              So that now there is one straight-four in this world their V-twins are faster than..

              Makes me feel about the same way when members here start chopping on their XS11. But.. it's theres to do with as they wish.

              It'd be pretty funny if a Ricer group got a building by that one and hung up a Harley like that.

                I have to admit it annoyed me when I first saw it. Thought about dropping it and then setting a shrine around it in the middle of their lot, lol.

                    Man some people "really live in a small world" (meaning the guys with this club) I thought I was isolated living in the country with cows at the end of my street. So there club is just based on v-twins & the idea of obviousily knocking down other bikes via the sign. So then I guess all the conversations in the club be super sterotyped ideas & hate mongering toward other riders - & i guess everyone would be sporting a "goatie" & lots of leather & chains. Sorry about the rant - I just thought the world was slowy becoming a "bigger" place. I guess I'm wrong, too bad. To me the display is a good laugh & the "Kids" just don't know better & I guess that's how you gotta look at it. Boy that was pretty heavy - Dan

                      Well, I do know that some clubs have stipulations about what bike you can ride, and how big it has to be. I have heard specifics like, the requirement that it MUST be a Harley, and it MUST but over 900cc. Kinda sad if you ask me, but then, I don't join clubs like that.

                        Hi 'bottle,
                        well, today the photo shows up.
                        What I don't understand is, why would a club for inflatable boat owners hang a bike outside their place?

                              Yeah, the clubs I'm looking at has only two rules, you must ride a bike of at least 500 cc's and no drama. It's all about the ride, and they are inclusive, even though most of the members ride HD's, they seemed quite excited about finding another possible member.
