There is also the "filthy few". The guys who where that patch. Avoid eye contact and leave the room.

When I was a youngster. No one owned a harley w/o either risking having it taken away,or belonging to a club. Was'nt till the mid 70's could anyone own a harley and not worry bout losing it to a local club..I could go on and on with biker storys..Crazy stuff!! The most impressive thing I ever saw. was hanging at one of our local parks, There was an abrubt railroad crossing in front of park. a couple of harleys came along doing at least 60 mph hardtail pans of course.. They flew a good 100 ft. right alongside of each other. How they kept control with long springers and hardtails still baffles me..

There was a protest in Dallas last year against the 1%, they called them selves occupy Harley

Back when I had my old Norton Commando, Harley riders would welcome it. It was all thumbs up. So why the anti Japanese? Because they're fast? (The Japs bombed PEARL HARBOR, yes...And the English once OWNED US!) Three years ago, I bought an H2 to Daytona for bike week and while I was out at the Cabbage Patch, Some one kicked it over and smashed it up pretty badly. An anonymous bad ass.......

You were lucky.

When I lived in Flagstaff, there was a cinder pit where it was not uncommon to find one or more beat up, shot up and burned out Japanese motorcycles.

I remember walking into a bar north of Flag, and there was a ratty looking old Harley with a shotgun mounted in a holder, as well as a pistol.
