    I'd think you would have to have a *very* serious dependency to want
    one of those.

    Well, the dollar's worth three-tenths of **** all, so not a lot, as I
    predicted.
    It'll vibrate like buggery. His and hers orthopedic saddles...
    "bitch" is the word you're looking for.

    loads - take another look.
    It's a snowmobile with wheels.

    'cept I thought custom/outlaw slang for a bike was 'scooter' (often
    abbreviated to scoot).

    I though the phrase scoot or "scoot jockey" was Australian. Mainly
    because I've only ever heard it in a, shall we say, Australian context.

    heh. "Nomad trash"

    I have some memory of leafing thru copies of Easy Rider in the late
    70s and early 80s (I never bought it, honest - must have belonged to a
    friend), where the term was in use

    HST used the term widely in Hells Angels.

    It's a scooter. What did you expect?

    Difficult to tell with just the side-view, but as there's no
    cross-bracing on either of them, I'd expect the thing to feel like a
    thing with a hinge in the middle, so Vetter's claim that it handles
    just as well as the doner Harley is completely and absolutely, err,
    legitimate, now I come to think about it :-}

  15. I don't usually do smart-arse spelling come-backs, but this is so
    unconsciously perfect, isn't it. Yes, the best thing to do with a Harley is
    to ram a spike through it, hang it on a hook and take knives to it.
    Furthermore, Harleys are mostly bought when drunk or you're otherwise not
    fully responsible for your actions. A kebab for the ke-Born Again Biker.

    I'd probably pick up on the handling improvements first, and the style
    improvements later
