Don't be a hater, don't buy into the moronic, racist argument that they have no business being into this thing, it's absolute bullshit and the product of tiny minded needledicks with a raging jealousy complex, Japan has had such an immersion in American culture since the end of WWII it's as much in their blood as anyone from the middle of Milwaukee, furthermore, they appear to have a bunch more honest fun being involved in it than many from the States, UK or Aussie who are frequently much more concerned with others perception of themselves . . . . despite all the period perfection, the hip gear, the constant tipping of their hats to the iconography and reference points associated with the bikes and the lifestyle, they do it because they love it and are mental about it, that in itself is worthy of utmost respect . . . . fuck the attitude, let's ride !!!!

Yep, the Japs and Nordic Europeans do some incredible shit with old Amërïkän iron. Every one was tight as hell. The first one with the pinstriped fender was so clean and correct it made my balls twitch just a little.
ReplyDeleteIt's always good when they twitch, even if just a little . . .
DeleteThe Japanese, and French bikers, such sharp dressers.... When I lived in Japan in the late 50's probably the only guys riding a Harley were cops.How things have changed, some cool looking rides there.
ReplyDeleteIt's my contention that those same Jap kids you were growing up with became the torch bearers for the whole modern pop culture thing Laz, hence their history being so steeped in all things to do with Harley's, rock+roll and all the other wonderful aspects of American cultural imperialism post WWII . . . just a theory as a history nutter.
