Ok Poll, which one is the ugly one?

I was on my way to buy a 2007 Electra Glide with 7500 miles nice looking bike for 12K I had borrowed 6k to pay in cash. In the same town a couple months before I looked at an 07 RSV, that guy wanted 8500, the RSV had 18K miles on it. Like I said I was on my way to buy the HD and this guy called back and said I will let you have the RSV for 6K if you can have the money here by 3 pm. I told him I would be there in 20 min. So how I ended up with my RSV I hate to say it, I want a HD, mainly because everyone else has one. Might sound vain, but since I was a kid I have always wanted a HD. I did own a Fat Boy, I could be wrong on that, while stationed in Alaska. it was a AMF bike and it leaked and was broken down more than it run. I was crashed and a friend of mine had it in his basement rebuilding it, well I helped him rebuild the bike. Once built he didn't like the size of the bike. This guy had a cool wife. Twice a year, she let him ride the bikes in the house, winter to put in the basement. Yes through the kitchen and living room down the stairs to the basement. In the spring, up the stairs through the living room, kitchen and out the back door to a car port. Let me tell you going down the stairs was scary but going up the stairs was worse.

Well here is another one of my most embarrasing moments
Larry1963 replied to Eck's topic in Embarrassing Moments
I was changing the oil on my Victory, well it comes with an (70 dollar) oil change kit. Well I drained it, changed the filter, and filled it up with all the quarts they gave me. When I checked the oil it was way to full, so I figure probably needs to be started, so I did, let it run, then checked it again, still over full, so I get on the Victory forum, much like this, and ask, and I was told that the last quart you put a little bit in at a time till just under the line on the dip stick. So I thought, I can just pull the drain plug a little bit and let a little out. I pulled that plug and I could not get it back in I had 5qt of oil on my arms, carport floor, and in the middle of trying to get the plug in and oil going everywhere, I get a text from my daughter, and I can read the first line of the text, it says. BOY WHY ARE MEN SO STUPID! I am thinking is she off in the distance watching me. I also know if I do not get this cleaned up before the wife comes home she is going to ask the same question but add, I married the chief idiot. I had to go to the dollar store and buy every cheap bag of kitty litter they had, the lady asked me what I was doing. I smelled like oil, and it on my shirt and I know still on my arms, I looked her in the eye and said I had a really big cat piss on my floor. -
I know I am stupid but how to we vote

I think for an engine sitting for a while, gas on the bad side and clogging one or two cans are ok, but probably a better additive for daily use. I do not use an additive, my goal is to burn a lot of gas through it

Living in the farm community we have a couple stations near us that have non-ethanol gas and it is 90 octane. you only get it in 90 octane. It is a little more expensive but my bike runs better, gets better gas and if it sits for a few days I do not have to worry about it gumming up like ethanol gas will. They make a gas additive for small engines running on ethanol gas. My motorcycle mechanic says seafoam is great but it eventually eats your seals and stuff. So he recommends this additive, it keeps the ethanol gas from jelling and he says it helps clean out the carbs.

Here is what is sad, now everyone life is changed. Of course Mr Byrd is dead, but his family has to deal with his death and loss, the dumbasses robbing the place will now spend 20 plus years behind bars, even the driver of the car, and for what, couple hundred dollars....

My other bike is a 01 Victory V92C and my one complaint with it is it does not have a gas gage, it does have a gas light. Also there is no fuel reserve, when light comes on you need gas in 30 miles or less. Well with my RSV I was happy to get a gas gage, a fuel reserve switch, and the gage will tell you how many miles you have run since running low on gas and switching on the reserve. The other day I was cruising down the back roads of South GA, when I started to sputter, I looked down and see that the gage said E 001, so without missing a beat I reached down and switched the tank to reserve and kept on the throttle. I know there was a gas station not 5 mile from me. Well I pulled in, filled 'The Baby" up with some good 90 ethanol free gas. Went in, got a Diet Mt. Dew, talked to the guy behind the counter about what, how great my Yamaha Venture was. Got on the bike, reset the odometer and off I went. I wasn't far from home so I pulled in, well I have been riding in the mornings when I can. Well Tuesday I had a meeting about 20 miles away. I got on the bike and noticed I had less than a quarter tank of gas, I thought ahh it be ok, even if I run out I have the reserve. Well I took the backway and the long way. I was about 4 miles from my meeting when I seen the odometer goto E, Gas light on bright, I reached down and turned my gas switch in the opposite direction and the bike died...... I thought maybe I didn't get it all the way over. So coasting down the road I am trying for the life of me to get it in reserve but when I switch it in the position that I think is normal mode the bike starts to run again. To my surprise I never switched the gas switch back to normal mode. I ran out of gas about 2 miles from where I need to be. On the plus side, there was a farmer and his son plowing a field right by the road. So when I pulled over they come over and asked if they could help me, I said sure like a dumbass I ran out of gas, farmer no problem walks to his truck and pulls out a big gas can, gives me about a gallon. He will not take any money, so he is looking at the bike and asking questions. I turn it on so he can hear how awesome it sounds. The father and son are looking the bike over and asking questions, then the farmer ask what is that gage for, he was pointing to the gas gage. Now mind you I am in coat and tie on my bike, well standing next to it. He looked at me, at the gage, then at his son, he then asked me, did you go to college, me: yes sir, farmer: do you have a degree, yes two BS and one Master degree. The farmer looks at his son, and says see I told you going to school doesn't make you smart. I guess he was thinking or at least I was, You just can't fix stupid....... I filled up and went the short way home so I didn't have to pass that farm again.

my other bike is a Victory V92C classic cruiser, you need good hand strength to pull in the clutch. To me my RSV is so easy

To all my Northern biker friends. When we are making fun of you for the three foot of snow and freezing cold out in the winter why we are riding, remember this. When it is your time of year to ride, we are in misery heat and humidity.
