Just saw a commercial for an $8,799usd Can-Am. The Ryker. 600cc, and single seat. Seems like a lot of weight for 600cc. I guess they're good for those that have limited balance, and want a "bike". To me, they're the worst of both worlds: maneuverability of a car. . . . without the air conditioning.

Worst of both worlds to me too.

Just yesterday saw a massively obese woman on one wearing only the smallest of open face helmets and tailgating a sedan on a twisty 2 lane through the woods. I stayed WAY back from that hot mess.

I recall passing a guy on one of these everyday when I was commuting. He was stuck in the traffic column each time as I split lanes on my way past. Why? was always the question I had.

Yup. And, in that traffic during a Texas summer. . . . with no a/c. . . . .

A woman was pregnant with triplets. One day she decided to go for a walk when she was shot in the stomach.

The Doctor said the children would be fine but they would each have a bullet inside them.

It was sixteen years later when one of her girls came down and said that when she had a crap she found a bullet so the mum explained the story.

A bit later her second daughter came down and said when she went for a p**s she found a bullet, so for the second time she explained the story.

All of a sudden her son came down in a right state. His mum turned around and said "Don't tell me: you went to the toilet and found a bullet".

He then turned back and said "No, I was having a w**k and I shot the dog!"

I'm thinking that it's a demo bike. It still has the price tag on it. And, it's right in front of the dealership.

In a separate subject, but related, the new Battlebots Champion is End Game. Many an electric powered robot has erupted in smoke & flame.
It was being charged in the dealership when it started smoking I believe. The tag says "rent me". The Harley staff member is irritated AF lol...
