« on: May 01, 2011, 07:56:03 PM »
Just got my first ever street bike a couple of weeks ago- '76 CB550F cafe. I'm glad I found this site. Plenty of helpful advise and insiration. Anyway, I'm looking forward to making some new friends here in Indiana and elswhere with a passion for vintage bikes. I think I'm hooked  ;D

I'm glad I've seen quite a few from the Indy area. I'm from Terre Haute, so you Indy guys are pretty much my neighbors. My bike actually came from the Indy area.

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

I was 17 in the summer of 1970. Riding my 67 Bonneville from Indy to CA, camped in Big Sur, on an epic 6 week trip. That song was my theme, singing it over and over in my helmet.

That sounds like it was a pretty cool trip Ron, as for me and the summer of '70, I was busy preparing for my upcoming entry into kindergarden!  ;) ;D ;D

Yeah that thing shook like crazy, I bet I lost 10 years of kidney function in those 6 weeks.  :D   Broke a lot too.  Nothing a kid couldn't handle.
