You don't ever hear of of Hardly Ableson owners getting stopped for excessive noise.....what's that all about then, they run open pipes all the time, commit crimes against good taste everytime they are on the road, admittedly they couldn't go fast enough to get a ticket and the only way to get your knee down on one is to fall off, I guess the cop's would feel embarrassed noise testing a two wheeled armchair. Having thought about I didn't know there was a noise limit, supposed to be discretionary otherwise it would be part of the M.O.T, so poking a decibel meter at you is just for intimidation, run the B*$TARD over I say....:twak::twak::twak:

And Whilst I'm on the subject.



You see them everywhere, and you know the kind of rider that is usually aboard one. Leather chaps, leather jacket, combat boots, the very epitome of a bad ass biker.

But, that's just a wishful image. All that stuff came out of a corporate catalogue... One Harley rider looks like another, pretty much, yet they all claim that they are 'individuals'. Seeing a group of Harley's go past is like watching a cut scene from the "The Stepford Wives". They're all identical, they look alike, and they all ride the same thing; junk.

Very few Harleys are truly fast or powerful. Most are just loud rattletraps, over priced dealer wannabes or pieced together hope it works tomorrow wonders. They are paper tigers, all show and no go. You can get a hundred pounds of chrome on one of those things straight from the factory. Matching leather everything, even down to the little official HD logo which is oh so important to this flock behaviour mindset. Studded, braided, polished, painted, chromed, but ... it's all flash. It's all custom parts and paint, all jury rigged and low tech. In anything else but a Harley, the extremes that most Harley owners go to would be considered tacky and tasteless, and probably laughable.

The roar of a Harley is really just the growling of a sheep in wolf's clothing, and the bleating of the image driven lemmings that ride them.

Harley's fastest motorcycle, the Sportster, isn't anywhere near deserving of its name. There is no "sport" to the Sportster, and with a 883cc engine pushing out a meager forty seven horsepower, you have all the makings for a Black Angus set in motion by a mouse fart.

Feckin' `ell Rob, your on one today mate!
Who is this "Barnaby wild" that Hardly Dangerous owners sing about then?
What..?...it's Born to be wild is it?...oops, sorree!
I had a Harley Roadster in the eighties, drag bars, mag wheels...blown head gasket, exploding rear shock, ignition coil overheating...and that was just the good bits, i took it back to Steve Rhodes in Bradford where i got it from and swapped it for a trick Z1R, much better!

Hows it hangin' Rob?
