Dan, I don't see my bike in the banner. Top left, correct? Thanx, Dave

Watched both sides from end to end. You are correct. Dan the pic doesn't seem to appear in the rotation.

Looks like Forum cache needed to be purged. Have a look now in the left side.

Agreed. You suck at picture taking. But, you more than make up for it with your eye for motorcycle style and stance. Love the look of your ride. How about a sharper focused image out in the yard under good light? I wanna closer look at that bruiser!

 

[dan filipi]

I'll wait for another pic.

 

[slabghost]

Sure wish that were clearer. Very nice angle.

Thanks Bro , I just put new mufflers on today, got sum choice bags going on next. Once I get em sorted I'll get my sweetie to take a decent pic.

Maybe I'm just old school but I don't think it's about style or stance, I just think it's about how and why you ride it. :moped:

No its tha National Cycle Classic Beaded Windshield . Ive always preferred tha beaded ones. I just dont like tha thoughts in case of a accident of tumbling around with a giant razorblade :BigGrin:

 

[slabghost]

Hmm. Guess I'm old enough to be old school. Ridden long enough to be past the "posing" adolescent nonsense. Logged enough miles to never have to explain why.

But, style and stance will always have meaning to me. I need to actually "like" what I'm riding. Passion for riding comes from more than just the "freedom of the wind". Connection to the machine has always been a fundamental aspect of "how and why".

But, that's just me.

 

[chilidawg]

Great, +1.

You and I may well be sharing the same philosophy here.

I don't give a flying f**k what anyone thinks of my ride.

I'm riding, are you?

 

[joedrum]

Very cool. Thanks, Dan. In the interest of being technically correct, the tag on my banner pic says it is an Interstate. It is a Standard.

This describes me well. I have been on street bikes for 39 years now. I'm not a poser either. I don't care to look like a "biker". I dress for comfort and safety. To each his own I suppose. And any motorcycle will put wind in my beard but I need that connection, too. I reckon that is why we wrench on these sweet old hunks of metal. When I weld a new part together, I weld a piece of me to the machine.
