steveb leatherworks: the blather

before school

Some folks talk about “old school” – but what about the guys that wrote the damn book…i mean these rocks are truly…in every sense of the word, pre-school.

along these lines, I met an experienced rider some time back, he was a good guy, chatty and eager to tell a story. I think he said he has had this BMW for the past 380,000 miles, having bought it when it was a babe, it was only 2yrs old with 20,000 on it. This was back in the late 60’s. The motor has had three rebuilds. It is a family member. Having the FXR for 17+years, I can relate in a small way. Some machines just have a way of getting under your skin.
