IMHO, that Bitch was one kidney-poundin', grease-slingin' "old school" rat long before the chopper 'zines and tattoo kids discovered the term! Let's see how many of them still riding rigid 30 years down the line, eh?
And Swimmer, I'm with you. I've missed every bike I ever sold (hell, I miss some I only worked on!), but The Bitch is
most special because it's the first motorcycle I ever owned. We have a lot of miles and memories together. Letting it go would be like amputating some vital appendage - not sure which, but a vital one. That's why I've been working so hard to get back on it.
The clutch started slipping during my test-ride yesterday. If I'm up to working in that chilly garage today, I'm gonna bust open the primary and investigate. I'll also pull the buddy saddle, and see if I can get
any adjustment on that punked-out pogo-stick. Then when the shop opens tomorrow I'll swing by and see about rounding up a tractor seat. The Bitch ain't going down without a fight!
