TSY FRIDAY FADE | THE LATE NIGHT 1970’s BADASS BIKER ROUNDUP

It’s Friday, folks.  No heavy lifting.  Sit back while TSY rolls-out The Best of 1970’s Biker Roundup. Badass bikes built by real bros.  Slamming Bud in tin cans.  Braided ol’ ladies with an aversion to bras, bouncin’ on back, bracin’ the sissy bar.  Sucking SoCo from a skin.  Passing out shirtless in the tall grass as the bonfire fades into dawn.   Why, oh why did it have to end?  Because it was too rad to last…

Because he can.  And back then it might get ya’ a boob flash. In a Herculean effort to prove the 45 Magnum is a lightweight, Randy Smith hoists 203 pounds of machine off the ground, solo. The whole 45 magnum weighs only slightly more than a unit Sportster engine.

Proudly have pics like this in the ol’ family album?  We may be kin.  via

Wanna have a good time?  Hide that fake leg.  If he uses the electric start… pussy.  One legged, albeit.

No sleep ’til Brooklyn, bro.
