If anybody gives a poo poo, that weird seven-man bike those Mennonite girls are riding in the video last page back is called The Conference Bike.

Whoa gently caress sweet. I remember BMW batting around a shitload of concept drawings a year or two ago, all variants on "naked bike". Is that the outcome?

They may also do a streetfighter version of the S1000RR.

Why the gently caress are you revving your engine in neutral at 1AM you loving knob people are trying to sleep.

My clock is more a count of hours (days indeterminate) since the last time I boosted the battery than the actual time of day.

Do you figure out the difference and mentally adjust the time in your head every time you look? It seems like just changing the clock would be the easier way, but I have a special brand of lazy that actually requires me to do more work. I look at my clock and think "5:40?...okay so it's really 4:10"

I think if I leave for work around 12:56, that gets me there a bit before 6:30. I pass two billboards with clocks on the way though, so that's the main way I know how late I'm going to be.

Saw this nice pair today. If I'd had my bike beside them (a CL350 in the same color scheme as the new Bonnie there) we'd have all three -- the original, the Japanese knockoff, and the modern remake.

No, but it's there pretty much every day. Lots of KLRs around here actually -- often there are two or three. Today there was even one of the new design, which I'd never seen in person before. Not as distinctive as the old one.



e: the comments on that GIF are about 30% "WHY ISN'T HE WEARING A HELMET??", which is valid, and 70% "OMG CHILDREN AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE ON MOTORCYCLES!!" Granted I don't think I've ever seen a kid who simultaneously has a pacifier and a motorcycle like this one, but I've seen plenty of 6-year-olds on 50cc dirt bikes. At the store on the weekend there was an adorable ~8 year old girl in a full leather racing suit looking at new helmets with her dad. Not every motorcyclist is a reckless hooligan, people :(

Went to Daytona to meet up with a couple of friends and among the chaff (meaning chromosexuals and assless chaps) were these gems.

Met a pair of guys who collect and restore the Aeromacchi (Harley) Sprints. Here are a 64 and a 67

If it's the one I'm thinking of it's a video by Wink 1100 saying "Your wheelies is ga'bage!" - saw it on youtube ages ago but now the video has been made private. Haven't been able to find another copy unfortunately.
