Harley Davidson has gone "full woke"

Grosventre357 · Tuesday at 11:39 PM

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any more insane.. are bikers ok with this?

Bluehair · 2024-07-24T05:14:52-0600

Bikers are accountants and engineers now. The days of outlaw chica’s in assless chaps are gone.

I saw 2 400 pounders on the back of one yesterday. No idea how the front wheel stayed on the ground.

On the end of my road there's a prefab owned by an older long hair, long beard, 350lb dude. Never talked to him, but he sits on the porch having a beer and smoke in the evenings when I come home, so I wave.

As it's hotter than Satans arsehole here, Sunday he was shirtless.

BANDITOS. In big block letters across his belly.

Told the boys that's one of those dudes, you just don't f with

Bikers… I think South Park covered this years ago

LMAO Hossy!

Did You Turn Around & Make Another Pass For A 2nd Look?

I Don't Know Alot About Biker Gangs!

But I Do Know The BANDITO'S Ain't Nobody To F'With!

We Were At Lake Powell One Year & We Had Our Tent Not Far From The NOYZ That Went On All Night!

Every 30 Minutes Throughout The Night They'd Fire One Of Their Bikes Up Just To Make Some NOYZ!

About 5:30-6:00 AM Things Would Start Mellowing Down!

I Decided To Do A Payback With My Pick-Up,No She's Not Quiet And It Will Rattle Some Teeth,I Don't Think They Liked It

We Decided To Move Camp!

Buy an Indian! pc

JPickett · 2024-07-24T09:46:15-0600

I know some banditos and Gypsy jokers back in the day. Bikers now are dentists. A woke HD company is no surprise

My closest neighbor in NV was/is a member. Former President of the Arizona chapter, retired and living his life. Tons of stories.

I worked for the Sundowners framing houses for 3 years, I was a lot younger back then... That was the early 90's about the end of the real biker era... Now it's all store-bought bikers...

Grosventre357 · 2024-07-24T16:36:52-0600

I’m shocked that Harley Davidson would engage in a “Woke” stunt like this. They will likely end this spectacle and discard their woke policies within a week. I grew up around a few Outlaw Bikers and I’ll just leave it at that. Maybe some bikers will buy an Indian?

grizzly · 2024-07-24T16:44:47-0600

Getting their panties in a wad over some culture war anti-"woke" crusade doesn't seem too "tough guy bandito" to me.

It seems the tough guy would say, "F' corporate politics BS, I'll ride what I want."

So. No Green tractors. No HD bikes. Oh, and no Bud Light. mtmuley

Have a not to be mentioned family member who was a Sundowner. He rode a BMW- no kidding...

Bultaco was the first motorcycle company to go woke and that was back when woke used to mean what time you got out of bed.

The bikes throttle was on the left, the clutch on the right and I forget what side the " shifter " was on. They'd be pretty popular in our 180 world today.

elkassassin · 2024-07-24T18:46:36-0600

Maybe No Chicken Scratch!

But There is:

Gays!

Queers!

He/She's!

Working At TSC!

What Else You Looking For?

My grandma said many times that grandpa bought the very first Harley Davidson sold in the county they lived in in Kansas. She said he chased coyotes out in the fields with it. He was born in the 1890's. Her mom told her to stay away from him, but she didn't listen.

I'm old enough but definitely not the oldest on this site!

I don't know when Bultaco started but I had a friend who had an enduro style one in the early 70's. Spaniard built.

The only thing that was neat about that bike he could ride it in deeper water without killing the motor than I could my Hodaka.
Like I said earlier everything else was basackwards.

Does owning an Hodaka make me older than knowing about Bultaco's ?

I suspect knowing about both of them puts us in pretty near the same age bracket!!

Holy crap. It’s like I found one of my old MX Action mags under the bed. I can’t remember the last time I pondered a Hodaka.

I still have a CR50 (baby Elsinore) hanging around . Broke my collar bone on it about 10 years ago.

I do wish I had my uncle’s Maico 501.

Thanks for the stroll down memory lane

CR50? You mean 500?....or did you break your collar bone tripping over a 50?

feddoc · 2024-07-25T08:25:49-0600

I started riding street bikes on a 1962 Panhead Duo Glide. I've had a bike ever since up until a few years ago. Never dumped a street bike.

Dirt bikes, well, every one has taken me for a tumble.
