OK I admit it's a bit stupid but we all have a little 1%er in us... right?

Supposedly I'm "Ol'Ratso", and I ride with "Dead Donkeys MC"?

Yeah this one comes up on the various boards from time to time....

I figure if you work on and ride a 30+ year old motorcycle....your a lunatic fringe.

Probably not the 1% as originally qouted by the AMA

But definitely in a small select group.

Maybe Heffey can make us a 3 piece patch w rocker

Ride any bike that is not a v-twin cruiser clone and you'll be a 1%-er.

I'm fascinated by the post WW II parallel between the Cafe set and the Bobber set. Both were (simplistically put) expressions of the vets (and others) on each side of the Atlantic and shaped in part by geography and surely cultural tastes. However, their aim was similar- strip away the flab and go faster. Hot Rods.

I think it was auto journalist Peter Egan who compared American (cruiser) riding style and European (Cafe, street fighter) style with horse saddle styles of the respective countries. It's Marlborough Man versus Fox hunter.

I would rather have an Ariel Square Four than a Harley any day! I agree though that the whole bad biker thing is a fantasy which Harley has used quite well to it's advantage and sold to millions of people who wouldn't even ride otherwise. If you ever go to a Harley dealer ask about the "dark customs book" and you will see manipulative sales at it's worst.

Well... Ichi,

I'm not sure what or who your "sitting @ the keyboard and fabricating this stuff" reference is directed towards. Is there a single statement made by me that is factually inaccurate?

Regardless, I agree with your opinion this romanticism created around the 'out law' lifestyle and the social elitism is in the least pathetic and at the most dangerous- as in your experience. But being a youngster at 42 yr. old... what could my life experience possibly be?!

And you're right; the comments made were about styles more so than attitudes. But are the two so completely unrelated? BTW: My uncle (who is a few years your senior) was a biker in the olden days and I don't think he knifed anyone. I could be wrong though.

In my opinion the only people who should be wearing leather chaps and vest are the guy from The Village People and strippers.

I think that at least for this thread, you shouldn't be allowed to post unless you retreive and use your new name and club affiliation.

Sorry if adding below link is in some way a forum faux pas- please tell me if so- but the Toe Cutters MCC, of which I'm a life long member in good standing, has a bit of cinematic glory to be proud of.
