    Hell yeah man. Hook me up with a 400cc parallel twin wheelchair and stick some extra wide tires on that bad boy. I'll put carbide tipped snow spikes on the two little wheels in the front just so people know I coming and where I went.



    Then attach some rockets on the back and do it old' school Chinese style.

    snortin rote about how those clubs would ride around from cafe to cafe, well there is a scooter club up in Boise ID. called scooterpalooza and that is a web site as well , and getting pretty pop'y, and that is what they all do on the weekends .
    get together for cafe round ups,

    reminded me of the late 60's early 70's when we would cruise the muscle car routes on the weekend
    so long and good by

    No problem Jim , that's what I live for , to help you , LOL !!!
    There is a great show about Harleys on the history Channel once in awhile , but it has some great live clips of the Mods and Rockers on it too , and shows some of the old school Triumphs and Nortons and Beazers ripping up the streets of London running the old Cafe' course from Cafe' to Cafe' , great footage if you ever happen to catch it , its worth a see .

    Later , the Helpfull Snortin maniac

    Jim , now that I rack my brain I am quite sure the show is called the History of the Motorcyle .
    You can search the History channel website and actualy get the show on DVD , it is well worth it if you actualy want some REAL history of bikes and the people too .
    Just thought you might like to know that .

    I appreciate that, that will help out a lot, now I know what to look for on there :) I may have to look for that dvd too.

    I found these three, http://shop.history.com/?v=history_s...on_motorcycles I don't think those are what you are referring too, but I will keep looking.
