    You can tell it's a Triumph by all the oil stains on the concrete! :D

    BTW - that's Sonny and Cher!

    My first motorcycle.......had the same weird handlebars......and the same grips.

    Oddly enough......I had the same goofy grin on my face too! Guess I didn't know better, huh?

    Did your first motorcycle also have magic levitating brake and clutch levers and front fender, fork tubes with the exact same finish as the fork lowers (natural wood?) and randomly sized and spaced knobbies on the front tire? Cool!

    AI

    At least he only has 4 fingers visible on each hand.

    I never said anything about AI.

    I was only speaking to the two comments about the handlebars and grips.

    But since you brought it up - who cares about whether it's AI or not?

    There's a very genuine and REAL point being made about *some* kids never experiencing the pure joy of flying around outside on something with wheels.

    I know. I did. And I care. We don't need more of this slop in our lives. There's an abundance with much more to come.

    Fairly sure the two comments were more about how they looked just plain wrong. Like how the grips are FAR larger than the bar diameters and appear to be hanging on the bars. With shoelaces wrapped around the inside?

    There's plenty of pics of real kids, on real bikes, making real points. Like your last pic. I so remember doing that. Awesome. Although, pretty sure the Atari 2600 was out in that pic.
