If U read a few days in her U'd see hundreds of new owner saying they just got there first HD, rode X bikes for years, most are Crotch Rockets,,

Then they say and I quote : I don't know why i waited so long to buy one"
So one day and it may be sooner than U think,,,, U'll own one.... Then U may wish U still had UNK's jacket...

A jacket doesn't take up much room in a closet. So even if you don't wear it right now, you may in the future. If my family gave me a jacket like this, especially one that an uncle owned. I would never get rid of it. It's not costing you anything to hang it in that closet with all the memories.

I never thought I'd have a Harley and here I am and loving it. Keep the jacket. When you eventually by a Harley you'll already have a cool jacket and with sentimental value to boot.

I can't imagine why you would even entertain the thought of selling it...
But I guess I'm an old soul....


I guess that's one of the things wrong with America these days
