All I know is it's a Hogley. ;) Yeah, he still has it. The day I took that pic, Rob had just come from a bike/rod show, where he was approached by an outlaw biker gang that wanted him to join. He got a very bad feeling that they were more interested in his bike than him, and declined and left. A couple of weeks later, the same gang was involved in the shoot-out at the Laughlin River Run...

Has anyone actually looked at everything from day 1?


I have.  It took me a while, but a few pages a day and I was caught up.  Think it should be locked?  Turn the computer off and go do something else.

Is it stitches or Staples.. Them staples are so cool when the pull em out,.. not really but beats having to dig out a sunken scabbed suture... I hated that..

Nope had single stitch holding some sort of 'wavy snake stitch' in.
Cut the one out then pulled about 4" of stitches out in one go

It's about 42~43 degrees, doesn't sound much and seems a lot further when your doing it

i pulled up next to a harley guy at a red light on my way home from work last summer. i was used to getting #$%* from everyone who didnt ride an older bike about how i ride some junky old honda, and i assumed i was about to get an earful. he glanced over and didnt say anything, i saw a drink holder on his handlebars and scoffed. then realized it was his 38 in a holster. texas gun laws+austin drivers= riding on his tail hoping to see something amazing. haha

I wonder how that would be considered "concealed"?  It would be ok in Arizona, I don't know about here.

That is 100% not legal in TX unless he is LEO.  I do really like the holster on the saddle, though it would only be legal to open carry in a couple select states.
