Boss is so busy, he started another shop to get busy with business.
In the news this week, Bandit watches an old Science Fiction movie again and draws comparison to the current chaos on planet Earth regarding our oxygen levels. Can you guess the name of that flick based on a novelette by Philip K Dick–the author didn’t have such a cool name for it.
MRF reminds you about the politics of motorcycles and your rights that you need to defend instead of waiting for shit to hit your fan. Trust them, it will get worse if you keep assuming someone else is to take care of these liberties and freedoms. IMA informs you, you own your vehicle and hence should be able to repair it without the meddling of the company you buy any vehicle from. Yup, they won’t even let you repair things you thought you owned. Join the freedom movements at grassroots levels and ride their corporate ass up Wall-Street. What does AMA think of right-to-repair? Read the news to know more.
AMA got a sponsor in Yamaha because according to a birdie, Harley-Davidson is too busy sponsoring woke nonsense / nuisance. Well, we can only vouch for the AMA news though.
Why not go watch wild motorcycle stuff in the bastion of wild motorcycle stuff — Sturgis Buffalo Chip. There’s a Daredevil Wednesday coming up. Lot more events this summer, so check the news for ’em all. Hey, check out the photos and report on Ball Jr’ biker event Hellraiser–what a success in just the second year running.
Also in this big fat news, there are some interesting quotes, emails, art, general knowledge, history, parts-tech mystery, bad jokes and even lyrics for your entertainment. Lifestyle Cycles has got a cool motobike for you this week–if you tell ’em Bikernet.com sent ya, they will let you ride it too. Our coverage of Sturgis Motorcycle Museum will appear on the museum website each week –so tell ’em how much you enjoy it when you get there. Can you spot Bandit’s bike on the shelf at the museum? Send us a photo and tell Bandit you wanted to buy it but now its better suited for the museum.
American Prime Mfg and Kodlin are still making new trinkets to make your motorcycle move better–okay–they are great motorcycle parts–but tell the wife its trinkets when she sees the charges on your credit card. Buy her a Spirit Bell from 5-Ball Racing Shop—it will keep the devil out of her head and heart. Do you know what is a bedroll? Do you know what is a horse? Well, ride anyways, but check out the insight into the making of the Commander’s bedroll meant for serious riding in a posse to a place where no one knows your name.
As mentioned in the dissing subtitle, the 5-Ball Emporium is coming together and filling up fast…..with stuff that needs to be sold. So check it out when you are in Sturgis and ask for a free subscription to the Bikernet weekly newslettter. He might just oblige.
Well, what’s more to say than–click here and read the news already!
Yours truly,
