Really, why should all the ruggedly handsome real men and amazingly courageous women here have to put up with the pretenders and their shorter less adequate versions of an American Adventure Sport bike? They are going for a "tour", well lahdeedah. I think I even saw an XB12XT parked outside of a Starbucks. The rider was probably inside talking all about his special hard luggage. Probably talks with that Hahvahd accent, you know the one. They're just too elitist and hoydeetoydee with all their touring and worldliness. Probably afraid to ride over a curb. What say you? | ||

Lol. I don't resemble that statement! | ||

Oh this is so going to require pictures!! We will now need pictures of a Uly in front of some hi-faluting places, can you say Valet parking, tuxedos a must!  | ||

My Uly is extra short, and it will be in Hahvahd once I get it fixed, I will have to take some photos then. I just need to get a tux under my 1 piece stitch  Also, many good things come from Harvard   | ||

Ha! I did ride over a curb just the other day. I got caught in a weird detour that led to a dead-end barricade at a five-corner intersection. Since I couldn't figure out where the heck I was supposed to go, I just hopped up on the sidewalk, rode across a median island, and ended up on the other side of the construction zone. Sometimes it's hard when you just want to get home, but it's a lot easier on an XT than in a minivan. | ||

While Terri and I were in Indianapolis for the MotoGP, we stayed at the Crown Plaza Hotel ($49.00/night on Hotwire). We parked in the Valet Parking area. We live less than an hour away from Harvard University. We like our Hepco & Becker hard bags. Is that freakin' Hoity Toity enough for you? | ||

Now now Blake - don't be cruel to the little people. | ||

Hmmmm ... my R1200GS Adventure and my HP2 enduro make the Uly look like midgets...   | ||

My Uly Journeymen bags held 23 bottles of wine + opener, Various meat and cheeses and Crackers, wife's change of clothing and accessories (she standing behind me right now), as well the typical tools and what not. Sorry no pics of the winery tours Very snobby p | ||

Since I moved to Tennessee ten years ago, I think I moved away from most of such snobbyness and arrogance. Nothing funnier than a semi toothless hillbilly being arrogant though!  A couple of months ago I did have some gray pupon on my Uly. It was not the uppitty mustard brand though. I've been known to share a tug on a jar, but that ain't wine either!  Daymm, ah guess by bein' here in Tennessee ah have been disqualified from my snobby ranking. I may have to move back to Tampa to get back in line.....no wait make that St Petersburg.....better yet Clearwater.....no Venice Beach, yes that should do. I can get the yacht polished down at the club while I ride the Uly to one of the golf courses year 'round.  | ||

My wife and I rode to Whole Foods in Leawood while our IMac was being restored to proper function at the Apple store's Smart Bar. We used the extra time to have a wild salmon fillet wrapped in ice, so that it would survive the ride home. Safe in its box, lashed to the rear top-rack, the IMac happily rode home with us and was a great help in finding an elegant recipe for the salmon. | ||

Froggy, Touché my good mahn, touché. "Is that freakin' Hoity Toity enough for you?" It's okay I guess. After all, there needs to be some counterbalance to your royal crustiness. ![: ]](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/proud.gif) | ||

I still say... Down with the XTs! | ||
| Itileman |
They get back up.  | ||

Waaaaiiiit a minute. Why, those are soft bags! No Starbucks for YOU! | ||
| Cityxslicker |
If you see my bike clean and in front of a Starbucks, you KNOW its been STOLEN. I earned that dirt, road rash, battle scars and missing part ding. Keep your single tall machioato with extra whip; I am on the shorter, meaner, leaner 9  g-d 29 inch inseam  | ||
| Crusty |
Itileman; that's a sad sight. | ||

Kiss my tookus, Blake! | ||

Sometimes I keep a tie in my hard bags just in case I need to get gussied up. | ||

Blake - what event prompted your searing diatribe? From what dark recesses of your libido did this outburst emanate? Do tell... | ||

I ride my Ulysses to one of the top Ivy League Universities . . . just like Froggy's daughter. That do it? Did I spell "League" corect? | ||
| Tginnh |
Froggy's daughter? If Froggy's b-day on his profile is correct, then the math doesn't work. | ||
| Froggy |
Indeed the math doesn't work, she is actually 9 days older than me | ||

Always remember to remove the Cramp Buster before you go off the tarvy. Don't ask me how I know. Camp coffee rules. | ||

Us folks in the "Fly Over" states cannot get involved in this discussion. |
