Luckydevil, THAT was beeeeuuutttiiifful.
That is exactly how it was/is.
Some years ago I needed a chainbreaker (82 SuperGlide) the Harley shop was only about 3 blocks from my house so I just sauntered down to pick one up.
There I am in my oily jeans, longhair, beard, waitin' my turn at the parts counter.
The salesman was busy with two quail who were deciding which t-shirts they should buy (no shit).
I ask the guy at the counter if they had any chainbreakers, and he says, "Harleys don't have chains".
Well, says I, they fucking used to.
Never set foot in that shop again.
Since then I've had occaision to wander thru todays "boutique dealerships".
They are a far cry from the shops my ol' man used to work in, and I grew up around.
Now if it ain't a brand new hog it ain't worth havin'.
Yuppie-Davidson.
A guy I know took his Pan in for a oilchange at the Harley shop, can't do it, they said, your bikes to old, the mechanic doesn't know how to do a oilchange on your bike.
What the fuck could be simpler than an oilchange on an old v-twin?
Yuppie-butt jewlery,that's all the new hogs are now.
