A guy in Vancouver was beachcombing, and stumbled across the remnants of a moving truck washed out to sea by the Japanese Tsunami. Among the contents? A rusty HD.

damn, I would've thought it would be in the ocean floor, not floating around like drift wood. Didnt think the tires were that buoyant.
Proof that Harleys don't even make good anchors...
Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.
Follow up: Harley Davidson to restore and return motorcycle to owner.

Likely cheaper for them to park it in the museum and hand him a new one.
The thing looked rougher than a night in jail and Chinese 'rithmatic combined.
Restoration even I wouldn't take on.

Can't imagine what the salt water has done rusting things together. OTOH it'll probably drop less bolts than a new HD.

"When you on the track, you have to be enjoying the moment, you have to be flowing, "Be water, My Friend". You try to be the fastest, and it seems a little beet estupid, 20 riders making the same way, lap by lap, but this simple thing: is very complicated." #99
