Well, it still applies to all bikers.. We are at the mercy of God's will....

Yeap, that's right. :cheeky: I like what you have mentioned. We all suffer the same fate when we ride and it rain heavily, all will got to drench.

I think I got the wrong size for my rain pants.... M size... I feel like I'm in the '60s.... Wear the pants damn high or else I can't open my legs or seat on the bike and that gives a big lobang for my boots and socks to get wet..

 

Sianz....

 

Always drenched whenever heavy rain...

 

Got lobang to get just the pants alone??

All as well, ends well.

Perhaps you can try not to pull ur rain pants too high just nice will do. If your rain coat is long enough it should cover you well. Unless you are too tall that why you got this prob. Try wearing the rain boots, ithink it should be able to cover ur exposure of your socks.

 

Me, i pull my pant to stomach area, and length long enough to cover me. Maybe i am too short to it. :faint:

Hmm...then i think you can try Chiap Lee or other shops to see if they got good raincoat for you liao. I got mine from LAB, cheap and good enough for me to dodge the rain. Maybe army market at beach road have better one. I last time got a suit of Goretex material raincoat, though abit thick for storage but not bad. Sori dude can't help much. :sorry:

 

Oh you mean with your army boots? then the booty cannot liao. Emm... i dun think there are any rain pants that can protect your boot from drenching.

Yes you may degenerate into a sagging bag of sh*t, too proud to give respect to other puny bikers but the harley fold will love and embrace you for it.

 

As for us seasoned HD bikers, we love those punks behind these forums to throw empty words at us...we just love to wallow in self damnation.

 

There is no salvation for the harley rider...only a lifetime of self-pride and belief that he or she is riding on one of the most respected bikes in the world.

We don't see many sportbike jokers who can last the distance...

 

Maybe them rides eventually crumble to dust and rust or their techno-crap company produces something in 9-12 months that blows what they currently own away to hell. They are obsolete in every sense of the word.

 

Again welcome to the harley fold, you may get occasional crap here, but on the road it's the drivers that give you the thumbs up, walkers that say "cool bike" and fellow HDers that wave back. The rest dun get nothing. Ignored lot they are, left to their own devices. Pity them here.

 

Ride well my friend

this is just that kinda rider that spoil the HD image...:nono:

Yes, heard of some of the HD stuffs made in China, did'nt know also got Thailand. thanks for the info Harley Hong. Actually, Thai can make many very beautiful handicrafts, i won't mind that if some of my HD part are from there. As long as the QC is good then it is fine with me.

Here's my PERSONAL opinion

 

Harley at most (to me) can ONLY be a show bike more less ultimate or far from it; its loud and vibrate too much and you can spend days polishing it then ride to leng kee road or orchard to show it off with fellow enthusiast , you stare at my harley and I stare at yours ...something like that.

 

As far as being "the" ultimate cruiser is concern...I wonder how the thread started even associate the word "Ultimate cruiser" with a show-bike class motorbike...perhaps just to clear his myth or get better understanding. it does not even have the slightest crusier quality you would expect to find in a good class cruiser. eg :-

 

Quiet a.ka. comfortable , Powerful, bulletproof engine, known reliability workhorse-class heritage, fuel efficient, pillion egornonics and comfort, luggage space etc etc

..and most Importantly still feel and ride like a bike not a tank?

 

What else but a Honda Pan European?

 

http://www.mundobike.net/fotos/segunda/ST%201300%20Pan%20European.jpg

 

Well, this is my choice.

 

I think people who rides St1100 and the likes are ultimate cruiser

Rider and bike together. :thumb:

Honda ..................and nothing else

Army boots have metal plates in front, rite?. That is why it is so hard at the head of the shoes right? Careful, in accident, this metal plate can CUT your toes off..... I always check that my shoes have no metal heads before riding....

I think he is refering to safety boots, which have a metal toe cap to prevent falling objects from crushing the toes.

 

This boot is not suitable for riding because the toe cap can fold over during an accident and slice off the toes :giddy:
