Speaking of dogs, I was working the other night when I see a guy with a motorcycle roll past me. Not only does he have a side car, BUT he also has his dog sitting in it. I had to roll next to him, pass him, turn and pass him again to take it all in! It was one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time!

I too disagree with the helmet laws and the seatbelt laws. People need some way without protection from themselves. We are getting heavy into the non smoking laws around here too - where does it end?

And I do love the bikes. I hate the helmet laws. I find riding clears your head and helps me relieve stress. There is nothing like it.
i'm about half way up the arkansas oklahoma border. no helmet laws

since we are all on bikes at the moment. That was my Dad's bike, up until June or July. Sadly he had to sell it. Great bike though, I'd love to have one.

I wear a novelty helmet. They almost repealed the law last year but the bill was not voted on and never made it to the governor to sign.

Thanks.
It was a great bike, 2008 night rod, last year they were produced.
We sold it to someone up in Washington State, had less than 69 miles on it at the time of sale.
I miss that thing.
BUT
We still have the 09 E350, so all is a-ok!

Black and chrome. I don't think you can go wrong with that combination.

Not true.
A lot of the busses that go to the elementary schools here in omaha are equipped with seatbelts.
Come to think of it, even in high school i started seeing seat belts being but into the buses

California, I have yet to see the belts. Ironic since we are so concerned for saving us from everything.
