Hey all! I made this Video from pictures I shot all around japan while I was riding my Harley. Thought I would share. This link goes to you tube. Hope you like em!
NIce presentation. I've lived in Japan for the past four years and I hope to be doing the same sometime in the future. Anyway, nice bike and nice pics!
Thanks Whitebread. That was really nice. I was born and raised there as my Mom is Japanese. My Uncle (the Japanese one) always used to take me around Shibuya on his Harley when I was a kid. He loved American things because he was captured by Americans during WWII when he was in the Japanese Navy at age 13, and he said that they treated him much much better than his own superiors did. Gave him chocolate, candy, etc. Taught him a bunch of swear words too. Nothing funnier than a Japanese dude riding a Harley around Tokyo swearing at other drivers in broken English.
Hey White Bread, do you catch crap from the locals for riding an import bike? [sm=icon_rofl.gif]
Now that's funny, I don't care who you are!!! [sm=laughingsmilie.gif]
Me and a buddy was sittin' in a bar in Panama (the country) once and the bartender was going through all his beers (we were trying them all) and then he said he had some import beer, and I asked "Oh yeah, what kind of import you got?". He said "Bud Light". It was funny at the time. We didn't fry 4,000 miles to drink Bud Light.
