Hello from the Yoop
« on: October 07, 2017, 07:03:48 PM »
Hi all
I’ve been lurking here about a week or so, I've finally decided to post. My current bikes are a 1974 CB750, an Amen Savior with a ‘74 SOHC, and a 2012 Softail Deluxe. I'm Always looking for my next project or parts to complete whatever I have in the garage. I have plenty of pics so I'll post some as soon as I'm able. Looking forward to chatting with you guys and learning more about these beautiful bikes.

First of all, welcome.

Now humor an old man, I've never heard of a yooper before, so WTF is it?
Is it a choice?
Is it contagious?
Is it hereditary?
Is it an East Coast thing?
Should I be worried for the women and children?

If you were born in the lower peninsula the yoopers call you a troll.
