Deus' cafe'd nightster

if this doesn't make you weak at the knees, you should probably be riding a scooter...

I'm digging that bike a lot. It's a got a really nice look to it. Retroracer, you live/ride in DC or are you out in the NOVA/MD 'burbs? I haven't done much riding in the city proper, but I live here now and am looking to pick up a Thruxton in the very near future. Just wondering if you had any thoughts on life Thruxton'ing in & around the District. Sorry if this counts as hijacking the thread...

Probably the same as riding a Thruxton anywhere else, except its in DC.

Makes me weak in the stomach, but not the knees.

There just isn't much I like about overpriced, underpowered, ill-handling, "fair weather" bikes.

Best looking Harley I've seen!
Still wouldn't buy one tho ....

After all the ranting I've done about HDs in the past my conscience would never let me own one
