    Fun at local bike night

    A few months ago my wife and I decided to ride over to the Quaker Steak and Lube bike night. We had never been to anything like it before. The lot was jammed with tons of new Harleys and $50k plus customs.

    I found a spot to park my 86 GS450 and started walking around checking out the bikes and vendors. We made it inside and had dinner. Afterwards we finished walking the lot and made it back to my bike. It was fun to see that a group of vintage Japanese bikes had taken over the area where I had parked. There was a beautiful GS650 bobber, a couple of CB750 customs, a Virago and a few others.

      Hi cldowers, what QS&L did you go to? I know they have them all over. I usually go to the "original" one in Sharon Pa.or the one in Austintown Ohio. I usually get positive comments on my motorcycles. A lot of "I had one just like it"...
      My Motorcycles:
      22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
      22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
      82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
      81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
      79 1000e (all original)

        WOW I go there also, but only once or twice a year.. the Cookiecutter bikes make my eyes go buggy. hahha lines and lines of RUBs sneering at each other over whose bike has the most options.
        And Whenever I go, I always take something ALL DIRTY, MUDDY and old hahaha... always a crowd around it too..

          That's how I work it too. Motorcycling will never recover from what it's turned into so we might as well have some fun with it.

            Dont see too many vintage bikes at our local Hooters bike nights..other than mine of course. But its sure cool seeing all the Harley guys come by and look the bikes over and share thier " I had one of these ( or some other UJM ) back in the day " stories.
            MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
            1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550

            NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.


            I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
