This thread was good until it was highjacked, by cockfighting. I don't ride in groups because my good friends don't ride. The one time I went on a ride with a dealership, a rider fell down for no reason in the rain, his Road King bounced back up and took off at 40mph and richocheted off the median concrete barrier. If I hadn't extrapulated from my pool bank shots and realized I might be the side pocket, and accelerated out of the way I might have been taken out.
Also the thought of being in a group with half the people complaining I am going too fast, the other half saying too slow, half too close together, half too much space, go through the light, don't go through the light, etc.., makes me glad to ride solo.
I do envy people who have a small group of friends they enjoy riding together with. That would be ideal.

I apologize to you and any one else not involved with the animosity I feel towards zeus and his split personality.
I,m done with this pissing match and I bid you adieu.

#15 why people correct grammar on internet but would never correct someone while they were talking in person.

#16 why I eat something at all the stops just to see if its good.

#17 why I never gone to sturgis yet

#18 why some people wont go on rides because they cant afford it [but still buy smokes]

#19 how someone can love to ride, but has never been to a mc race of any kind just to watch [mx,flattrack,hillclimb,road, drag]

#20 how I can change something major on my bike but have to point it out to my wife after talking bout it for a month, buying it, opening packages in living room, then installing it. she still cant see the parts installed.

No apology needed, I think it's hilarious. As I said in an earlier post I think some who are so at odds in internet forums would enjoy having a cold one with one another. As for the pissing match, I think at this point you are both 3'9" from the urinal and a **** off is in order to determine a winner.

#21 why you can ride for one lane for miles and miles because of construction orange barrels and no work has been done in months. I actually think the state doesn't have a shed large enough to store them so they spread them along the road.

Cullinary inquisitiveness and Harleys go hand in hand.

#17 why I never gone to sturgis yet
'Yet' is the key word.

#18 why some people wont go on rides because they cant afford it [but still buy smokes]
Most rides do not accept food stamps? I am stumped.

#19 how someone can love to ride, but has never been to a mc race of any kind just to watch [mx,flattrack,hillclimb,road, drag]
Just like those who enjoy the internet but have never been to a computer manufacturing plant perhaps?

#20 how I can change something major on my bike but have to point it out to my wife after talking bout it for a month, buying it, opening packages in living room, then installing it. she still cant see the parts installed.
This is too easy. Buy bigger parts, parts of another color, get a different spouse, don't talk about it for a month and make it a surprise and lastly only open the packages in the garage.
