Another of my great hobbies except the dagger collecting and cigar smoking is to ride my Harley. This is my fourth one, a Dyna Street Bob -06. Once you owned a Harley, you dont want to ride anything else !!! This is the ultimate bike. I am sure we have some bikers among the GDC members, please show me your bikes !! Have a nice ride, Hakan.

Hakan your bike is so cool. I cut a photo of one of them out of a magazine about a year ago and want one so bad but I haven't been on a bike in almost twenty years! JohnJ

Gaspare, What kind of bike is yours exactly? I love it, it looks like the kind of bike you can just jump on and ride around town no problem, no hassle. Just looks really comfortable and unintimidating. JohnJ

Its a 1942 WLA,,a U.S. Army bike.. Its been vintage raced a few years and been blown up a few times so theres not much left of the Army parts! .. Front end is early disc model Sportster. It has many other non standard parts on it to be able to keep up with the faster Triumphs and Nortons an now to be street legal.. Its comfortable,,and fun to ride,,foot clutch,,hand shift keeps you busy!..,G.

I ride a 2002 Road King with Rhinehart 'true dual' exhausts. Nothing like running in the mountains of Tennessee with a loud rumble. I'll post a pic or two later today. Mark

Pic of my 03 Sportster...I bought it in 05...had 930km on the clock! I've since spent some $$$ to add a few things and do some mods to it....next step is a conversion to 1250CC..some new heads...and I should have me a 110+HP honey.
The pic is when I picked it up....looks so much different now...Unfortunately its to cold to drag it out from its winter slumber to take a "now" pic...

Shot of my 2001 FLHT on the side of the road coming home from Laughlin in 2004 after my buddy's shifter arm fell off and skidded across the freeway.

Bikes are great fun! In another life i was a Triumph and Norton factory technician, as well as a Harley-Davidson service mechanic..this is a little bomb i built years ago..11:1 HCP, one piece crank, titanium rods, 6 speed box,all aircraft grade fasteners ..good for an honest 88 horsepower! pretty good for a brit bike!
I am also one of the few men left on earth who can actually put together a Triumph twin and not have the pushrod tubes leak!!

Harry Firth motors on the Danforth was one of the old school Norton Matchless AJS dealers..he was on the board of directors and managed to buy the first 30 production Norton commandos ever built.As every part at the time was going into building up bikes, he immediately had them break 15 of them down into component parts and they shipped the lot to Canada.
the body work is also off the 6th commando ever built, which was silver and red btw!..
