Embarrassing Harley Dude.
You aren't gonna believe this!!!
I have an FLHT and a Gold Wing. Just returned from a trip up to Yellowstone and Jackson Hole with a bunch of my Wing friends. So, we're making a pit stop at the marina on Jackson lake...right in the shadow of the Tetons (beautiful), and this guy rolls up with his nice pale blue RK Classic on a side-less trailer behind his pick up. He stops the whole rig down by the water, gets out, goes around back and gets up on the bike when it is still on the trailer. His SO then gets out of the cab with a camera, and proceeds to take a couple of pictures of him, on the bike, with the lake and mountains in the background. Then they both return to the cab and take off.
I've been riding for 47 years, and I have never seen such reprehensible biker behavior. Can you imagine the raft of crap my GW friends were giving me about HD riders. Actually, it was all in good fun, but I have to say that I was speechless. I think all I came out with was: "That is really WRONG!"
I just HAD to tell this forum about this. Hope that you never see it.

Was he wearing full fingered gloves or fingerless? Did he have a windshield? I wonder how many HD shirts he owns. "Here's Dad on his bike...on the trailer." Actually, I can see a few reasons why he didn't take it off the trailer, such as an unplanned stop in a time crunch; but it still deserves a little ball busting.
