I think they're also built a lot better than they were, so reliability isn't as big a deal as, say, during the AMF years.<br /><br />Nothing really wrong with the hardware at all by me. It is ONLY the whack jobs, LARPs, possiers, who think they're somebody they're not just because they put on leather pants and pretend. I put them in the same category as the dorks who buy something like a BMW or Mercedes because they think they'll be cool if they have a cool car, as if it's the car that makes them cool, not the other way around.<br /><br />Different roles, but the same underlying sicko neediness and pretentiousness.

That sound carries for well over a mile. And in my locale, I'd bet money it's the brothas on their tacky stretched-out jobs. Dorks apparently can't keep from doing wheelies unintentionally, probably too high to manage much besides straight lines.<br /><br />I keep hoping to hear the idiots crash and explode.

I have encountered decent people on Harleys (my brother and his friends), and jerks on rice-burners.<br /><br />There was an incident I experienced last summer where three guys on crotch rockets were racing up the main street running through town. This wasn't a problem for me, except they were doing it by slowing way down and blocking all three lanes of traffic (each bike in its own lane) to put some distance between themselves and the traffice ahead, then blasting off and racing down the street for a couple hundred feet, before slowing down and doing it all over again. Wouldn't allow any other vehicles past them, they just held the whole flow of traffic hostage to their whims. I find that just as annoying as the revvers.<br /><br />Assholes are assholes, no matter what they ride.WaterBoynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8949323.post-762154947275959462010-03-08T13:11:23.000-05:002010-03-08T13:11:23.000-05:00Makes you wonder if that South Park episode has sp...Makes you wonder if that South Park episode has sparked any deep soul-searching in the Hardley Poseurs.
