Harley have rejigged their range for 2018, folding the Dyna and Softail lines into one.

I'm not normally a big fan of the Motor Co., but I do like the Fat Bob, which is described as being designed to scare zombies!

[Jett129]

Funny,I'm a big fan of the Motor Co.,and I hate what they did with that bike. Don't care who its designed to scare.

[Giles]

Yes, whoever came up with the line - "designed to scare zombies" - was trying a little too hard…..All it did was make me wet my knickers, and not through fear....

[Jett129]

They're trying,desperately,hard to appeal to younger people. As their current, aging,consumer base is rapidly diminishing.

I'm looking into getting a 'Winter hack' so the 9T doesn't get trashed though the winter months.

The Honda VFR (pre vtec) has been recommended by a mate at work.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I don't want to spend a fortune either… £2k max.

Came across this today. I never knew Porsche made a motorcycle.

Does it have to be fast? Suzuki now makes the VanVan with a 200cc engine. I personally think would make a great winter bike. I had the 125 as my first ever bike and it was insanely fun to ride. Won't be to everyone's tastes though.

I'll get one one day and treat it as a project… Love to have it end up like this!

[Graeme]

@Sam I'll match your Van Van, and raise you a Grom! (MSX125 to the Brits.)

[bryaneidins70]

@Sam, that looks bloody cool. I'll take a look into them.

@Graeme:

The Indian Scout is stock, as far as I know. It's a good looking bike, but rather small, so @Jordonf9 might need to look elsewhere if he's as lanky as @Sam and I are.

Just seen the Ashley Watson Eversholt jacket over at Silodrome.

It's a waxed canvas jacket with a Dyneema lining to provide abrasion resistance; a waterproof and breathable drop liner to keep you dry; and a set of D3O armour. It's also available in navy. Could be good for riding around town.

We've got these in stock. www.foundrymotorcycleshop.co.uk

@Giles:

Thanks giles it's a lovely bike a bit umm shall we say different to rude the the road king ,with ummm drum brakes stopping is …...slightly nerve racking at times 

[Giles]

[Seul]

Great to see you again, and those pics are crazy cool…

[Graeme]

@harley dave that old school Electra Glide is lovely, but I can understand why you're nervous about the brakes.

I picked up a set of Rizoma Leggera indicators for the Thruxton when I was in the UK. They're tiny, and the rear units also have brake and rear light functions. Plus they have a CE rating, which means they're street legal. Useful when there are over enthusiastic law enforcement officials in these parts.

[harley dave]

The glide has brakes but it's….is it going to stop .......please stop...........please please stop.....and breath and relax ....

[harley dave]

You'd be better off throwing an anchor out if you want to.stop
