Show us Your ..... Bikes.

Interestingly, when I was 16 or 17 I went to England with my mom and sisters, my mom couldn't grasp driving on the other side. I hadn't really been driving long enough to have any ingrained habits, I had no problem, so I got to do all the driving.
Funny, my only time driving (riding) on the left is when I was 15. We went to Burmuda and rented mopeds. I was tall and told them I was 16.
 
It is probably senility sitting in since I last posted here, but this is my new bike. It is a 1969 Harley Davidson Flathead 45 Servi-Car. It is an X Houston Texas Police Unit with 26K on the clock. It is slower than I was in 9th grade algebra, handles like a one handled wheelbarrow full of rocks, and is the Baby Huey in my small collection of vintage bikes. It runs great, has perfect compression, and once you get used to foot clutch and tank shift is a hoot to drive, added bonus, the siren is still in place. Honestly it is the most fun I have had with a motorcycle in quite a while. I have always wanted one but did not buy one 20 years back when they were selling in Wallnecks Cycle Trader for 500 bucks each, nope I waited until they became rare, collectible, and hard to find, so I could pay more......
