Ray.. in some ways, the more difficult they are to operate...foot
clutch, jockey shift, etc.. the cooler they are. Also it's more
rewarding to me, for instance, shifting smoothly through on the Eldo,
with perhaps a little finesse required (probably a lot of finesse on
that Chief!).... than the effortless shifting on a late model Honda.

Bill, not silly at all. Truth be known, I'd best most of us started riding to begin with for the cool factor alone. I know I did. My father's mechanic at his commercial laundry was the Enforcer for a large outlaw m/c club in Cleveland back in the 60's. I thought he and his FLH were the coolest things I'd ever seen. Went out looking for an older Harley and found a 49 Indian Chief instead. Ahh...shucks, too bad, huh? What a great bike to learn to ride on!!! Spring loaded foot clutch, jockey shift. Coolness is important for sure. Ray pax sine tedio 73 Eldo "19" Bill Cohoon wrote:
