    The worst motorcycle I ever owned. 1996 Harley Davidson Road King.

    It was my stepfather's, when he passed away it was given to me.
    After replacing the battery and fixing the fuel lines I got it running.
    I rode it around town for a month or two. It was so heavy and under powered it had trouble passing trucks on the highway!
    When my friend said she didn't like it and the crash bars were digging into her leg. That's all I needed to hear, I put it up for sale.
    My life as a "biker" was over... I was back to being a regular motorcyclists. 20190607_194143.jpg
    My Motorcycles:
    22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
    22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)

    81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
    79 1000e (all original)
    82 850g (all original)
    80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

      Take your pick:
      The Mullet, the knock-off Members' Only jacket, the acid washed jeans, the 3-wheeler with no rear suspension, the wheelie without a helmet, or the way my mom cut and framed this pic into a scrap-book. (Ignore the Scout, not part of this discussion). I was 14, it was 1985, and I had it all. -

                The apparition hovering above Steve’s bike looks a lot like a Double Crested Cardinal?

                  Really? I don't see it...?

                  Just kidding. There is no bad picture with the CBX.

                    That Cardinal kept trying to fly off with it but that Honda is too tubby.

                        THis morning, part of the Worst Time Of The Year for Mo'cykl rider here in Michigan



                        Too cold and sloppy for mocykle ridin.
                        But yet just warm enough for snow to be wett and heavy. THis is all the further the snowthrower got before the discharge chutte clogged up like a snowcone machine.
                        Reverted to manual labor and shovel technology.

                        But speaking of mo'cykle ridinn: not any salt on roads - yet. So if do get a day with roads dry . . . . . .
                        ah, next week suppose to be single digit temps << h e a v y s i g h >> so that will NOT be when I try to get at least one ride in January.
