XS650 Enthusiast
I was at a service station today (gas station to you Americans) and noticed a chopper with an XS650 motor. I was checking it out and the owner returned to his bike after paying for his petrol. Immediately, we were talking about his bike. His passion was apparent. He was a rough sort of dude and normally I'd not really associate with him. If it wasn't for his bike, I wouldn't have talked to him I reckon. Just goes to show that appearances aren't everything.
It occurred to me, strangers that would not otherwise normally mix had a common bond , over a bike of all things! It's a strange world, isn't it?
The ammount of times I've talked to strangers about bikes, it never ceases to amaze me that a piece of machinery is sometimes all we need to connect with other humans.
Here I am, in Australia, communicating this to people I've never met yet it doesn't seem strange to me.
