The ramblings of oz
Once upon a time in a place far far away
I looked down and found that …I could see the bottom of the glass.
"Another beer me dear" said Carl, god I need to get off this roundabout.
"Why the hell not" says I just another night at jak and Carls, then we go on
About bikes, "yes but why a Harley? "I ask him," you have a lot of bikes and
The ability to buy what the hell you want WHY the Harley"? "It’s a Harley thing" he said.
Jees it’s like trying to pull the barmaid under the nose of your girlfriend.
"You will have to have a go on mine" he said,
Never did get that go.
Then as you all know Dave and moi went over to the good old U.S.of A
With jak and Carl, and when they get back, Dave on one of his trips "up north
Comes back and says "whey hay boney lad look at what I bought"
A bloody Harley.
"It’s a Harley thing" he said, I can feel that roundabout, need more beer!!
You all know me, mad old git with the old bmw; I thought I made a good choice
Big bike, big solid motor, not fast but fast enough when it needs to be, loads of carrying capasaty,168 cans of beer and a pillion, been to France twice on it
I could go on for hrs about it, and they tell me I should get a Harley.
Well I never did like the idea of a Jap job, can’t be doing with all them pistons going
Up and down like a lunatic sailor in a brothel, sorry Simon,
A stroker was out, I’m strictly a suck, squeeze, bang, blow, job man me.
Ya I know big slow motor bags of power low down, I know, I know
It sounds like a Harley!!!
So it’s after Xmas and time to take aggy to g-mex at Manchester to kit
Her out for the new year on her 125 yam, so off we go,
Not too bad a show lots to see and do then we find a "shop"
This bloke is flogging off a load of Harleys well I go and have a look
Find a 1200 only 2 pots not a lot to go wrong "do you like it" says aggy
"Well ya its ok" I said "but I do not think you will let me have it"
"Why what is wrong with it" "it’s the tank" I said as aggy came over to have a look
Mmmm she said "I do not like the look of the ribs on that girl"
"Ribs" said I "she needs them ribs to hold up them tits girl",
"Well you would think that wouldn’t you"
"If you want it then buy it"
So after a think about it which took about 10 mins I did just that.
So 2 weeks later im at golborne Carl, Dave and jak are running escort duty
And I finally get to ride a Harley
Off we go down the A580, M6, gate 19 and into Northwick to pick up a book for Dave
And you know what, I did not stop laughing all the way, I’ve not stopped yet.
IT’S A HARLEY THING
