    Sometimes we have to just put the mods aside and go take a nice spin...

    Edit: Please don't try this on your bike!

                  It wasn't cool in the least bit, it was assinine, you want to kill yourself, ride off a ravine, but that endangers everyone involved, not to mention all the young idiots viewing that wanting to make their own video to top his, reckless and irresponsible.
                  Sorry, this only gives an already tarnished outlook on riders an even bigger black eye. Sorry to be so vocal on this but, to put it in perspective, now put a passenger on the back....your kid. How cool is it now?!

                    Sorry guys, not a personal attack on anyone here, that just upset me(Mr obvious) There's a place for extreme sports, public highways isn't one of them. Apologize if anyone took it as a personal attack because of the post.

                          Hi Lon,
                          I only saw one girl on an H-D, the rest are on British, German or Italian machines.
                          The only girl shown at risk was the one on the BSA Bantam, not as it gets up to it's 50mph downhill maximum speed but from falling off it with an open knife tucked in her stocking.

                            Cleaning up

                            Yea, I am cleaning up my post, hope the BSA girl didn't offend I find a lot of funny pictures on the web, like the bodybuilder stuff And, I have a weak spot for pretty girls Been ask to keep it to myself and not offend others, so I comply the best I can. I love to add a laugh when I can, but don't want to do it at someones expence. Love all you guys (and gals) and thanks for years of helping me keep my antique on the road
