i used to hate harley davidsons. i thought looked stupid. especially those with the solo bicycle looking seats. worse still were those with the big buddy seats. old chopped harleys, ugh i thought. so corny and unsporty.
crotch rockets were the definition of cool. fast and furious.
then some year, month or day, it just switched. the uniqueness...the kind of simple quaint ugliness of harleys caught my eye. the cornier, uglier, and simpler, the better. now crotch rockets look like childrens toys to me. kind of cool still, but very un-unique. very dime a dozen.
so why the change? am i unique in this? no. current culture is on the same track. back in the day harleys were the derogatory hogs and crotch rockets were the new it. now its reversed. maybe im just a part of some collective unconscious. or maybe im just getting old and slower seems better. when were young we want to race to the end, as we get older we want it to slow down a bit.

Rather than a bicycle seat, I say they look like the old farmer's tractor seat.
