I like your two older bikes, CBXer55. Very cool.

Great artwork, flapjax.


If I may, I'll post up some pics here of my bikes. All H.D.'s but that doesn't mean I don't like some other bikes.
They are a 78 Shovelhead, 92 Heritage Classic and an 03 VROD.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('ReverseEngineer', 'J')ust though I would let everybody know, FlapJax and I are collaborating on a new comic strip for the group. The first comic is written and FlapJax will try to get it drawn for publication Sunday if he has time.

The comic strip is called "The Doomstead Diner".

So this is what happens when oil prices collapse and peakoil is postponed a few years.

Cool

Thanks, much appreciated.

That old Shovel is my favourite even though I don't put many miles on it compared to the VROD.
Not nearly as comfortable or as fast, haaha, but it looks cool.
I did many of the mods myself and it looks nothing like how they came out of the factory in 78.
The only thing stock is the frame, crankcase and transmission. Everything else has been swapped out or modified.

Matthew Simmons has gone on the record stating that we will have another major run up of oil prices within 9 months from now. If the true situation is anything like what he suggests then this would be like that moment in the movie Titanic when the ship cracked in two and the stern fell back to horizontal. A momentary illusion that things are back to normal. Imagine, if you will, how people would react if the financial and economic problems just kept getting worse and suddenly oil goes up to $200/bbl. People would freak out.

Not to get into an argument but he also said we would see $300/bbl by now.

I think he needs to work on his timing.

The 03 VROD. A thing of beauty. If we would stop making toys like this maybe it would be easier to not be consumer slaves. Nice!

I used to ride a Yamaha enduro in Guatemala. I can't really find anything like that any more. They all seem to be overpowered beasts. We need to get back to riding motorcycles like they do in the the former third world.

You can make a car that gets 100 mpg out of a scooter, as a friend of mine did:

We followed him up and down Mt. Washington.

He was moving so fast we could barely keep up!

Dmitry Orlov said this is why he won't ever say when the collapse will come. It's no fun predicting things then getting the timing off. :lol: :roll:

What the hell? I can't stand Nickleback!


Chad K. lives in a big house on an acreage just outside of my town.
A friend, who is a concrete contracter has done work on his place, said it's pretty nice as expected.

btw, Chad got an impaired driving charge in his Lamborghini here last yr. Bwahhaaa, dumb ass.

I've ridden a Hayabusa and a GSXR750.
Fast of course but fun for about only 10 minutes or until you lose your license whichever comes first.
I can't get comfortable on supersport bikes. A little too compact and hunched over for me. To each their own.
