Default Warning, profanity---my new shift linkage

Check it out, I'd seen this one other time before I bought it, and at that time I didn't have the dough to buy it. Three years later I found it again, and now it's going on the Street Glide. Sometimes you can "say it all" without saying a word!

Guess I offended you guys, sorry that wasn't my intention, but isn't riding all about freedom...to each his own...etc,etc?

Unless you're never going to park your bike somewhere that a family with kids will see it I would tend to think your new part is kind of over the line, but that's just my opinion. If I saw that on a bike I'd automatically think the owner was an a$$hole.

I guess I can understand that, but while you were thinking that, I'd be the one pulling over to give you a hand if you needed one.

And that's completely cool of you and would make me change my mind probably. But that piece alone without knowing you at all makes me form an opinion. Know what I mean?

Hey, to each his own, if you don't have a problem with it, then i don't either. Probably wouldn't put it on my bike, but thank goodness for freedom of expression
