I've always been into evil looking stuff. Skulls being one of them. When I saw the skull collection it just fit my personality. I loved them. Long before the Willie G skull collection I was brought into a group of friends called "The brotherhood of the Skull". Any Texas folks may remember it from Stevens/Pruit/Greggo from 101.1 KLOL.
Not sure the question was really answered...alot of conjecture though. I dont know the story, but I read other places on this forum things like " I thought the skull collection was gay until I learned about the story behind it..."
If the "story" is that he drew it one day and it became a parts collection, that is pretty lame.
As a quick aside to the easterners ... chaps is pronounced "SHAPS" not chaps like chapstick or chaps my a$$. Now I'm going back to the tech forums where there is a chance for me to learn something worthwhile. You folks play nice here in the General chat, ya hear?
Main Entry: chaps
Pronunciation: \ˈshaps, ˈchaps\
Function: noun plural
Etymology: modification of Mexican Spanish chaparreras
Date: 1844
: leather leggings joined by a belt or lacing, often having flared outer flaps, and worn over the trousers (as by western ranch hands)
aren't all chaps azzless by definition? Wouldn't they be called pants if they were not azzless?
I was waiting for someone to actually say that. I always assumed the azzless chaps were worn around the house without pants or something...
Bought my Sporty used, it had two skulls on it - the gas cap which I was going to get rid of and the derby cover. I guess somebody thought I liked them so for my birthday I got every ***** G skull chrome piece in the catalog. They're just not that trick to me, but I might put them on (foot pegs, bolt covers, sissy bar, air cleaner and some things I don't even know what they're for) just because. Then again, they might look really good on e-Bay or to donate to some homeless biker charity for Christmas. Oh yeah, even got the matching leather jacket and gloves. (I admit I'm a poser so I can wear those right?)
And the hits just keep on coming. This crap of not being a real biker is sickening. The guy asked a simple question. If you don't know then don't come into the discussion and make comments about being a poser if you have them. I'll never understand people who hate Harley Jackets, shirts, boots, skull accessories, etc, etc. but insist on only riding a Harley motor cycle. You will give the MoCo 20k dollars for your bike, but not 25 for a shirt.
