Whatever. I been toying with the idea of getting a bike and selling off my fullsize truck. I ride the c70(When i can) At least 100miles a day when its out.
I live on the out skirts of lansing. I ride the thing every where. I was on it for 8hrs one day just checking shit out. It's an awesome little city cruiser and has enough guts to get out of most peoples way till about 45mph
I hate weekend warriors. The fools with Harley jackets and other random bits of tasteless shit. I pack my woolrich parka and thats all i need. The leg shields do a good job for the most part in the rain. What really gets me is the lack of respect i get on the bike.. Yeah, its a small displacment bike, Its old as hell and looks it BUT why cant people see it has a place. The thing is history on wheels. I drove a fiat 500 that my dads friend owns last weekend. He restores Fiats and and Alfas. My dad and him Both had fiat 124 coupes back in the day and this dude loved my little honda. I also liked his 47 Jag type 4 And the 59 fiat multipla we went cruising in.
That was a cool day. Chasing the Multipla down in the new 500 was sweet. BUT! This dude knew about matchless. My dad had an old matchless. My uncle had a nortan 750 comando. I take pride in the history of cars and bikes. It's where i started.
Where are all the people that respect the heritage of bikes at. I stopped waving at bikers or whatever lately cause i dont get a wave back. Just because im riding this cool little honda? WTF is wrong with these yuppy fucks.
It's sad..
