I do have to say 'you' lot over the pond have some cheek to take the piss out of our teeth given some of the smiles that greeted us everywhere we went.  


"To take the Piss." English slang, to mock or make a joke about....

I was passing comment on the number of very friendly people we saw once we got out west who seemed to be lacking in the oral furniture department. Oddly most seemed to be wearing a John Deer or some kind of firearm related baseball cap, hell some of them I could have ridden the Road King through the gaps in their mouths!

They are a special breed of environmentalist dedicated to trying to solve the energy crisis. Their "oral furniture" is designed to allow them to eat all the corn on the cob they want and still have enough left on the cob for ethanol production.   ;D
Keep your bike in good repair: motorcycle boots are not comfortable for walking.

I don't know why you guys think R65s can't cruise at 90, at least solo.  That's how I rode mine to Medford.  It's not like my Triumph, things don't vibrate off.

Yeah it would suck without my Windjammer.
