went to the rooster cafe this morning, its nice to have a regular monthly ride/meetup. you get to see friends you dont see every day.

walked right past this bike when i walked in to order my egg sandwich, but when i came outside i looked over and "what the fuck? thats a knuckle!" the owner said he built it 30 years ago to look like some "new lowrider" model they had just come out with, that he wanted but couldnt afford. so he had to settle for this. poor fella...

Cool knuck. Its refreshing to see something like that, different. Neat little story to go with it.

I bet that guy's glad he didn't get rid of that Knuckle for an FXR (I'm guessing) now!

Actually it's my bike and I would never have gotten rid of it. I like the styling of the late seventies Lowrider and copied the look. But hay, it's been thirty years so I think I may go through it again soon.
