Good motorcycle deed of the day

[Bandit12k]

^ I think i figured it out.
If the harley has a front fairing, they wave, and ussually have a chick on the back.

If it's a naked harley, they're snobs.



But, i have a story like that too. A couple weeks ago when i was driving from NH back home to RI, i was goin through the Providence S curves. Right before Thurbers ave, there was a motorcyclist dead in the water on the inside lane. The car next to me almost smashed him! Poor guy... i pulled over, took an exit, whipped around and the fastest i could turn around was going to 195, first exit, back around, and back on 95 S. He was gone by the time i was back around, but i had the ramps and tie downs in my pickup at the time too. Either way, i felt good for trying, and didn't think once it was a waste of gas.

Nice job!

Does this mean at least 1 Harley guy out there will wave to us?

They wave to me all the time... Must be your GIXXA!

Yeah, Harley guys in VT seem to wave all the time.

Perhaps the karma gods will smile on me a bit after my random good deed of the day.

On the drive home today I saw a motorcycle cruise to a stop on the other side of the highway. After internally debating for 5 seconds I pulled the Ducati van off the next exit, spun it around, and shot back down the highway. Found the guy pushing his Harley in the breakdown lane. Pulled over, opened the back door of the van (where I had a ramp, tie-downs, and 848 stuffed) and said "LOAD HER UP DUDE".

Had to fully unload the 848 as his Harley was sorta large and had high-ass bars installed. After some wresting, sweating, and swearing we got both bike loaded into the back and down the road to the next gas station. Yea, just had run out of gas about 2 miles from the gas station he was heading for.

Sorta cool Harley too. Nice custom paint and whatnot. Rider was about my age and also owned a Buell Cyclone and R6. He couldn't believe someone actually stopped to help him out but fuck it, I didn't have anywhere to rush to (was on way home) and we're all riders right.

After the last few shit weeks at work, felt really nice to do something decent for someone.

Moral of story: Take care of our own and make sure the tank is full!

I'm glad he gave you something for the helping hand.
