I started out on a Honda 350 cb with no foot pegs...at all. Rode with my feet on the motor, for a while. then on to a worn out(big time) 72' sportster. And the rest is history.
Next bike was a 49' Pan....and 12 Harley's afterward.... What a great ride its been.
7 motorcycle accidents, 21 years in motorcycle rights movement, built 4 bikes from the ground up...and the list goes on........ Totally love this lifestyle.

Wow, sounds like you have been living the life!

I,personally,don't care what anybody rides as long as they ride.It is my opinion that if you spend big bucks on a bike that it should be rideable,which is not always the case with some of the "works of art" being passed off as bikes.

You get poseurs in every walk of life. The dude hanging out in front of the bar with his big dollar custom, trying to look cool, and dreaming about actually riding, is no different than the guy at the pistol range with his $2,000 customized 1911 who can't hit paper at 15'. As long as they don't get in my way while riding or shooting, no problems.

First time wrighting in. I love all kinds of bikes. Right now I'm riding a Dyna Lowrider.
Traded in a Heritage softtail. The Dyna fits my riding still better. I ride 20 miles to work and some days its 20 degs out. I pass one rider on a dual sport. I've alot of respect for
any one who can leave the city on one. As for choppers to each his own I've friends with
home built and factory built. I get ideas from both and enjoy looking at them. It's like
restoring cars or hotrodding them I enjoy seeing what other people can do.
