They are neat! I like the hybrid fueled bike. I would be so nice to get even better gas mileage.
Holy Crap Man , Wow like a hybrid motocycle , what the hell are they gonna think of next . (NOTICE THE SARCASM ) Jesus christ , a auto and a manual trans. What the hell , get a grip , you want good fuel mileage buy a fucking moped or scooter . The day that I worry what kinda fuel mileage my Road King gets is the day I will ask my self if Ive gone yuppie , NOT HAPPENING ,. For the love of god man just ride a Putt because you like it , not because of the fuel mileage or the helping of global warming or the Ozone . I wanna be able to run my Harley On BABY SEAL OIL , will that help the world or Maybe run it on WHALE OIL .
I think it’s great the inventors are working on alternative energy sources to power our vehicles. It won’t be long before oil is unavailable. As for auto trannys, why not? I’m game for giving up my clutch lever as long as I still get as good or better performance from my engine.
OK, that’s it… I ready to die now!
Cause I’ve fucking heard it all!!!
I hate japs.
Where’s all the other “old school” thick-back boned bikers comments on this blog, is it just me and Fathead that are the “real” bikers??? in the entire world????????????????????????
I wanna hear some comments from some 1%er’s.
Have you been smoking your socks, Pan man?
What do you think about these? We are considering buying one of these - http://www.motocyclecorp.com/signature.htm
These 50 cc motorcycles have DOT, EPA and CARB certification. Would love to have your opinion. Thanks!
Annie
They are mopeds, Annie. I don’t know much about mopeds. I’m not sure about international standards, but in Denmark I believe a bike has to be 125cc or more to be classified as a motorcycle.
Jesper You gotta know something about Mopeds ,Dont ya . I know one thing about Mopeds . THAT THEY DONT BELONG ON THE FUCKING ROAD . I mopeds on the road , they are not fast enough to go up hills with out causeing traffick problems . I think they should be abolished from the market .
FATHEAD OUT .
I see the weekend warrior Harley riders are as usual spouting crap.
When you ride 30-40,000 miles a year as i do then call yourself a biker. I work in a Harley store and am tired of the piss pot part time fat old fart know nothing ‘bikers’ who ride 50 miles a week IF its sunny and they have thier matching HD undies on. Get a grip man if you ride a lot of miles more power to you no matter what the hell you ride.
We are all differnt cos we RIDE not because we ride one model.
Get real man.
I almost forgot.. over 60% of Harley parts are of non american origin, and the Honda Goldwing is truly made in America 100%.
even the old school Harleys parts are made in Taiwan now or in China as they make them cheaper than we can here and they are just as ‘high’ quality as the stock parts.
“We are all differnt cos we RIDE not because we ride one model.”
+1
Awesome post!
Thanks, Simonator.
Well, well, well! A crusty ole “real biker” has finally decided to join us… hey Fathead, chew him up and spit him out. …while I wipe the remains of the “real biker” off my ass. ..heh,heh.
Oh, Jesper old buddy, I have a clear understanding about the difference between European “bikers” and American “bikers”…
(and no, this isn’t a slam)
While European “bikers” have as much appreciation for the oil dripping, gasoline smelling, chopper building; …and all the beer drinking comradery that goes along with it (as much as we American “bikers” do)… you’re right about one thing.
We American “bikers” are the crudest, low-lifest, craziest, mutha-fuggars on this whole fucking planet! …and it’s all because we smoke too many socks!
Oh, and …honda goldwings suck. (Its designer spoke jap). Doesn’t matter where it’s fucking made anymore! It’s the original design drawings and who’s head they came out of that matters!
Have you seen Yamaha’s wild concept bikes from the show? Check them out here…(http://www.thelohasian.com/2007/10/vehicle-trends-cool-green-concept-bikes.html)
OH MY , Real biker , Did ya make that name up to try to impress us or just me . “I work in a Harley Store “. Last time I checked real mopeder its called a Halrey Dealership .Well why would you work at a Harley store , do you sell Harley underwear , do you like to size that shit up for the men or what . You come on here like you are one tough som bitch . Well ya probably aint . But who am I to talk ,or a type . I am A biker . Been one bewfore the discovery channel even new what one was . So are ya one of those RUBS son . Go get back on yyour Vespa and ride til ya find yourself . Stop watching the movie wild hogs . It isnt true . You wouold still get your ass kicked and left for dead on the street in my world . For running ya suck hole .
“THE GODS MAY HATE ME , BUT WHEN IT ALL ENDS,I WILL BE RIDING MY SCOOTER STRAIGHT TO HELL .
Damn Fathead, …way to chew ass!
I bet Mr. “real biker” will have to change his Harley undies after that.
Oh, and just for the record…I haven’t stepped foot inside a Goddamn Harley “store” since the days of cast iron juggs and tin primary covers!
Those fag-ass pretty boys are the fucking “know nothings”.
A “real biker” does not need or even neccessarily WANT a Harley. Just because the old farts from the 30’s told you its true don’t believe it. They just didn’t know any better. I would think a “real man” would want a bike that actually commands respect, not a ultra mild Harley that a Morot Maid can peg the throttle of lol
So just can it ya wannabe jap-haters, you make US real riders look bad.
Ooops of course that is MOTOR Maid:)
Don’t panic,
I’m nearly finished perfecting teleportation. Once that is offered to the masses, all the oil left is for us chopper jockeys……
Nice
Awesome bikes, things are moving in the motorcycle world.
Hey guys why spend all the energy on writing crap on each other,what happen to solidarity, the rest of the world think we are nuts so no need to “chew” each other’s asses. Hop on you machine and take a cruse.
P.S. those automatic bike are CRAP though there’s no argument there
Well Danny the last straw was having my RD400 spit on a few years back, I have no sympathy for someone locked into riding those underpowered overpriced lumps. I been dealing with Harleys and the snobs that own them for over 30 years and I don’t really consider them true motorcyclists in the 1st place.
So now I’m not a true motorcyclist, what ever that is. I happen to own both a Honda and a Harley, and frankly I don’t give a shit what you consider me.
There’s idiots all around. The people who felt they had to spit on your RD400 was morons. But your prejudice against people who own a Harley is no better.
The lamest people on the face of this mud ball is the ones who can’t respect other peoples choices just because they wouldn’t have made the same choice them selves.
Doesn’t matter if you ride a Harley, Yamaha or a bicycle. We’re all different, and that’s a good thing.
Sorry Jesper, you should have known I wasn’t talking about you. You know who I mean, the guys who wouldn’t ride another bike on a dare, the guys that are afraid to demo a Victory because it would hit home they spent twice what their bike was actually worth when they coulda had a bike that could out run, stop and handle a Harley and have more American parts on it then Harleys have had since 1969 AND have some bucks left over. I am happy you own a Honda but thats about it, I actually kinda feel for you……
WOW I am Jap, I like to wok on HArley .I build great bike on learning channel and food network . But I would not SPIT on Honda , I would take a big shit on it instead! My Fatherson make honda , he even say they crap.EXCEPT JESPERS of course . …… LOL…..
My fother make jap crap so harley riders can drag honda down road with chain .
I wish that your father went to school longer than you did, or Hondas would be even better lol
YAMAHALE ITS ME I KNOW YOU DONT BELEIVE IT. Listen come to a dealership , tell them ya know me and ill hook ya up with a really good scoot. COme to YORK PA and lets have coffee and donuts next week . Ill set it up with my people .
Sincerly WILLY G DAVIDSON .
Please excuse “chica” and “willy”. It’s the artist formerly know as FATHEAD, who now get kicks on letting out nonsense posing as “celebrities”.
Yeah hi Willy—is the G for “Gee, what color will we make them this decade?”
Hey I couldnt notice the people who reply to this blog . They are like the big wigs in the industry . Im amazed that these men are replying to these . Who ever runs this web page blog keep up the awesome work . Im hooked. I will be on from now on . If anyone Knows the address to send Mr. Billy Lane E-mail and the rest could they post them so I have them on my pc.
V-starman
V-starman you must be joking—-if that was really Willy G then I am the Pope lol
What do you mean .What is this Blog a bunch of jokers. I found this blog on a forum for moto enthusiasts. Now I find out that the people who are on it are posing as someone else . That is not funny and is very embarrassing . I told my friend at work that I ride with about this site and told him who was on it blogging . I feel like a dumb bloke. Now what do I tell him? IM very disapointed. I thought that was realy them until I read the stuff this Fathead guy writes .Hes very Immature.
So, V-starman, I see you are from Maine, just like Fathead and Pan Chop Man. What a coincidence. I’d appreciate if you guys would stop messing around with your names etc. You are wasting both my time and the time of people reading this blog.
JESPER,
I guess you guys over the pond dont like HUMOR. I was Just trying to spice things up with a couple of Jokes and Laughs . I GUESS I WAS THE ONLY ONE LAUGHING. I guess I waste your time , So I will no longer contact your blog or tell anyone about it . I always thought the true spirit of Motorcycles was to have fun doing what ever it was. If people dont find it humorous to joke and hack , then they need to go to a HUMOR MANAGEMENT CLASS. For christ sake , life is to short not to have fun. If people on this Blog take everything seriously , then I say FUCK IT . I am a true BIKER , I guess I need to STAY TRUE TO MY LIFE STYLE AND stop contacting POSERS. AS for PAN MAN HE HAD nothing to do with my harrassing your BLOG . He didnt even know who was who. I will tell WILLY G , to never contact the BLOG as for there is no humor .
FUCKI IT ,
FATHEAD
Never to return , IM 86′n your BLOGG.
oH FOR THE posers , THAT MEANS IM ALL DONE WITH IT .WILL NOT REFER NO ONE TO YOU OR YOUR BLOG.
I’m sorry you feel that way, but people was offended, and didn’t understand your humor. So I had to spend time explaining that it was just for fun. Which I don’t find particularly fun.
If you feel you have to ride into the horizon with your middle finger dangling after you, that’s your decision.
I just read all this stuff.
If you’d allow me to Jesper, I just have a small amount to say…
Me and my friend Fathead are truthfully quite decent men. I won’t speak for myself, but I’d like to let you know that my bro is a decorated Veteran with a Bronz Star and more than one Purple Heart. Just keep in mind that I, Pan Chopper Man take my hat off to men like “Fathead” not for how they write comments on blogs, but for thier physical and mental sacrifices in combat for my freedom.
God Bless America…..and pan-choppers.
I understand, Pan man. I’m running a blog for motorcycle enthusiasts, and want every type of motorcycle rider to feel welcome.
As you know, I’m not strict with moderation. People can say what they want. But when deliberate harassment threaten the existence of my site, I have to put my foot down.
I’m sure your bro is a stand up guy. But I’ll tell the Queen of England to put a sock in it, if I feel it’s necessary.
THE ONLY REASON WHY I AM ON THIS FUCKING SITE IS BEC AUSE I TOLD “PANMAN” I WOULD READ WHAT HE WROTE DOWN ON MY BEHALF. I THANK YOU “PANMAN” FOR YOUR BROTHERHOOD . AS I SAID BEFORE . I WILL NEVER AGAIN POST ON THIS BLOGG AGAIN . AS FOR PANMAN THANK YOU FOR STICKIN UP. AS FOR THE OTHERS MAY YOUR COUNTRYS BE INVADED AND CONQUERED .THE US WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL BECAUSE OF HONOR AND COMMITMENT OF OTHERS. I WILL FIGHT TO THE DEATH TO SUPPORT MY COUNTRY. I WILL FIGHT TO THE DEATH TO DEFEAT ANY COUNTRY WHO OPPOSES IT .
FUCK IT
FATHEAD
lol Fattie, don’t let the door hit you—-your views on the world are as outdated as your mototcycle. Just go over to Ironhorse and blab about ‘cagers’ and ‘Jap bikes’ with the rest of the biker neanderthals. Would you defend Taiwan and Japan too, since without them Harley-Davidson could not exist?
Sayonara hahahaha
you guys are soo angry , if you had a mans bike to channel all that pent up aggression on we may find you more aproachable, pan chopper,lol. grrrrr , go get em boys, nice n steady.lol
SUPERMOTO
FOR REAL MEN AND HAIRY WOMEN
Pan Chopper Man & Fathead;
Harleys suck…sorry… but they do.
Also, as a vet (or vets) you ought to be pretty damned pissed off at this current government selling out our country, bankrupting everyone, driving up debt, and selling off infrastructure to the Chinese and others.
I’m a vet as well and I thank you for your contribution to our nation. But we are not free. We are corportacracy that has stripped us all of our rights and is selling us out everyday.
You ought to be directing some of that anger you have for Hondas or whatever at Bush and help the rest of us take back this country. Instead you sit here running you big mouth then talk about freedom and blah blah blah.
You got no freedom!!! Try to exercise your constitutional rights that you and fatman fought for. The patriot act took all that away while you were sitting on your harley bragging.
What’s with the hybrid crap? To blazes with the Japaneese scooters a lot of cheap copies of good USA IRON LOL MR Takemoto san take ur rice burners and go back from where ever it is you crawled out.
