Now this brings a whole new meaning to class. I can't quit ROFLMAO. Just when I thought I had seen it all...

Gee I hope you haven't offended the Hob.
Quite a work of art there really. How long are the pipes.
I did notice a nice pair of carbies.
Hallelujah brother.
P.S... Mike, Could you please start a new thread, giving the meanings to all American abbreviations..

Hey AC,

Offend hobot with the strange and weird? Have you been reading his posts, like the apehangers he wants...etc,? :shock:

That's a good idea about a thread for abbreviations. I don't know half of them either. We need someone under 30 to create a complete list! :lol: But I'll get some together this week and start a thread for others to add. BTW (by the way) ROFLMAO means "rolling on floor laughing my a$$ off".

Is the 80 mph cruising speed with the surrey top on? Wow what a sail. The funniest part is how the ad is written seriously.

Mama Mia!!!

I don't think I can make pasta alla puttanesca or spaghettini carbonara and feel right about it ever again!
98% of all Harleys ever sold are still on the road. The other 2% made it home.

Now, Now, like ole man Porsche said; "When people understand the function, they will see the beauty."

So, I'm thinking that maybe we're all so narrow-minded, we are unable to understand the function, therefore completely missing out on the beauty. Maybe that tarp on toothpicks is a disguise for an otherwise uncontrollable chick magnet that he can only bring out at night. For $7K, its gotta be something more than you can see. I mean, just how many feet down the block could you go before that top blew completely off? :shock: :? :shock:

We have a Christmas parade here and that machine would fit right in. Just needs off centre wheels.
Quite a modest price considering....
" Won several trophies "
"A very well ballanced bike "
" Unique features "
" NOT built to be a show piece "
Plus it's fitted with... Micuni carborators.
Euro rickshaw, It's a steal.
