Night Out with the Harley Boys

[wheelysteve]

Went to the bike night at Reading Hardley Ableson this evening. Very good turn out and I didn't get thrown out !

I've tried hard to see the attraction of HD bikes/lifestyle but I just can't see it.



Only one other Zed there. Is this one our members' bikes ?

lovely Zed thou

[mick znone]

yes lovely z1000, is it a fold away number plate then
nice colour too, thats a metalic version of the red z1000 is it

[Taffus]

I don't get the the Harley thing either, I don't do dressing up etc. we have a local dealership in Guildford, I popped in on their open day on on my GPz1100, sales staff were pissed off at the attention it got...
that said at least its a bike but it does attract more that its fair share of tossers!

You know the saying Harley the only t shirt company to sell motorbikes as well actually don't mind them had one for a while and once stop trying to ride it like a jap 4 and just cruise on it it was alright but couldn't get all the back patches and badges also went an organised run no passing the road captain ffs whatever, nice zeds 😀

No prob's with the bikes - just don't see the need for the Fancy Dress outfits.

I had a 1200 sportster, lovely evo engine and it did go well, chrome and paint was shite and gearbox blew up through not having a cush rubber, then fitted a kevlar belt, pity other manufacturers don't use it, loved it on b roads.

The red zed 1000 is steve kirby's I think.

If you can pass the road captain, he's got the wrong job.

You don't need to join the tassel club to ride a Harley, you can just own a Harley and mix with your own like-minded mates in ordinary clothes.

I think part of the attraction is that you were there and there was somewhere for you to be.

There wasn't a zed night to go to instead.

On again tomorrow night.
