I am

My photo
I live at 1 Frozen place in, Minnesota, United States
My real name is Mark. For many years now my wife has called me Mr. Motorcycle. When I started my Blog I was looking for a catchy blog name, so I went with it. I'm happily married and I'm also a father of 6 children. I have two human offspring, one dog, two cats and one custom Harley. I believe that makes 6 children. When I'm not doing my real full time job, or going for a ride, I like to do art, custom paint jobs, and of course BLOG. If you would like to contact me, my e-mail address is phonetically spelled for avoiding spammers. (I actually do use the number 1 in the beginning.) 1mrmotorcycleATgmailDOTcom

The photo above is my ride :
"Kenny" started life as a stock '97, 883 Sportster. It's been a work in progress since the day I bought it many years ago. Its mostly custom with a built, "slightly juiced up" 1200 motor.
The Metal Fabrication, bodywork and custom paint was done by me.

How the Hell did I come up with a name like Kenny for my bike you ask?...... Most people who name their rides, go with chick names. I of course had to be different. I think bikes look tough, cool and masculine; not feminine. Plus, my father "Ken" has helped make me who I am today. Therefore with a little twist on the name, my bike was named "Kenny".

Ain't It supposed to be a Chevy Bowtie?


Something I saw yesterday, and thought WTF?!

Is he from Minnesota?

Those long cold winters really take their toll on the psyche, don't they? That poor bastard must be confused! LOL!

Mr. Motorcycle said...

Webster World,
YUP.

Ann,
Brainfreeze.

Willy D said...

Looks like its part of the racing stripes (top of cab). But to a die-hard Chevy fan, that’s a reason to open up a case of spray paint whoop ass!

Baron's Life said...

I give up...stick to the "F" Series. This guy is not satisfied with either of the other ones. It's like having a wife and a mistress living under the same roof...imagine the conflicts he must have to put up with...lol
Poor Bastard.!

Dean "D-Day" said...

Is this one of those guys we've talked about before who wears his Harley jacket while riding his Honda?

Mr. Motorcycle said...

I knew it was part of the racing stripes, and they just went around the lettering, but I'm sure even the owner of the truck has thought, Shit, looks kind of like the Chevy Bowtie!

Mastercheif said...

Funny. You sure have an eye for finding this weird stuff.

Mr. Motorcycle said...

My camera is almost always with me. When I see stuff like this, I'm glad I've got it. I'm always pissed when I have no camera, and a blogable Kodak moment appears.

Willy D said...

I’m in the market. What kind of camara?

Mr. Motorcycle said...

I use a Nikon CoolpixS9

It is small, lightweight, and takes a decent photo. 6.1 Megapixels, and #X zoom.

It's a pretty popular digital in the mid-range price. The only problem with most mid-range priced digitals, including this one, is no instant shots. There is always that cheap digital camera delay, that causes you to miss some really good spur of the moment pictures.

For instant response time in digitals, You need to spend about $600.00 or more, and unless you are really into photos, and blowing them up large, the quality does not seem that much different to me.

Mr. Motorcycle said...

Correction to my latest comment. It was to be 3x zoom, not #x zoom.

Also I forgot to mention that the expensive good cameras are big. I like my camera to be able to fit comfortably in my pockets.

"Joker" said...

I did the WTF when I first saw it, then I looked closer and see it's actually closer to a plus sign, even though when you look quick it looks more like the Chevy bowtie.

Maybe the guy's a math teacher?

Mr. Motorcycle said...

Joker, I agree with you. Definitely closer to a plus sign, but still makes you go WTF at first.

Anonymous said...

I'm with Dean. I immediately thought of the dude with the Harley jacket on his Honda!

And Joker...excuse me, but what are you trying to say about math teachers?

Dean "D-Day" said...

BTW...Nice license plate.

Mr. Motorcycle said...

Dean,
I was wondering if anyone would catch that one. Good eye! I didn't think anyone would click on the image to read the license plate!

Dean "D-Day" said...

Must be the small amount of "cop" left in me.

Anonymous said...

I dated (read: slept with) a guy who had the Chevy bowtie tattoo'd on his chest. I was drunk, and his shirt was on when I picked him up.

Anyway, here's my new blog. Not much on it yet. :)

Another poor sap who is afraid to offend someone. Looks like a "politically correct" logo paint job; I see Ford, Chevy and Dodge in there together. Everyone should be happy now.

Allen Madding said...

also note the slanted 8 decal in the back window. He must be a Dale Earnhardt, Jr fan too (Chevrolet). Perhaps the reliability of a Chevrolet was too much for him, so he bought a Dodge so he could meet a lot of nice mechanics.

-Peace

Webster World said...

As a painter would you not but paint the opposite colors instead of what he did?

Mr. Motorcycle said...

WW,
Considering that the letters would go through both colors, I'd of done something completely different.
