Is that not just a factory option?

I'd ride it...but that horrible bike in front is putting me off a bit.

I think I'd quite like a Harley one day, not that one tho'.

The only time I rode one was when I was too young to appreciate it for what it was, I was all about sports bikes back then and the Night Train or whatever it was I had a go one was rubbish at going fast.

I don't think I'll ever be old enough for a Hardly. Luck will get you home?

Nice T-shirt.

I've ridden two so far. I'd have another go on one, but only really for amusement purposes.

It's very 1976, I haven't seen a gold metal flake bike in a very long time, and would be quite happy not to have seen this, but weirdly there's also something about it I like, it's tasteless enough to annoy the Harley crowd.

You were doing so well until the second comma.

It's growing on me, if it had some rear shocks and a flat track seat I'd say it was nice.

The rear brake pedal is tolerable.
