This is my 1978 Triumph Bonneville, 750 cc. We took off the funky air filters and replaced them with the little tuna cans that Triumphs are supposed to have. This is known as the Mother Ship. It's a beast. My wife prefers the barcolounger back seat. It's a 1990 FLHTU. Great for staying in touch with another vehicle by CB, for putting on some tunes and doing some serious mileage... but a pain to wheel around town. Grandma on the other hand liked the comfort. This is her at 91 years of age and cruising. She is no stranger to motorcycles. The last image is her, on a boyfriends bike, in 1927. The other photo is me with mom. Genetics. That's my excuse. This is Twinkie, my first Harley. She's a 1989 FLSTC. The ride of choice for cruising around town. Comes with a free massage. In pre-twinkie days, she was red. These shots were on the road in 1990 during a trip to CA and a stopover at Sturgis for the 50th. Ghostriders at Wall Drug. This is the sporty. Good looking, but the drag bars are more a preference of my sons than of mine. The great flames are courtesy of Larry at Southside. Update 09/11/99 -- well, kiss her goodbye. Traded for some serious speed. See below. This is the new baby. If you are a fanatic, all I have to say is Hayabusa. If not, try this -- nine second quarters, 0-60 in 2.5 seconds, top speed of 200 mph. That Vette didn't have a chance and he admitted it when I finally let him catch up at the stop light. Good thing I'm still in the break-in period and taking it really easy!
