I knew a guy here in Austin who had a Square Four and another who had the big 1000cc Vincent Black Shadow. What beasts. Myself, a Honda 450, a BSA Super Rocket 650 twin, a Harley Sportster, and briefly, as a result of a trade, one of those ridiculously monstrous hand shift, foot clutch Harleys. Had the Sportster at the same time, got rid of the big Harley as soon as possible. The Honda had the best handling, most reliable, least sex appeal. The BSA was super fast, handled badly, came close to killing me, but I somehow escaped with only minor injuries. Sportster was loud, rough, best for impressing girls. Big Harley was for people with a death wish. My cousin Tommy built engines for the Bandidos. Some said the Bandidos were as bad as Hell's Angels, some said worse. Tommy wasn't a gangster, he was an artist, rode a BMW. Too many stories to recite here.... RNJ
