No doubt.
I like the trials hardtail Harley as well. These guys would chew me up, spit me out, and laugh at the trembling mess in the dirt. |

They still make that same bike for only $25,000. Really though, Harleys were bad ass in their day, but everything else got better and left them behind.
I do love the old photo though! I have posters of old cafe racers and stuff all over the place. |

It was more of an "inspirational" thing to say. But... if they keep makin' the bikes better, they will keep jumpin' higher and pushin' the limits even further. Triple & quad backflips are coming.

This is going to be my new riding partner in a month or so, a buddy is getting his "48" Harley going that his Grandfather left him 25 yrs. ago. The Army video reminds me of some old videos of his grandfather racing this Harley in the annual Turkey run with the Peoria Motorcycle Club.
