Either
a) Just stolen some really tall dude's bike or
b) Trying to overcompensate for the small space he occupies standing at the urinal

What a moron, unsafe as, little control at any speed  :loser:

That not only looks stupid, but that is stupid to have a road bike. That is a accident in the making cause that has to be hard to drive like that.

That has to be fake cause you can't go aroud a corner like that, no leverage.

This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

You know how I know you're gay?
because you have ape hangers .......
:smilielol: 
I never understood those.  I guess it was the style back in the day but it sure looks retarded now.  Very little control and stability with those things.

Then again, they are Harley's so there's a good chance they spent more time working on them than riding them.

What's the point of this?  You can't drive it over a speed bump in a parking lot in the real world, never mind going really fast in the real world.  But it still gets lots of praise from our kind.

I call fake.





Different bike, same ape hangers:



Looks like the same bike and same guy, but a different paint job. My buddy has ape hangers  but not nearly that big  and his bike is hard to maneuver. Well to each his own.
I pointed to two old drunks sitting across the bar from us and told my friend
"That's us in 10 years".
He said "That's a mirror, dip-shit!

I've often thought that those look stupid, but the ones in THESE pictures look dangerous as well.
I know a few riders, but no "Bikers". The riders I know have normal looking bikes.

utah has the same law not above the shoulders.... cops use best judgment but they can pull you over for it. a good way to catch the guys with a little to much booze on there breath.
Restoring a charger is like a saying I heard along time ago "I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it".... Jesus I wish I could remember who said that...

I love Harley's but it amazes me that these things would pass as road worthy. How do they get away with registering them?


Tomorrow is promised to no one.......drive your Charger today.

Come to think of it................how do you stop your hands from going numb?  Surely you'd lose all feeling especially in your fingers.

Looks like shit, pipes look like crap as well!!!
Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

Looks unsafe. Try to avoid road debris riding that thing. I dont see a clutch lever on the bars. Wonder how it is modified.
