It's your bike, make it your own!!  I made changes to mine that others might not like, but I'm not trying to tell them they have to like it.  As long as you are comfortable and feel "right" on your bike, do what you like, and let anyone who doesn't like it pound sand up their ....

Speaking of ape hangers, I was looking up laws about something, can't even remember now... (yea, old age settin' in again)  but I do remember seeing that in WV, the law on handlebars is maxiumum of 15" above the seat.  Kentucky has no handlebar restriction.

Here's a nice little chart, by state:http://www.amadirectlink.com/legisltn/laws.asp

And sunblock?  Spfttt, sunblock is for babies and wusses  LOL

I never pick on any one,it's just that you allways seem to leave your self open to it.
FREEDOM huh ! in that case just jump on your bike or get in your car and go,never worry about a licence,of a helmet, heck take the brakes off the bike. Driving or riding is a privilage not a right.
you earn that right by taking tests and paying for your use of the road you share with everyone else. So go out and and scrape your foot pegs down to nubs,and your knee pucks down to the leather,have fun
I do know one thing for sure,you are only young once, godamit.

It appears we should call this room "the debate room". We cover alot of different issues. Their are times we all pretty much agree on a subject and other times, well we don't.

I feel being able to come here and share my opinions is a freedom. Now whether some or most agree or disagree is alright with me. That is what makes us all unique.

It would be a very boring world if we all thought alike as well as rode bikes that looked exactly alike and heaven forbid looked alike..

Mick, your so very right saying, "were only young once".

The saying "if I could go back to my childhood with the knowledge I now have" really rings true as you get older.

If you choose to wear gear or not including a helmet. It is your head not mine that will be injured. If you choose to wear sunblock again your skin that will possibly be burned not mine.
Again just because I may not agree with some on issues don't mean I can't agree with you on other issues.
Also my opinion is mine and yes I have a patent on it..

OOo Earlytimz I did it again.. got off topic.. Please get us back on..

On topic my butt!...  Where's the fun that?... ...
So anyway,...  When I ride,.. between the FF helmet, sunglasses, mustache, and goatee,... the only exposed part of my face is my huge nose...
...I look like Rudolf... ...

I wore a pair of those cool driving gloves on a long ride once and ended up with bright red circles on every knuckle...  
Looks ridiculous when you take them off...
Life's so tough......

Just don't do the chaps without the jeans...

Serious burns in all the wrong places... ...
