I am more of a car type guy, by nature. Although, I have a huge appreciation for motorcycles, as well. My paternal grandfather was an all around mechanical guy. As a youngster, Grandpa was a motorcycle guy. He seemed to favor the American bikes, but there were a couple foreign bikes, as well. He rode out to California from Michigan in the 40's on a Harley. He and his brother were into hill climb racing. He had a Harley till the day he died. That is a bike I wish I could have kept in the family.... But, that was not to be... I was introduced to bikes at an early age, but I will save that for another day...
