I'm worried for what I may become
Gonna get real stick for this I bet.
I'm 23, and already I'm having to fight my secret attraction towards bikes such as this: I have no intention of growing long hair or a beard and becoming an outlaw. Also you just can not help think 'wannabe' when you see someone on one of these and they're not wearing real MC patches (ie most people). I'm tyring to fight these urges, but I can't help it. Obviously I'm in no place financially or age wise to get me one, but if this attraction doesn't die soon, I'll be screwed when I graduate and start earning. No substitute for a real bike, but would be a real beaut to have and take out on nice summer days. Does anyone else have an embarassing sweet spot for these, especially at 23 (cringe)!? Maybe this will pass, but its currently only getting stronger!..noooo (Incidentally this is an Iron883, the Dyna's are pretty darn sweet too)! |

I think that looks bloody good but I've not heard anything good about their handling.
It would look so weird to see a biker in full power ranger suit on one of those. |

Re: I'm worried for what I may become
Yuk yuk yuk. Are you serious? Go sit on the bottom step I have 26 years on you and I'm not attracted to that ugly boneshaker POS in the least. So it's not an age thing. What do you like about it? That assumes that there is something to like about it, which is assuming rather a lot I think. Fugly. Oh well I suppose someone has to like the strawberry creams

Re: I'm worried for what I may become
Excuse me while I run off to throw up.
Antiquated piece of badly thrown together crap, in my varied experience of working on some of them. I wouldn't swop my 1981 Yamaha SR250 for any brand new Hardly, for fear of losing a good bike in favour of a bad one. |

Re: I'm worried for what I may become
lol I knew it...I dunno what I like about it. There's just something! The majority of cruiser bikes are fugly, but some of the newer ones, I dunno, there is something about 'em!
Not too up on mechanics, so can't argue with ya ther Lozzo, but still find it has me in some sort of hypnotised attraction (not that I'd ever get one before a gixxer or a zx6r, but yeep, I've come out...I like the look of some Harleys)! (Lozzo? Those pics ore only making that Harley look all the more sweeter! Thanks for making me feel less bad! ) Last edited by thulfi; 25-12-09 at 11:54 PM. |
