No tools, don't know where the fuses are, What's becoming of our youth? A Harley rider rode past with a smile. I'll remember that when he is on the side of the road. This is a small community, it WILL happen. :evil:

I shortened the clip.

Heh. They thought they could tow it with another bike? I guess none of these guys have insurance, or even $50 for a tow truck? Wow. Those all of those bikes are probably stolen.

Of course our bikes are many times better than a woman and "easy to get along with" - Sorry about that Bud !
Towing a bike with belts - were they trying for a Darwin ? Dumb as F**k
You will see that chinese boat anchor on the side of the road one day - no doubt about that,
My bikes have always just been "IT". Never understood why Bikes, Boats etc are she ??

I think it's a group of "Hispanic" guys, (gotta be politically correct) :dry: that formed a club and bought crotch rockets to be cool. At least they weren't Sprotsers. You know what they say about them. I could tell most of them resented me. I wonder why? :huh:
When I bought my Z1 in 75, there were four of us. Jim M 73 Z!, Larry M 74 Z1a, me 75 Z1b and Jim Erwin with his new 76 KZ 900. He and I were the only ones that knew how to work on bikes. The other two would take their bikes to the shop and brag about how much they spent. :S Jim M was the veteran. He was unbeatable in the turns. I could keep up with him, Larry spent $2000 on a 1015 kit, Kirker, cams, shocks and other mods but couldn't ride for SHT. He'd walk away from us in the straights and be in the way in the turns. Jim E was the slowest of the group. The KZ 900 was detuned. We were on top of the food chain but it didn't last. I left LA and never looked back.

Last year I passed by some Ninja's at 70 crossing the Mojave. I was at 4000 RPM and they were at 65 at 5000. All hunkered down like that. I was on a 400 mile ride, they were just going to the next town. To each his own. :whistle:

I don't think these are the kind of guys who get their bikes serviced. They wreck it before the first oil change.
