Well, I hate v-twins, so I would never buy one of their bikes, but I believe that they could expand on what little bit of creativity they have and do something different with that base motor of theirs.  Here’s what I would do;

First, turn the engine 90*.  Why does it have to be belt drive?  Turn the engine and put in a shaft!!  Plus, put two v-twins together, making it a v-four!!  (maybe that would smooth it out a little!)

Second, every single cycle they make has a fuel tank on top, plus, almost every tank they use looks the same!!  Make the fuel tank just part of a “thick” frame.  If it’s fuel injected, there’s a fuel pump so you don’t need gravity to feed the engine. 

Third, I’ve seen wheels that have large axels.  Axels that are almost the diameter of the wheel, making a large “hole” in the middle.  Incorporate that into one of their bikes.

Fourth, hide the cables and wires!!  If possible, hide everything that sticks out (signal lights, handle bars, clutch levers…..) figure out a way to hide ‘em!

Fifth, why not make the bike “pivot” in the center?  Use your foot pegs as “handle” bars?  Of course you’ll need some way to pull in a clutch, or break.  But figure that out!!

sixth, and final, nothing they make has a windshield.  Why? 

The show gets old, you always hear Paul sr. crabbing about JR.  mikey is the shows angel, gets away with being a goofball and not needing to pull his weight ever.

As a father who is in business with my Son, i find this new story line despicable! If the producers and writers think this Father and Son battle is going to draw ratings the are sadly wrong!! It just shows the Morals of this Country and Media is deteriorating American values  Undecided Pathetic, It shows what desperation will due for the almighty Dollar.

Agreed.  What kind of A-hole wants their son to fail, and revels in his problems?  I understand the conflict.  It happens.  Even bad feelings. But to actively hope and enjoy his problems just floors me.  Maybe it is a put on?  I hope so.

I think Sr. is an ......!   Jr. is not perfect by any means, but he does not seem to have the hatred his father has.  I pray, for their sakes, it is a put on.  However, even from the beginning years ago, they showed that Sr. had driven away his other offspring.

Sad, for any family.

Do we all really think the "drama" on the show is real? or made up for ratings, after all its a "reality" show. Which is like EVERYTHING Obama says, a complete 180 of the truth.

Those clowns wouldn't know how to fabricate anything like what you suggest.  They just buy the parts from someone else and assemble it.  Hoser
