Did you know that John Kerry rides a Ducati?

I saw a photo of Vladimir Putin riding a Harley. I wonder why he wasn't on a Ural?

And I bet that if AOC were to ride a motorcycle, it would be a BMW airhead.

And you said no politics!!

I love some of your old bikes Crusty! It would have made a nice museum if you could have kept them all!

Here's the fleet before I got tired of paying all the insurance and tags:





That was right before I bought the Ulysses. I sold the BMW to a good friend so I still had four bikes. I decided the Cagiva was a great bike but not comfortable to ride like the Uly so it went bye bye. Then another friend wanted the Blue Harley so I sold it to him. Big mistake. So the big Road Glide and the Uly keep me happy.

I just figured that one airhead to another; she could relate to it better than a Knucklehead.

In October of 1985, Harley released the Liberty Edition XLH1100 and I had to get one





Then, I got a Garbage Wagon in 1988





On my first trip to Australia, I had a 1983 Yamaha 900





For my second trip to Australia, I bought a rolling basket case 1979 XLCH, fixed it up and shipped it over:





I was back less than a week when my ankle got crushed at work. When I healed up, I had a 72 BMW R60/5:

Then I got my first Buell. A 1998 S3-T Thunderbolt:






Followed by a 2000 M2 Cyclone:





Then I got a 2006 Ulysses:





Then a 2008 XT:

Then, I just had to get a Sport Tourer, so I bought a Moto Guzzi Norge:





And, of course, I now have the Roadster:





I've owned several other bikes over the years, but I won't go into a complete list. These are the bikes that were used and registered for the street. My race bikes, parts bikes and basket case projects have been left out, though some of them were pretty memorable.

Very few of the pictures I posted were of my bikes, but they are of the same make and model and I have stories about all of them.

And not one of them has run for office.

1988 Kawasaki Ninja 600R - I think I put more miles on this bike than any other I've owned. I can't even count the number of times I rode it from San Diego to the Canadian border and back.


2003 Ducati 749S and 2004 Buell XB12R

That Fuller 2029 is pretty bad-ass. Zero electric bike frame and guts; 3D-printed titanium components; hand-hammered bodywork; polycarbonate wheels...cool stuff.

They've got some COOL stuff:

Greg,
That's a Brian fuller design, with multiple 3-D printed metal parts including; handlebars, foot pegs, and the hubs, it's also electric.
I quit drinking over two years ago, so the only thing I'm brewing is tea, but there are four new breweries in the county since you've been here. Get back here and sample some of those.

Zac, on the wheels, I'm not sure if they said, but being a glazier I'd have to guess they're plastic, probably poly-carbonate aka "Lexan".
