Well...that certainly totally ruins what otherwise was one of H-Ds better looking bikes. VRODS tend to drop into the turn at low speeds anyway I would think that would feel even worse with Apes. :shocked:

I've tried and tried to like that, or find the utility in it, or something, but I can't, and have concluded that it's butt-ugly and probably non-functional.   And that's OK.

I saw either this Guzzi, or one almost identical to it, at a rally in the mid 90s, when I was a kid. Pretty sure theres still a photo of it in the box of family vacation pics from back then.

That's considered "Aloha" wear out in Hawaii.  Dress slacks & dress shoes added in and that would be downtown Honolulu business attire.  Tucked in or left out is okay.  Hey!......it still has a collar.  :grin:

Sounds like Bermuda ... it's interesting to see the professional wear there, and there's a LOT of it since many multinational financial and insurance companies have their headquarters there.

A jacket or blazer, nice silk tie, a low-key shirt - and a pair of linen shorts, often in colors as garish as you can dye them.   Guys so Scandinavian-pale that you can almost see through them, to guys that are ebony black, the shorts are always the common denominator ...

I saw a bike like that at the MotoGP in Indianapolis some years ago.  This one looks a bit better put together.  The chain drive on the Indy bike was particularly glaring.
