They have two separate bike weeks, one for black people and one for white people.  Evidently it is known to cause problems ...

Frankly, not one of those does anything for me.
OK, the Harley with the four cylinders and four splayed pipes was cool.
Ridiculous, but cool. :)
Overall, I prefer my trusty GS500E.
Much nicer.

I like the roland sands' bike. The glory stomper is one of my favorite biker build off bike and his new 450 supersingle racer is beautiful...

The twin engine Harley is a land speed bike.  The "spokless" wheeled 'Busa has solid lexan wheels.

Kinda sad that even bikers can't get along in a world without racism.  Thats absurd to have to have a black and white bike week.  Man I'ma hafta get me some custom stars and bars paint job for it golly gee.  Seriously. 

On a lighter note, only a few of them really did anything for me.  I really like the red and gold vtwin and the fighters.  The stretched busas and zx14's get real old real quick.  I can appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into making something like that with all the custom and chromed parts, but I just don't like straight line non-functional bikes.  They are built for show only.  I want something that gets awes like an mv agusta that sikdmax got or an f4 with all carbon.  I guess i'm getting old because now I prefer form over function.

And Black Bike Week started it's self.  We go because there are mostly sports bikes.  But there was never a line drawn saying white people show up here, and then black people show up there.  I guess alot of black riders started gathering after bike week was over and over the years it just became a seprate thing all together.  You won't hear any black people there complain about it, they're proud of it.
