OK everyone, sorry to post this here, but I couldn't help it, I'm just picking myself up off the floor after laughing so hard.

Story behind this link, was at the Javits center in NYC this weekend for the bike show. I don't own a bike, but have wanted one for quite a while. Well, I had just decided on a victory vegas model, pretty sweet bike, though I may want to stick to the triumph american. (trouble is, I figure I'm playing a little too big a gamble with 2 motorized means of transport built in england, bound to both be down at the same time)

Anyway, then I come across this link, now I'm thinking twice.

Great story. A co-worker e-mailed me the same link a few weeks ago. I started to wonder how true it really is.
Regardless, it's really funny.

Funny

And go with the Victory! As a matter of fact...I have one for sale . First edition KYSO blue, #1061 , new transmission, torque compensator ( had both updated), belt, tune up ( filter, plugs, oil). $4000 in accessories and LOTS of extras. Nostalgic looking with lace wheels and wide whites.

We're having so much fun with the mini that we've become disinterested in riding for a while.

I know that this is a shameless use of a forum to plug the sale of our bike...but if anyone is interested ( and what a great price!) ping me at riceriver254@hotmail.com
for picture links and details.

Meanwhile, we've racked up about 13,000 on our Mini ( Can't wait for April Club) and it's more fun than a barrel of ...err...squirrels
