What my motorcycle says to me.

Every year you sink into the seat a little more. Is there an issue? Should I bypass the diners?
 
1967 Triumph T120 Bonneville ----------If I'd had this bike instead of a
Cushman Eagle when I lived at the fraternity house in 1965, I might now
be married to a former cheerleader named Veronica.

Cushman back in the day was the ride of quiet soulful types who met in coffee shops with girls who wore black and read 13th century Italian poetry and listened to Bob Dylan.

Bonnies were ridden by the guy who had a Chevelle SS Convertible as his other ride, belonged to THE Frat on campus and dated Veronicas.
