What used to be on my old ‘45 tank shift would dazzle some today Manual spark advance on the left grip throttle on the right Heel and toe clutch pedal on the lower left brake pedal on lower right Hardtail frame in the rear springer suspension up front Leather bags and fringed seat There were still a few Indians with skirted fenders and a great in-line engine But that old ‘45 made me feel so alive *“and the chicks were free” *just a touch from Dire Straits "Money For Nothing" Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |

As a kid of 12, I had a "Whizzer" motor kit on a balloon-tired 28" frame. My first motorcycle was a "Hindenburg Hercules", a German bike with a 125cc Sachs engine. It was much faster than the 125cc "Hummers" that Harley built for awhile. I have a much more comfortable ride these days, but it's not as much fun as those first ones were. Thanks for your comment Mr. Bolton. I appreciate your visit. Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |

That's a great attitude to have Lori Rhoden, but as a young man with 'wheels', sometimes it was the other way around!  Thanks for your insightful (if not revealing) comment. Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |
