Motorcycle Riders?

[melensdad]

Thanks, I will look at them the next time I roll through Cycle Gear in Noblesville...

Funny thing about Harleys, the last time I looked at AMA they had more records than anyone...

Agreed, and I know most of HD friends actually run at well above most speed limits.

But as I said, I just thought it was a funny sign and given the way I ride I'm the last guy who should be posting that. All in good fun.

Specially the bagger windshield costume crowd... And it is a funny sign..

I can't imagine the excitement of a Goldwing event. Harley folks do have fun

In the past, the "Wing Dings" have held their annual ride-in here in Fort Wayne.

Thankfully, they're much more sedate.

They are big events. Much more about the love of riding than bravado.

They are old enough to need colostomy bags.

They are old enough to need colostomy bags.

Most likely smaller prostates would be helpful... Otherwise all you would be hearing from the porta jons are...... release.... release....Please release..... and all of them leaving a puddle in front of the urinal.... Think of the Diabetics. ...

I have to admit that I am drawn to the 2018 and newer Goldwings.

But as I already have a 500+ pound bike I'm thinking that a lighter bike is in my future, not a heavier one.

Reminder to the Harley guys that popularity doesn't always mean best even if it sticks around for a while

What does Ralph Nader have to do with it?

Best is relative to what one is comparing.... Air cooled to water cooled perhaps?

Go and spend some time going through all of AMA's record books...
I'll save you some time, Harley has more records than any other manufacturer....
If there was a motorcycle event that Harley Davidson wanted to compete in that they dont now, History says they would be front runners in that event also...
And unlike bursting into flames like a leaky Corvair, Harleys dont catch on fire until run over by a cage...

This may have already been discussed here, but I am feeling lazy and didn't want to browse through 102 pages. What is your favorite riding route in Indiana? Mostly looking for trips I can do in 1 day, as I'm avoiding hotels right now. I've done some riding around Brown County and surrounding areas. Usually takes me 10 hours to get there, ride the back hills some then head for home. I prefer to go around Indy, usually heading over to highway 9 then west after I get south of the Indy suburbs. If you know some good rides in the northern half of the state, that would be great.

Not an INGO member, but another car runs into a motorcycle and kills the rider.

I really enjoy riding but the cars need to be more observant.

Yup, according to accident statistics they are our 2nd biggest problem. 1st biggest cause of crash is running a motorcycle into an immovable object. But after that, damn cars! Most of the problem with cars is turning across a traffic lane and then saying "... I never saw the motorcycle ..."

Yeah that was fun

Not keen to try it again, huh?
