We have that problem here, we call them R.U.B.'s (Rich Urban Bikers) and they have already planned their socialist movement, they elected NOBAMA!

What, fat chicks? Only one time I wash I had one and that was during a long ride and I wish I had a fat chick on the back to use as a back rest...

As for a scooter?

I had a black 50cc Yamaha Zuma for eight years, Until October when I went to a 1450cc Electroglide.
What was I thinking! I wanted the Glide all along, but the Ex type bought her daughter a scooter, so we thought we would ride along with her on occasion.
As krazy as it sounds, the two of us could be on the Zuma, and it would still out accelerate and out run the Yamaha Spirit with an eighty pound teen on it.
If you rejetted the carb, and put an expansion chamber on it, It would almost do Sixty. I didn't go that route.

Talked to a young guy (35ish) and his wife yesterday while looking at his three wheeler, the kind with the two wheels upfront. Auto transmission, reverse, anti-lock brakes controlled with one pedal and a muffler as big around as a large can of tomato juice. Unusual trike, not my style.

Interesting thing was, the guy said he never ever rode a motorcycle.

Nice guy, but a definite yuppie!

I guess they are still better then cages on the road. I really don't mind pulling up beside one at a red light on my Train, there was one guy that wanted to drag race, I just laughed and let him go.
