dirt dame 561 Posted March 5, 2008 I'll bet there were plenty of adventures to be had in those days. I just wouldn't want to be having them on those bikes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chief Gunner 2 Posted March 6, 2008 I doubt there was much "Off Limits" riding areas back in 1915, but it looks like "Smokey" could have dealt with it anyway :scratch_one-s_head: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 561 Posted March 6, 2008 No need for a siren to pull you over; you'll be laughing so hard at his hat, you'll have to pull over and stop or you'll crash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PastaPilot 17 Posted March 6, 2008 Only mod=add knobbies I think I like the original high-traction tires. Add a dozen or so lengths of chain around the tire through the spokes and weld together on the other end. Hold throttle open and enjoy. :scratch_one-s_head: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
