This is the second back up story I read on these boards that the truck actually went over the bike.

Good for you for quick thinking and saving your life.

Stories like this will remind us of the dangers we face everyday as bikers. Thanks for sharing.

This land yacht. Jeez it was slow and top heavy...




My first bike (not this exact one) in 1964:





My first Harley was a '65 XLCH very much like this one in 1968:

The last bike I owned before I purchased my FXDB was this 2003 Electra Glide Classic. Wish I could have kept it and had both of them.
