posted by bird at 8 38 am no comments labels flynch good stuff great writing seedy the chronicles of flynch the house the flynch built and is building at the moment this is his house i m just living in it thursday january 28 2010 adventuring a lot of people say that rigid framed motorcycles are nothing but show bikes or bar hoppers a lot of people talk about how horrible they are to ride how ridiculous riding without rear suspension is how bad they work how painful it can be how bad they handle how fragile they are ect ect of course we know they don t all work badly or handle bad or hurt to ride and aren t really fragile but what about the practicality of them what about using them for real motorcycles should we listen to the critics and relegate our choppers to bar hopping duty or capitulate and admit that they are merely show bikes come on you can t be serious i can t believe i have to state the obvious but it appears that i must after some recent conversations i have had with the general public there was a little event that you may have heard of some time ago it was called the 70 s and before that the 60 s and i m not sure but i think that there were even some years before that my grandfather mentioned it to me once but i think he may have been lying people come on there wasn t always suspension on the back of motorcycles and people rode those rigid motorcycles everywhere they were as flynch called them valid modes of transportation or vmot if these things were really the torture devices we have been led to believe they are then every one of those patcholders and travelers from the days of yore would be paralyzed and crippled its absolute nonsense and people are buying into this crap if you can t ride your rigid framed motorcycle farther than your local bar then you need to change something on your bike something isn t working right change your ergonomics relocate your pegs seat bars change your front forks to something that works better check your tire pressure i know of a guy here in town who won t ride his rigid anywhere because he insists that he needs to be running 65 psi in his rear tire no joke and he keeps saying that it rides horrible i m not saying you can t own any motorcycle you want what i am saying is that there should be no reason you can t be using that rigid framed bike as much as any other motorcycle with rear suspension when you walk out in the garage with your saddlebags over your shoulder for a long trip you should stand there and really fight to come up with a good reason not to take that rigid instead of your swingarm bike but this is just the beginning of the problem at the core of this issue is something much more troubling to me the loss of the concept of adventure in our culture you watch any tv lately did you know you need two insanely over packed bmw gs s a huge bank account multiple corporate sponsorships and 2 3 chase vehicles to ride your bike across a continent or two sure you do just ask the producers of ewan mcgregor s and charlie boorman s two motorcycle travel mini series the long way round and the long way down don t watch tv much me neither then check out adventurerider com people you are being told over and over again that adventure means having the right gear the right bike the right plan the right gps the right training the right tank bag the right laptop the right aluminum panniers the right camera the right amount of money in the bank account the right boots the right underwear the right cologne the right body the right girl if you don t have this stuff you aint gonna make it don t even try even ewan and charlie got told that and they had all the right stuff what happened to taking whatever you have and just doing it well i m here to tell you your ancestors have done it for centuries with nothing nothing grab a horse a blanket a knife and go work where you stop for some food sleep under the stars live off the land survive live enjoy presto you re having an adventure we have been turned into a race of complete pansies we can t handle anything if we don t have our double espresso soy mocha latte frappuccino enema every morning noon and night it takes nothing nothing to get out there and have an adventure i know a guy doing this very thing on a bicycle no money no cares works where he stops and moves on and he is having the time of his life in the long way down series ewan and charlie are shamed two separate times to come across bicycle adventurers in africa on their latest trip people out there living it not worrying about what they can t do on their antiquated machines ever heard of the 555 google it check it out it s a group of people setting out on a trip with pre 1975 sub 500cc motorcycles that cost them less than 500 to purchase and prepare and they did it twice http www thefivefivefive com home i saw this kid riding a scooter through my town in nebraska from new york wasn t able to stop him to talk to him you think he checked with adventure rider com to find out if his scooter was acceptable adventuring material do you think he agonized over the most adventure capable aluminuim panniers or which piaa lights would offer him the most optimum light pattern for nighttime adventure riding this is a shot of my xl350 honda my wife s uncle gave it to me he once rode it from kansas to canada back down to mexico and then back to kansas you have probably met or heard of people doing huge long distance runs on sport bikes i know of several guys or how about gary inman s article in cycle world about the time he rode a benelli tnt across the sahara desert ok then what about the toxic tour article about that guy who rode that 360 yamaha 2 stroke enduro from washington to florida ok lets see i know ever heard of the guy who rode his goldwing through the jungle no ok ok fine i will scan them in for you but you owe me one see articles below how about my earlier posts about panheads in the jungles or on the polar icecaps http attackchoppers blogspot com 2009 08 rigid frames being used as actual html and what about the people who do it without a bike ever hear of people traveling with a tractor or traveling in a 2wd mercedes station wagon or how about these random adventure vehicles you see people are out there every day living it while you are missing it what s your excuse to not ride your rigid to work today to a buddies house across town to not ride for 4 hours or 10 hours or across a few states how about across the country and back not enough storage space wah not enough wind protection cry me a river no power plugs for your heated coffee cup give me a break no anti lock brakes you have got to be kidding me no radio yeah right get over it grow a pair saddle up have an adventure quit whining and enjoy your life while it lasts you are running out of time tom rose once shared a very important story with me about adventure last year tom was riding some dirt roads far from civilization with a very attractive lady friend who was in fact a swimwear model they ran out of gas tom left her on the bike while he hiked up the road to a ranch to ask for some gas o line while she was sitting there on the bike on a dirt road on a harley davidson with her jacket off clearly in need of some assistance a guy rode by on a very nice bmw gs this particular bmw was all prepped for adventure with crash bars aluminum panniers skidplates gps handguards and the works he was all hooked up man ready for anything and as he neared the very attractive lady clearly broken down in the middle of nowhere on a harley he slowed down looked at her very carefully and rolled right on by and motored on down the road hmm let s see broken down harley hot women middle of nowhere i don t know about you guys but that has adventure written all over it in huge 10 foot tall blinking neon letters now when tom told his brother joel this same story and was laughing at this adventure riders lack of ability to sense and adventure when it s beating his face in with a titanium tire iron joel looked at tom and said in a very matter of fact manner sure tom but he wasn t adventuring today and there it is it s not the bike or the gear or the person it s the mindset if you aren t ready to go adventuring every time you kickstart that evil attack chopper you will never have an adventure cause you don t need one of these you need some of these don t be a chump ride that rigid posted by bird at 7 49 pm 6 comments labels adventure bikes adventures on a rigid adventuring newer

attack chopper builders to build better bikes 5 show sources of inspiration outside of the motorcycle sphere and chopper sphere of influence 6 exalt the heros of the faith class class disclaimer this is not a blog about bikes with long front ends this is not a blog about slow bikes this is not a blog about bikes with huge wide fat tires this is not a blog about bikes that can t turn this is not a blog about show bikes core principles of the attack chopper philosophy light skinny fast tough good handling good ground clearance good brakes my chopper manifesto i do not accept the assumption that a rigid framed motorcycle cannot go fast stop quickly or handle well i want my choppers to perform above the social accepted performance standard for rigid framed motorcycles that is to say bad these are the standards i have set before myself to achieve with said choppers my choppers must be able to evade pursue and allow me to survive my choppers must be light my choppers must be skinny and be able to navigate tight traffic with ease my choppers must go fast accelerate hard stop well handle good and do so without fusing my vertabrae my choppers must not scrape hard parts when leaning my choppers are not bar hoppers my choppers are not non functioning scuplture my choppers must function like a real useable vehicle my choppers must be a valid mode of transportation my choppers must not be built for other peoples enjoyment or entertainment my choppers must be built for me and my preferences and standards alone my choppers must not be fragile my choppers must be able to hop curbs hit potholes skid wheelie do burn outs and crash without breaking my choppers must be able to be ridden on all sufaces pavement dirt gravel snow sand mud hero s and inspiration flynch tom rose joel otto
