Yeah I do. But don't generally sit in it and put down another man's ride.

I think people are over-reacting to the OP. It sounds as if it's a safety issue. Hard braking with poor welds on bars is a recipe for disaster.

Observing another man's ride from you car, doesn't put one in a good position to make valid judgement calls! Safe or not (in your oppinion) is that a problem for you?

So if he was on his bike...could he then make a valid judgement call?

Gimme a break. I can't imagine anyone defending rusty, poorly welded bars. Then again...NONE of us were there to actually see it other than the OP.

People need to get off their high horse.

I have more respect for a "redneck" doing his own thing then a country club yahoo spending 40k for a premade bike so he can look cool to his friends. Don't make fun of something just because you don't understand it. Just plain ignorant...

Man I just can't believe some of you guys. Do you all sit and wait for someone to start a thread just so you can jump into his ****?

Give me a break, the OP was just sharing something funny that he had seen.... lighten up!!!

And if you are offended by the 'redneck' inference, go kick Jeff Foxworhty's ***....Jeez
