around here... you couldn't even find that bike in the parking lot.  You would have to try your key on four or five bikes till you knew which one of the plastic warriors was yours.

Try a golden retriever. Ours once nailed a mouse that was skirting the family room, and we called it an "intruder." Now if we call "Intruder!" he'll sprint into the room with ears up and teeth bared. We can even direct him with hand signals from teh porch to hunt down rabbits in the yard -- though they always get away outdoors, since he's working alone and wont leave the property...

  Only "standard" Harleys I have ever seen belongs to those who could care less about scooters to begin with. Too much money and too little pride.
  Who would feel right about putting around on an out of the box scooter?

cueball... you do realize that there are thousands of Harley's that are well over 60 years old that are still on the road?

I like your little 40 incher tho... Here we didn't like the one like yours with the dress but we did have a lot of pre unit trumpets and beezers...  they were kinda small and unreliable but they were fast enough and handled well...  I had maybe 4 trumpets and 1 beezer.

but... ride whatever you want and... since we are on the subject,,,

shoot wahtever you want..  I can't imagine what kind of gun you would own if you lived in a free country... probly be a hoot tho..

Hehe. If ya can`t use a gun on the rodents, how about one of them RC robots like they have on the robot wars competition?
 Might be a hoot to outfit one with a war ax and go after the invader. :)

Over here the "dress" is called a bathtub as it resembles an old tin bath turned upside down.

Personaly I'm not sure about the bathtub either but the bike is that old and original now that it would be daft to throw the tub away. Better to keep it historicaly accurate and as the factory designed it. The only mods are 12v electrics and better plugs coils, tyres  etc.  Other than that its genuine 1960. Quite nice to ride. The 500cc doesn't vibrate as much as the bigger models, and the Unit engine is easier to maintain.

"ride whatever you want " indeed. Its fun to argue about bikes, bit like pub debate down at our local watering hole. But any bike is better than no bike at the end of the day. Hows your BMW running?

As for the guns I'd own an 88mm anti tank gun I think. Bit big for rats though. Pretty fun to shoot I'm sure.

Speaking of rats our freindly local rat made a reappearance last night. Its been feasting on my wifes vegetable plot! The dog chased it and damn nearly caught it. So first I'll try a bit of wolferin and if that fails I'll get the cricket bat and lie in wait!
