But when he drops it, how many are needed to pick it up?

Good post LOL!

Harleys haven't vibrated since they brought out the EVO engine in 1992. Well, a bit of course, but it's a bike right? It's supposed to. Vibration is designed as part of the experience. Why do you think your girl loves to backride with you if not for that feeling?
Otherwise go buy a BMW or one of those wimpy yuppy jobs and you better not park it outside where I go drinking if you know what's good for you. The Manila Mad Dogs MC will want to scrutinize your credentials in considerable detail.
I don't know about filling her up with coco-fuel, Lord knows we have enough of those durn trees where I live. If anywhere should be developing alternative fuels it should be the Philippines, but you have a feudal society here dating from the Spanish colonial years which is about power and money.
We have elections coming up May 10 but nothing will change.
Howls of outrage? Oh no. We don't howl over here and we're not outraged. We have the world's most beautiful women, they speak English, extraordinarily cheap cold beer and the easiest place in the world to establish tax-free residence. Add a Harley-Davidson to that, and if this is where life ends, as far as I'm converned -- bring it on.
Not only that we've got the famed Manila 10's Rugby this w/e and Rory Underwood is here.
Come over and see us sometime. Qatar Airways is I think the best deal ex LHR right now. Got some great classic cars. You'll love it.
If you want some understanding female company, Growlette will arrange. Age not an issue.

The way to pick up a Hog is you use your butt. Grab the bars stand backwards then push with your ass. Once she's vertical you switch around and kick out the kick-stand. Easy peasy. But if you are a serious rider there will be bro's there to help. Don't ride on your own please.
Remember that Harleys have a motion detector for safety reasons so that they won't start if she goes off vertical. You have to switch the ign off then on again.
Nice thread. Always love to talk Harleys.

Interesting to learn I was never a serious rider; often I started off by myself, and anyway the others never kept up!
