I was talking to my rather young female assistant a few days ago. She is thinking of buying her husband a Harley for Christmas. She told me how she just loved to spend time at the new Harley Davidson super complex on the the edge of town.
I was impressed thinking that I had misjudged her for a girly girl when he was really an aficionado of the V Twin engine and all that goes with it.
That lasted one brief moment, then she said, “They just have the most adorable boots and the cutest tops there.”
I swear I could hear Sonny Barger turning over in his grave. But I just nodded and went on about the business of the day as any discussion of the true meaning of The Motor Company would have been lost on her anyway.
Thank God for the Charlie Brechtel’s of the world. When talking to the "Thunder Press" about his album "Made in the USA, Brechtel said, "Made in the USA" is a bit like a course in American Biker History 101...Yes, class as hard as it is to believe, there once was a time when we had only four gears, no shocks and had to carry three quarts of reclaimed 50 weight just to get down to the local pool hall,"
Now 50 years old and living in Angels Camp California he continues to carry the message of American Motorcyclisms through his albums, his concerts and his internet TV show.
I finally got around to putting the materials together from my last ride and here they are.
I am a little downhearted today because the guys in the Beemer club are giving me a hard time about this rebuild.
Usually it doesn't bother me but today it does. Anyway, here is the video.
