    This reminds me of an old add by Posies ( http://www.posiesrodsandcustoms.com ).
    They used to have a t-shirt with a dude leaning on a big ol' chainsaw in front of a car with the roof cut off.
    the caption went something like this: "Anybody can restore an antique, it takes a real man to cut one up".

    you just have to feel sorry for poor Dyna... his screams of protest were heart-rending, as 6 of us, all heavily armed, dragged him away from home, and force fed him beer

    Drinking with Rory is a chore that just has to be every now and then like confession.

    The hardest thig about drinking with him is keeping up, but with the drink and his rare sense of humour, that is just like murphy's porter, an acquired taste......:-))

    With the little honda we are now decicing what direction it is to go in.
    They can be dropped right down and maybe we could put a sprung seat, one thing for sure is the knuckles in the rear of the frame got to go, they mess up the whole rear end.

    Looking at those photos again I have to say it is great seeing an old school bike shop and the even older school biker...

    Well old school it may be but it is correct school

    I agree though about the old biker, sometimes I look at myself in fotos and think "who is that old yet dashingly handsome man?"...........nobody ever answer me though, even the voices have stopped talking to me

    I love the ape hangers. They are so comfortable. People that hate them, just don't know how comfortable they are.

    I want to get a mini apes because my bike has some crappy ram horns and so uncomfortable to ride at the molment. I can't ride it for long as it sits but at least I get to ride even if it is just across town and back. Then I want a back rest that is part of my problem as well.
