike & the guitar--and it seemed the more the parents hated me, the more the chicks dug me! Used to hafta sneak around, or in a couple cases have one of my "straight" friends pick up the babe, then drop her off a couple blocks away where I was waiting to corrupt her morals. Actually felt like I was getting back at the parents with every single pelvic thrust! I actually found the first real love of my life on Facebook last year;sent her a friend request & she responded back that she would love to friend me, but her husband wouldn't allow it. Can you believe THAT ****? I guess she told him I was the guy who popped herLOL!

Had one of my High School GFs recently find me on Facebook. Never doinked her back in the day, but got together with her a few years later after she got engaged & threw the beef at her in the backseat of my '70 AMC Hornet. Didn't mind doing it 'cause I knew her fiance' & he was a douchebag, & I hope he liked how I tasted! To this day one of the best boinks I ever had.

You really where different if you road a bike on the road back in the 60's you had to know how to tinker with the ignition and carburetors.

Biggest difrence between Bikers of the 70's and these "Bikers" we got now..

1) better personal hygiene
2) literacy rate much improved and now approaching 75%
3) better dentistry, many bikers now have all their teeth
