Hey!
Bikers can be fun! Usta work in a very high security aerospace company. The boss sent me over to the fiberglass shop to look at a mockup of the Agusta helicopter cockpit. Walked into the building and it looked like an Outlaws biker convention.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) Walked back out, looked at the sign again to make sure it said "Fiberglass Shop". Yup, right place so I went back in. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) First guy I saw was a biker turning a foam core for a missile nose cone. Another one was working on an early UAV and the other guys took me over to look at the mockup. Talk about beautiful work...... Bottom line, great guys, great fiberglass work, great fun in the bar after work, and they had their own world in a large corporation. Boss had a good laugh on the newbie engineer. Rite of passage....I told him I waved my pocket protector at them... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif) Ken |

Seems like more geeks look like bikers these days and the bikers look like geeks. Most people I see on Harleys are middle age businessman types trying to look cool.

Theres an accountant for a good sized company that comes into the bank branch i work at who looks like mikey from OCC with dark hair... he's always wearing t-shirts and stuff. My only thought is that he must be a pretty damn good accountant to wear what he does and look like that in a larger company like that. That and he's about 29.

I was buying a part for my Passat at the local VW dealer and asked the parts guy how much air-cooled business they did.
He replied "About zero". Then the guy behind me asked what I had for an air-cooled VW. I turned around to see a tall skinny guy covered with tattoos and BPO's (Body Piercing Ornaments - MILSPEAK) wearing Goth clothing. Very Nice guy, 914 owner, articulate and very knowledgable about the cars. We didn't exchange info, but should have. My kids got a good lesson in not judging a book by it's cover. Fin |

Yes, and it's disgusting. I built my first Harley in 1977 from a blown-up WLA 45 cubic inch WWII engine I bought for $250. And that's all I started with, just the engine. Lots of research, scrounging, chasing down WWII surplus Harley parts, going to strange chopper shops, and a year and a half later I had a complete 45 cu. in. side valve, side shift Harley. I rode that until 1986 when HD came out with the aluminum Evolution engine Sportster, and at a price I could afford. Back then few beyond hardcore bikers rode HD's. And if you were on an HD, any HD, other HD riders acknowledged you as part of the group, no matter what your occupation was or what you looked like. Then the mid 1990's rolled around and all the baby boomer geeks decide to relive their fading youth by looking like "Badass Harley Bikers" on the weekend. Shit, now everywhere you turn there's these gray headed, gray bearded guys on Harleys with brand new black leather everything, wallet chains, bandannas, and all that shit. Few if any know the first thing about their bike in terms of maintenance, overhaul, or anything. If it breaks they call the dealer. To each their own, I suppose. Don 75 914 w/Buick V6 76 914 2.0L w/broken valve (soon to get a Buick V6 too) 86 HD Sportster started life as an 883cc (55 CID) now sports a 1200cc (74 CID) w/S&S Super carb, Gordon Kately Cams, Sun aluminum rims, Buchanan SS Spokes (18" rear 21" front), Dyna ignition, and too much other shit to list... all work done by myself... FWIW |

last year i met a guy who rode up on a triumph. and started talking about his bike, he said its his daily and that he hardly rides his 5 others bikes [harley's] because he didn't want to be associated with all the "name branders" as he called them. he couldn't stand the way that the "name branders" looked down on any one who didn't have the harley boots to match the harley jacket or the harley gloves or the harley sun glasses or the harley ass wipe [toilet paper]. sad to see some one get pushed out of something they have loved for a life time because of a bunch of wannabe snobs.

I have a good friend who rides a '65 Panhead. It's his labor of love, keeping it on the road, but he knows his bike. I haven't made the jump to 2 wheels yet (although I'm thinking that I really need to take the Md. motorcycle course now that it's offered in my town)... I would have to sell the tail dragger to make room in the garage, though.

Right about now two wheels are looking like a good option considering the gas prices aren't likely to be going down anytime soon. In its hot rod state of tune my HD Sporster still gets approx. 60 mpg as long as I keep the RPM's at 3000 or below, which makes it perfect for my 32 mile (round trip) daily commute to work where speeds are all under 60 mph. Of course winter times in Idaho are another story when it comes to commuting on a bike, of any type. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) |

I think at times it is even worse for the BMW crowd. I am an outsider at most BMW places, but I like it that way. Most of the riders (not all) of BMWs that I have met have been very yuppy, dorky (in the bad way), and into the whole name brand BS. Its hard to associate with such folks. |

I was just telling a friend of mine the other day.
I used to work in downtown Cincinnati and we had a locker room in our building, so when I was preparring for the Flying Pig Marathon I would run at lunch up past "over the rhine" (ghetto) and thru Eden Park to Victory Ave and McMillan Rd. The crack dealers on Woodbine started saying "Hi Officer" to me every day. (I cut my hair short like the airforce) and I let them after a few months most people on that street thought I was a cop. I didnt care, they never robbed me... People who decide you are how you dress crack me up. Bet you have never been to an AA meeting. You would have to pick your jaw up off the floor at the diversity and the similarity. Judge not, or you will be judged. |
