Too many dead brain cells to remember all of them, but here's one I do remember.

If the odd noise coming from within the fairing on your Road Glide sounds like a mouse,,, it might be. "Don't ask me how I know, and don't ask me how I discovered what it was.
Probably from the smell after it died.

when drinking don't get on your bike and try to pull away without starting it and pick your feet up. 30 yrs ago and still a topic that gets a roar of laughter........

When you take off riding in the morning to early, tired and hung over and you stop at the first station to pick up a cigar. Dont forget to put the kick stand down. Dont ask me how I know.
And when dismounting in the parking lot of a crowded beach while the bikini clad babes stare at that georgeous hunk of man meat with the cool Harley Sportster, you might want to remember to put the kickstand down as well. Don't ask me how I know.

Don't ask me how I know that a replacement gas cap for a 2006 Ultra is about $17.00 on a holiday.

When watching your buddy put his bike up for the first time on a J&S Jack ... and then watch him put it back down only to see the bike roll off and crash into the Gorilla Shelving Units .... try not to laugh at him for jacking his bike up from the low side and it auto-tip the wrong way when lowered...... don't ask me how I know

Still laff about it from time to time.

When backing into a parking slot at your friend's apartment complex and there is a steep downhill grade to the right ... be sure to lean hard enough left when backing in or the bike will fall down to the right.... don't ask me how I know
