A 25-mile commute through Russian traffic and a powerful two-wheeled samurai sword, and you get a video showing the "quick" way to work. Sometimes this two-wheeler even becomes a one-wheeler as rare empty stretches of road disappear when the nose goes skyward. Hang On !!

That guy is going to be decorating the road with his brains sooner than later if he drives like that everyday.
The other similarity between ATL and AUS is the on-going battle as to which is the allergy capital of America?
Somewhere in Kenya, a village is still missing its idiot.
Now that you mention it, I remember that being the case...fortunately, I'm not an allergy sufferer so it never really bothered me, but I certainly remember most of my friends had a horrible time with it. It was mostly indoors and a/c for me when the temps went north. Atlanta had 2 tempertures...hot and unbearable. It's not called Hotlanta for nothing...although that would also descibe a great majority of the fairer sex...that place had the most beautiful women of any place I've ever been...simply stunning!
Yes, I remember the 750. It was indeed a good-sized bike. I like old bikes too and if I had the money and could find one I would buy an old pan or knuck and make another chopper. I think that there is nothing much prettier than a pan or knucklehead Harley engine in a twin downtube, rigid frame (or soft tail) with a beautiful custom paint job. Those are pics I found of a 1947 knuck which has been highly customized. And a nice panhead on youtube:
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic. The only difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has it's limits. Albert Einstein
Is that sweet, or what? Thanks.

That insane Russian's made this into a most pleasurable thread to read. Thanks guy.

The pans and knuckles are true classics and people ALWAYS gravitate to them when one shows up...and the stories go on for hours. The one in the picture...now THAT'S a classic. Mine wasn't quite that raked out but that sure brings back memories. It's a blast seeing this vintage machines at these gatherings...and "rat bikes"...but THAT'S a whole nother topic.
He's rolling north on 75/85. I have driven through Atlanta a lot (never on a bike though).

Your guess would be correct. I stopped the video for the interchange signs and it clearly showed he was going north on 75/85.

Remember this...this was the bike Micheal Parks rode in the TV series, "Then Came Bronson"...they had it on display in Daytona the year I has there...
Thanks. When a pan cranks in one kick, yeah, that's sweet! The '65 I had was a pan (first year they came out actually) and it was a rare thing when it cranked on the first kick when it was cold.

Mine was pretty close to that in the front end. A very long bike and not really a good ride in the mountains but fun on a good stretch of road. But hit a bump with it at any speed and you could just about count on going airborne. No suspension to speak of in those springs on the springer. But it LOOKED good and when I was the age I was then, that was what counted, y'know?

Thanks Lod...great video...and those BMWs are fabulous road bikes. Gold Wings and Beemers are what most serious road runners ride...
awesome, man !

Yeah, I remember that bike. A Sportster and it always sounded good.

THAT statement I understand. I never really knew girls liked bikes until I got one...what a concept!
It only took 130 posts for me to get with the program. Glad that you enjoyed our state from a bike. (Secede now!)

Remember when the Honda came out with the 750 four cylinder...that was considered a HUGE bike. I have a friend that rides an old 47 Indian. Those old bikes are GREAT...I don't know if you do any of the rallies, but you get to see some really beautiful vintage bikes. Anything on 2 wheels is great. Hey, who knows, I may end up with a Gold Wing also...my wife wants something more "comfortable",... go figure! :?)

North on the 75-85 interchange...Spring street is south of Howell Mill so he must be rolling north...that's my guess.

Twice the bike at half the price. BTW, that Honda is American made unlike Harley's.
How many miles per pound of rice do you get on that thing?

He doesn't understand that our VTX is purely American made. Harley's are not. As my husband says, twice the bike at half the price.
oh no...now you've done it!!! Troubles brewing...I can see it from here...LOL

Ok we can just agree to disagree on that one. Keywords and their meanings: "Fine": This is the word we use at the end of any argument that we feel we are right about but need to shut you up. NEVER use fine to describe how woman looks. This will cause you to have one of those arguments. "Five minutes": This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the trash, so it's an even trade. "Nothing": This means something and you should be on your toes. "Nothing" is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. "Nothing" usually signifies an argument that will last "Five Minutes" and end with the word "Fine". "Go Ahead" (with raised eyebrows): This is a dare. One that will result in a woman getting upset over "Nothing" and will end with the word "Fine". "Go Ahead" (normal eyebrows): This means "I give up" or "do what you want because I don't care". You will get a raised eyebrow "Go ahead" in just a few minutes, followed by "Nothing" and "Fine" and she will talk to you in about "Five Minutes" when she cools off. "Loud Sigh" : This is not actually a word, but is still often a verbal statement very misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing". "Soft Sighs": Again, not a word, but a verbal statement. "Soft Sighs" are one of the few things that some men actually understand. She is content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe and she will stay content. "Oh": This word followed by any statement is trouble. Example; "Oh, let me get that". Or, "Oh, I talked to him about what you were doing last night." If she says "Oh" before a statement, RUN, do not walk, to the nearest exit. She will tell you that she is "Fine" when she is done tossing your clothes out the window, but do not expect her to talk to you for at least 2 days. "Oh" as the lead to a sentence usually signifies that you are caught in a lie. Do not try to lie more to get out of it, or you will get raised eyebrows "Go ahead" followed by acts so unspeakable that we can't bring ourselves to write about them. "That's Okay": This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can say to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before paying you retributions for what ever it is that you have done. "That's Okay" is often used with the word "Fine" and used in conjunction with a raised eyebrow "Go ahead". At some point in the near future when she has plotted and planned, you are going to be in some mighty big trouble. "Please Do": This is not a statement, it is an offer. A woman is giving you the chance to come up with whatever excuse or reason you have for doing whatever it is that you have done. You have a fair chance to tell the truth, so be careful and you shouldn't get a "That's Okay". "Thanks": A woman is thanking you. Do not faint; just say you're welcome. "Thanks a lot": This is much different from "Thanks". A woman will say, "Thanks a lot" when she is really ticked off at you. It signifies that you have hurt her in some callous way, and will be followed by the "Loud Sigh". Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the "Loud Sigh", as she will only tell you "Nothing". I hope this clears up any misunderstandings...

Carburetor? They phased those out in 06. I know that because I bought an 06 because I wanted one. They're less picky on fuel. That said, who cares if the bike has some foreign parts. I'm sure the Honda does to. The bottom line: HD is an American legend, they sound different, they ride different, they're built different, they last longer,they're the best, and the choice of the best. The rice grinder crowd is always making excuses why they bough some piece of jap crap. You saved some money? Good, spend it on leathers and tattoos so you can look like a Hog rider but remember: We're all laughing at you.

my life would have been a lot less complicated with that list 20 years ago...I've got the "fine" thing figured out, and it was figured out early. When my future wife asked me one night how she looked on the way out the door, I replied "fine". I "came to" about 2 hours latter...with a crystal clear understanding that "fine", when describing how your significant other looks, would resurrect the spawn of Satan!
