John Wayne on a Honda should pretty much end the idea that only Harleys are fit bikes for American riders.
Which movie do you think this still is from? He wore suspenders all across his career, from Stagecoach to The Searchers to the Cavalry movies and onwards. He's older, here. Big Jake?

ReplyDeleteI never had that illusion.... :>)
Sorry, I'm afraid not. American made bikes are the only real bikes for American riders. I love John Wayne, but just because he sat on a turd is no reason to buy one.
ReplyDeleteSomeone forgot to tell Eddie Lawson. :>)
ReplyDeleteIn fairness, Joel, I think Harley Davdison's dirt bikes were made in Italy.

Harley Riders gleeful tool around on an old Indian - especially the ones with a suicide clutch. Ducati makes a very nice ride that just has a different styling - more science-fiction than rumble. And older Ducatis? Mmm -mm. Joel is setting up an artificial rule.
