From what I've seen on the street... they looked pretty close to the real thing to me...
From what I read here on the forums they fit the definition of a biker... They wrecked their bikes... dropped them... stuff like that. I've read here many times that if you ain't crashed a bike or dropped your bike you ain't ****. So... don't they fit the criteria?
They took their bike out for its long distance yearly run... Doesn't that qualify them as a biker?
Just askin'...

"The recession is over. Buy something."
Steve,
My stimulus check went toward my quarterly 1040E payment.
I'm contemplating, at my age, I will never see the end of this recession.
