you have to give credit to that brimmed "helmet" and hip flask (or is it a shoulder flask?) holster.
it's really a step up from those home depot gloves.

 Looks like the mods deleted his thread.
 He posted his XS650 for sale and then posted about ten pics of him and his other bikes.  But he used a fake name and location until the forum members called him out. They also "counseled" him on the wording of his ad since he was on there multiple times about running issues.
 He claimed he had video of the bike doing 105. I asked him if it would do 85 in second gear.
 Then he said the bike was sold and he was done with XS650.com "FOR GOOD!", only to come back five or six times to reply to people calling bull#$%* on him.
 Some things never change.

Does anyone else find it faintly amusing that this photo was taken on Gay St. NYC. Seeps appropriate to me.

He should really consider moving to PA so he can glue that hat to his head and ride around with it on.

He's somewhat like roadkill skunk; you experience the unpleasantness when you approach, suffer while passing, and the suffering lingers for long after he's gone.

Shame really, has enthusiasm for motorcycles is dwarfed by his behavior and psyche. I just hope he rides safely and for a long time.

That guy has some serious "issues." 

He should join the Black Widows MC (Every Which Way But Loose/Any Which Way You Can) and ride off into the sunset, until he goes down on his sweet, hipsterific gear.

Jwilde's shoulder holster flask contraption is considered an open container in NY state.  He is going to land in the pokey if he isn't careful.

Nuh uuuuuh! He knows a cop in the city so that allows him to break laws everyone else has to follow in order to maintain some semblance of society.

the cops let him park in front of fire hydrants for a rustic shot so his photo crew can set up lighting and camera angles while the traffic is diverted around the block,i cant wait for the movie.

I now work with a kid that has the same mentality as the wilde and I literally almost put him through a wall a few weeks ago. Has to retort everygoddamned thing anyone ever says even if none is required. Knows everything, has an excuse for everything... It drives me #$%*ing nuts.
