It's so they can determine their speed based on the angle of the tassels when the speedo inevitably dies.

Those are called get back whips and they're part of the larping kit that Harley sells that lets dentists dressed as pirates pretend that they're hells angels

So are you supposed to whip them into the spokes of guys wearing rival colors while you're motojousting on the freeway or

I think having something flailing in the wind, evokes a specific look. It's part of the image people are trying to project. They sell saddlebags, jackets and chaps with strips of tassels sawn onto them. You can see tassels on people's clothing back when main source of transport was a horse. There is a history to it, I just don't know what it is Just like a full leather suit with racing brands stamped on it, that you buy at the store. Instead of getting it for free along with your massive endorsement checks. All image, all the time

tranten posted:How are they bad? Ergos? No, egos seemed fine. In a straight line it felt like an overweight XB12SS, but thinner at the knees. The riding position was pretty "athletic". Once I put it in a turn, I got some hard Harley wobble. Maybe I had too high expectations but it really didn't turn as well as I'd hoped. Spend half as much on a XB and you get the same motor in a way better platform.

Question: did Davidson get upset that everybody just calls them Harleys?

Recently I started a little home business creating custom badges and parts, it started with replicating 100 year old ultra rare WW1 shoulder titles for a local historical society with my makerspace hat on: Since then I've been fielding enquiries from local bike builders and stuff. So uh I can do poo poo like this with keychain loops or actual mounting points for a tank, change the text, depth size to whatever, just saying. I can replicate old timey logos and stuff too, have some possible interest from the VW camper guys. ReelBigLizard fucked around with this message at 16:10 on Apr 4, 2016 |
