Nice, some greatly skilled people build these bikes and look individualised, but the guys around here seem to ride the bikes built by the same guy. They basically all look the same just different colours. My bike days ended over 25 years ago. A really good mate of mine at the time, come a gutsa big time, broke his back and spent near a year at P.A hospital spinal unit, then the next couple of years doing rehab and relearning how to walk, put me off bikes big time after seeing and being there with him for all of that.

 
I was dead on the side of the road got revived,dead on the operating table too.Thank f&ck for skilled ambos and doctors alive is better. Can't ride anymore but still love bikes

Exactly right there, thank god for the ambos and the doctors and surgeons. I used to work with a guy, but was in the next section at a job I got just after I left school. Everyone said to watch him, but I think they were scared of him or something. He was probably mid 40's, had one prosthetic lower leg, his left leg was twisted inwards and walked with a massive limp. Used to get on with really well with him and he was telling me one day about his accident. Reckoned he was dead when ambo's arrived, kept reviving him on the way to hospital, doctors told his Mrs that they didn't think he'd make it, spent months in a coma, took years and years of rehab for everything, from talking, to walking and everything else in between. But the mad old bugger use to keep riding bikes, rain, hail or shine. The mad old bugger reckons what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, so I told him the story of my mate (he was still in hospital at the time) he reckons when your times up, your times up and when his is finally up, and he'll probably be riding there, pi$$ing himself laughing. I remember thinking this guy is totally nuts. I've often wondered if the mad old bugger is still alive.

PS just realised while writing this, about calling him a mad OLD bugger. I am now near about the age he was at the time. Where did all of the years go. LOL.

 
Good story. 1 of the things I miss most now that I am no longer part of the bikie world is blokes like you mentioned and the old school boys that looked like Vikings on bikes, wild beards, long hair and tattoos,the fact that if you rode out with 1 of them you road back with them no matter what it took they didn't abandon you. How things change.

I guess my Beemer is not very cool, but it is comfortable, and that is more important to me.

I miss the bikes too. Spent seven hours on the operating table with 35minutes of flatline time nine years ago. Can't ride or fly anymore, two of my favorite things gone forever. Came back to my first love, big mustangs..

Was looking at your sidecar - that vantage point would be very different for me. Sitting that low to the ground as a passenger! The illusion of speed would be CRAZY weird. Especially on the twisty (fun) roads!!!
