  Been riding since the 50s, still riding now. Aint as quick as I was, and now not it a hurry to die.

  Ive rode Triumphs since the 70s. One a new one in 2000. Made it look like a Dunston, with 600 miles on it I rode to SLC and back in February. Then I turned 50, and bought a Harley. Then I sold that Harley, and got a FJ1200. Could not stand the FXDX Dynasour.  A few years later I got a 2008 Sporty, great bike. When I traded it in on the Slim, they gave me the most they had ever given for a trade, and resold it for the most on an sporty sold there. 

  Took my first rides before Eisenhower  was President, even got a picture of me Liking Ike.

  First bike I ever rode was an Indian Papoose. The folks ran an Indian Vincent shop back then.

  Im here to go on rides next supper. gas might me $10 a gallon by then, but we have a still, so not worries that much. So if you follow me and smell fired chicken ahead of you, Its not the Colonel.

  looking for some thoughts and ideas to look at, breed of bike is not really my concern. 

  I ride stripped down, light machines. Spent the last 12 or 14 years on a Sporty. Only bike that handled the way I like. Well then Harley came out with the Slim. I was working for Honda Motorcycles at the time. One came in on trade. Its in my stable now. 

  The only things I added were a windshield, a better seat, loud pipes, and cruise control for $600.

  Its my last bike. Some day I may feel Im too old to ride, or Soccer mon or Diesel Dan will take me out.

  It is the best cruiser Ive ever rode.

  It took 3 million buck to the state form 3 helmet makers to steal our freedom. 

  That was 1986, I still have and use my 1986 helmet I was forced to buy. 

  Some how the nanny state think they are our mothers.
