    When I bought my Harley I was the 5th owner, it was 4 years old and had
    done less than 7,000 miles.

    I wouldn't be surprised if that BM's mileage was genuine. It's hard to
    build up the mileage with occasional Sundays.

    Some of them only get pushed into the backs of trucks so they can be
    carted to the mechanic.

    Maybe people like me and Simes had owned it.

    Meanwhile, I've got a Commando - 1974 and it has only 13,000 on it....

    eric the brave says...
    I think the idiot is referring to the jiggly numerals on the odometer.
    Lots of bike odometers do that without having been clocked.

    Doesn't like the colour (yellow) but thinks it's way more comfy than
    the GSX-R and the DR-Z and roomier than the Morini...
