The hydrogen filling station in my neighborhood has been running safe and trouble free for over eight years now.

Smug.

I know! I wonder if a true Jalop really ever has a “sad” breakdown story. In over 40 years of Jalop life all those breakdowns resulted in adventure and triumph. If I don’t survive the event it may be sad for somebody, perhaps, but I am here to tell of close calls, perseverance and clever improvisation. All the rewards…

In many cases the goal is short term profit such as when a hostile takeover raids a company, sells it’s production infrastructure, and hollows out the brand by outsourcing production to competitors.On the other hand a company that takes a position in an expanding market with an integrated production infrastructure can…

Yeah, my experience was 30+ years ago but that bike was less capable than my 10 year older R75/5.

I had a R80GS and was somewhat disappointed by it’s performance. It had less HP and torque than my R75/5. It was a pretty thing but the handling was compromised on road or dirt and power to weight was low. The one thing it did well was power out of the hole. With all that weight it would hook up well and exploit all…

For some Mary from across the street will always be more appealing than the most fabulous drag queen. Of course everyone will state at the freak but it’s a question​of who you want to wake up to each morning.

Maybe that’s it. Those RWB cars are for guys who “do” themselves?

Excellent article.

If there’s a cop there it’s obviously too populated to break 100. I live in a predominantly rural area and frequently” do the ton” but only briefly and on empty roads. A couple times each year I make the 12 hour run to some sweet isolated highways in the great basin where I can stretch out to 120 to 140 for extended…

I had a big buck like this one feint left on the left shoulder and then pivot back across the road. I had covered the brakes scrubbing speed but when he headed away I had relaxed only to have him come straight at me with his rack lowered. At that point all I could do was pin it in an effort to get by him. His horns…

You’re so right, I sold my 4 door F350 long bed and got a 3/4 ton Ram extended cab and it’s so much more maneuverable and easier to park.

Or perhaps Trump could take a tip from Reagan’s Whitehouse Basement Operation and put that coke on the street to finance his wall? Those were heady days!

God bless them!

That’s horrifying. Considering that Eric Buell’s last improvement for the blast was this

Unlike autos,motorcycles are frequently 2nd or 3rd vehicles purchased on impulse and treasured for what they represent as opposed to what they do. Throughout my life I’ve been able to acquire little used examples of the precise bike I desire 3 or 4 years later at less than half price.

I found that article too but it makes no reference to Harley supporting the tariff. I did find this one which clearly lays out HD’s general opposition to tariff increases in general.

Hey! We’re really off into the weeds now... I love it, that’s a thought provoking comment. Bikes for Beef? News to me. I wouldn’t be too suprised if HD did embrace protectionism seeing as how Reagan’s tariff in the ‘80s was credited with saving the Motor Company at one point but a quick web search to educate myself…

Kudos for having a water tank to test the unit!

Not to mention that battery listing significantly to Port. One has to imagine that whatever weight penalty the new engine imposes is being mitigated on every right turn when battery acid sloshes out and lightens the front end a little more.
