you should claim royalties from the show. Those fairings give me an itch though, dunno why but probably because I feel they spoil the lines of the bike. Seeing all those identikit bikes on the dyna forum makes me see red in a big way because I am old skool and these guys make comments like "sick front end dude" yet its the same as the last one. For what its worth a local gang member died in an accident due to high bars like they have on that thread, smacked his chest on the bars and tore open his aorta. If he'd had apes he would likely still be alive, if a bit battered.

I made 1:24. But then I was a little slow to catch on that it was NEVER gonna get any better.

There are just some things from the good old days that should stay there.
