Honda's got some new products that'll kill your boredom. Starting in 2011, when you purchase any Honda Motorcycle with the quick change release you get one free attachment. You can choose the lawnmower attachment, the trench digger attachment or the very popular leaf blower attachment.

Now you can perform any of the previously boring tasks with your new Honda motorcycle. Have fun whiile gettin' the work done!!

Honda guys would never run into that problem. I've never seen valet parking at a Dairy Queen!

Correcto mundo!

We had been there before but usually a friday night and always in the winter.

Live and learn, but of course, I still contend it was rude to block me in and will plead guilty to Tequilla John's accusation although out of ignorance, not malice......

The place was big enough and as I said very crowded so the valet guy couldn't locate the owner. Believe me it was the first time I ever considered doing damage to another persons property.

The valet asked me if I would move the bike, which was btw was a beautiful maroon, chromed out Road King, naturally I said no and he moved it.

Unbelievable!!!!
Damn dude,i've got buds that would have put that bike in the trailer for you if you no wat i mean.

What the hell kind of scooter bar has valet parking ? What the hell kind of bars are you hanging out in?
You need a bar with a " Better class of loser".
