Hey Rick,,

    Don't get do persnickity.

    Think you have it bad? Try riding a Harley (Joe Young will back this up)
to your favorite whatever and someone sure as God made little apples will
pull in with a Harley Sportster (sport bike in HD's world and smaller
displacement than a full HOG) A full HOG is (Within the Evo design) 80 cubic
inches or 88 cubic inches and I have to admit to being guilty of the next
fact as the
next man.

    " Nice
Sportster!!.................................................................

........When does it GROW UP??? "

Believe me the look one generally gets is I've heard it before but every now
and then you get one rider who jaw hits the pavement
cause he never had the question asked before. Great fun!!!
