All I want to know is why do you have to park that British POS on a Buell banner. Does it leak that much? Or were you just being disrespectful on purpose

the restaurant will not let us bring in the bikes on the carpets....so, we had some old crate covers that we laid down. if you notice, when we did the second one, we turned it upside down, so the buell logo would not get dirty...

that British POS




I did not see one POS in those pictures.

Rex, thanks for sharing that with us again. I always enjoy seeing Jack's pictures. Hopefully I will see you both in the UP for the S2 Gathering next year.

So exactly which bikes are a POS. Rex you did a fine job. My first bike was a "74" 360CB Honda that I bought new. I was a fine machine until the truck pulled out in front of me 3 months after I bought it. I still think of it 8 bikes later. I doubt few Bikers have had a POS bike. Well, maybe a bike from HELL but almost all of us have had at least 1.

I take a bit of offense to the POS comment! I own two Norton's and think they are great bikes, Loads of torque and when set up properly they handle nice. Any bike could be a POS if not taken care of. In fact we are taking the Triumph out today, I hope that's not a POS too, LOL LOL. I hope you were just joking. Ride safe guy's.
