Just to mention: I don’t think he did this because he’s a veteran... Someone probably elevated that as a reason for being a good story to follow through on.

I get that. The original post wasn’t supposed to be taken seriously...it was the “I thought you were American, in American, built by Americans, in America” post. I also think that the hometown dealer wanted to do something for the veteran, not Kawasaki as a company. It’s always the “American” companies that claim…

Guy Martin has also volunteered to donate his balls to science, as scientists need to identify and add the element to the Periodic Table of Elements once it has been identified through various techniques.

...and then just like the govt with imminent domain proceeded to take the motorcycle from the guy...claiming to be a benefit for all..

Was he in the Japanese Defense Forces, he was riding a Suzuki.....

The way the supply chains have been established, it is virtually impossible to have anything 100% made in a single country. Even Japanese bikes have things that are not made in Japan,even small pulleys that are part of assemblies are probably sources from outside of the supply company.

a guy who doesn’t get thrills from the TT anymore... what’s next? He’s going to attempt to ride his bike from Earth to the Sun, withstanding gravitational pull....he’ll succeed...as usual...

Just to cover this:

I had to put HD there by default, I’m more of a fan of Victory and Indian.

another motorcycle....that’s worth money...in the resale market...

you’re talking about HD right, because the other two brands are pretty decent..

That’s probably what he’s going for as an individual, but these companies could have jumped at the chance for free publicity..even if he doesn’t like their bikes. I for once as a veteran stay out of the limelight...after all...it’s just a job like every other.

You’d think “hey this guy is a US Veteran...he deserves a brand new American motorcycle”- one of three US companies. Missed opportunity HD, Victory, Indian...

Ahhh.... Volkswagens ...am I rite?

You seriously need to start posting vids of you hooning these bikes. If I can’t own everything I want, I need to live vicariously through you somehow

Harley Davidson? You mean a Porsche? That’s no HD

Kodi for android/pc/apple... google is your friend.

I’m happy to see that the Italians are still making the ML.

Haven’t you heard “He’s a great guy, terrific guy, knows everything, endorses people”

I’m 33/34 years old.. I started riding 2 yrs ago (when we bought a house w a garage) & now I want to ride Everything! Let me know if you need help..
