Default Next Fad?

OK, so the chopper thing is pretty much over. And the bobber thing is slowing down, and the bagger thing is getting kinda stale. So what's the next "big thing" with motorcycles?

Not that I really care as I ride what I like, but curious what the good people here think will be the next hot fashion du jour for Harley riders in the know?

Air cooled going to water cooled. EFI. Electronic Throttles. Other than that I think there is a good mix of bikes on the road. I dont think no one bike will stick out for a while. The Bike craze is dying down.

However I do see folks looking into those and riding alot of scooters to get through the fuel crisis.

I still would be interested in that Nuclear Powered Bike.... I know a good place to put the spent fuel rods to cool off...

After all the bobbers get tore down for parts they'll be reborn as Boobers. Actually I'll bet this has already been done....Dang!

All you need is the light post on a "good" corner to lean on. They look just like a biker but no fuss and muss of actually owning a bike.

Maybe someone would come up with the new idea of practicing some singing and even a few dance routines. We could practice out there every night when the street light came on.

I think I am gonna move now to lock down the brass knuckle and switchblade futures markets...Zippo lighters...yeah, those too.

At premium gas at over 4 bucks a gallon, this is a fad that is ready.

LMAO!!!!

There have always been and will always be poser wannabes. The most telling thing is that when you see these guys standing around there isn't a bike parked by the curb near the street light they're leaning on. Oh, yeah, the singing thing? It's called Doo Wop, but like all other things it's bound to come around again.
