Of course he wore the requisite black leather jacket, but what got my attention were the leather chaps he wore over his jeans.
If he were really concerned about protection in case of a fall, I think he should have worn something more than the half helmet he stashed in his bag. But something about those V-twins prevents the owner from wearing even a three quarter, not to mention a full face helmet.
But he seemed like a nice enough guy, and we chatted.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

I can't remember the last time I saw a Harley rider around here with a full face helmet. Other brands of cruisers also. To each his own.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

He should have waited till the bystanders had consumed much beer.

Looked like the jap bike was winning.

The next video on the YouTube list showed what kind of people they are. A 57 second clip, with the same people, shows a woman stapling a $20 bill to a man's *******, with the staple likely penetrating his left nut.sigpic[Tom]
