This article, although kewl, says somethings I don't agree with. For instance referring to Royal Enfield as a British bike? How about stating that even Triumph is not made in England but oversees, as opposed to Royal Enfield?!?! But wait, when was even one screw made in England for Royal...
Other than you?
I know some people who will never let anyone ride their bike and would never ask to ride yours. I have other friends who would let pretty much anyone ride their bike without a second thought.
Me? If I trust you enough to ride with you...I trust you on my bike. I pretty much...

Hey all, I sometimes have a problem downshifting when I have been cruising at highway speeds for quite a while...such as commuting to work in the morning....such as THIS morning . It has happened to me a few times in the past. I know the oil is fine as there is only about 3K miles on it. I am...
I ordered this bike lift from the MAC tool guy... it looks like it would be easy to use and more importantly safe to use on the Rocket. It appears to be somewhat open underneath it and that should help with oil changes, but I really wanted something that will get the wheels off of the ground so...
American Motorcyclist Magazine carried an article in their Nov. edition entitled “82 ways to tell if your are a hard core motorcycle rider”. Here are a few I can relate to. The choices in bold type can apply to collector car enthusiasts as well.
The best of the 82 are included here.1. Your...
Did anyone see the bolt on kings of bike buidling, the Orange County Chopper guys, on the Discovery Channel last night. They were vacationing in England and toured the Triumph plant. Mikey really looked cool on a new Rocket and the old man looked like a monkey riding a football on a Bonneville...
Spent the weekend in Ocean City for the final days of bike week.
Only saw two other rockets from the opposing lane with no chance to catch up after a long red light. Just wondering if anyone else in this forum might have been there. The local horse track was the venue for all the bike and...
Memorable MC - 1928 Rudge Four
September 15th Motorcycle MC
Look at British products of the late 1960s and anyone with a modicum of pride would squirm as history's searchlight picks out such truly awful motorcycles as the James Sports Captain or the Greeves Sportsman. Click link at top to...

I have had my R3C for about three weeks now. I also have a Harley Dyna Wide Glide, which I dearly love (I know, I will catch all kinds of flack for saying that, but facts are facts). Anyway, after three weeks of riding only the R3C, I had an occasion to ride the Harley this weekend. I was amazed...
