Lead front page article in today's Tennessean has a pic of a guy sitting on an $18,000 cycle (looks to be an Indian, but what do I know?). He is complaining because his last extended unemployment check was mailed last Friday. Wondering whether he will be eligible for the next round of checks. Has been unemployed since 2006 and presumably drawing checks since. Hey, nothing good lasts forever, Fred!
Check it out on www.tennessean.com then click "News" and let me know what brand cycle. Cool bike, and deserves to be kept on the road. Appears to have a magnificent custom paint job. We can take up a collection to buy gas for it if the gov decides to cut him off if anyone is interested.
Is this a great country or what?!

"Indian Bike ?"
Wonder if the guy knows the value of the "Indian" reel that " came with the bike " ?

Not an Indian , no pushrod tubes on the motor , probably a custom Honda Shadow . Regardless he probably has lots of riding time on his hands , I just can't understand someone being out of work for that long . If someone wants to work there is always someone willing to pay them to do it , it might not be glamorious but its work .
