Motorcycles

*sigh* I was talking with some people about motorcycles and I started to lament that I don't have a small bike to ride around on. Aside from the fact that my 900 doesn't run, I just don't LIKE it. It's never really felt right riding. It's just too big/heavy/powerful for me.

Just for curiousity, I browsed e-bay. *sigh*

If I had the money, I would SO be buying this bike!

It's just too cute/adorable and exactly the kind of bike I want.

Heh. On the other hand...

There's also this

Okay, not only is it a 1949 Indian, It's Steve McQueen's 1949 Indian. Jeezuz. I'd sprout an 8" dick and handlebar mustache if I just sat on that bike. That's gotta be the most manly machine on the face of the planet. I mean HOLY CRAP. Steve McQueen! And It's a 1949 Indian Arrow. A bike famous for breaking men's legs or throwing them over the handlebars when they try to kickstart it. That's one BAD ASS bike.

I think I'd rather have the cute little Honda. I suppose I should have a new job first tho.

Is there a patch where you could install an electric starter without utterly ruining the bike's structure? Did all bikes from that era work the same way?
