Standing desk, but you raise it
really high so you can compute chopper style.

Oh god... this is going to fucking date my but... you know that chopper above was so fucking hard on your ass/body that you really had to man up on riding those fuckers long distance. The Easy Rider bike From the movie had no front brake and the HD Knuckle Head motor was placed on a ridged frame.
I can attest to 2 facts on Riding HD motorcycles up to the year 1998.
1. The EVO engine is the engine that saved Harley Davidson. The Twin 88 IMHO eventually helped killed Harley Davidson due to the increased inability of working on your motorcycle. In the 90's, all the way to the great recession, HD was selling a myth about being a "manly man" if you buy the bike and promoted the types of legal poker runs and parties.
There is a lot I could say about it but it's sort of bitter sweet. HD sold a product and a myth to unsuspecting idiots and in the end they did not make the changes that the market and economy was going through the 2010's and onwards.
I think of it this way. People poured 20 to 60 thousand on a piece of metal that they can not get their money back.
Such as any of the custom bikes during that time. People bought into the myth and now they are stuck with a boat anchor that they will not make their money back.
My bike is arguably the best HD motor cycle ever made. The FXRS Low Rider Convertible. My bike is 29 years old. It is in excellent shape and is 99% stock and I have the original break lines as well. I can sell it more than I bought because the FXR series are in high demand. I bought the bike because I knew it was a fucking awesome bike in the first place I knew at the time I was going to save money in the long haul by not paying expensive insurance and gas as gas has gone up and down during the 90's and onward.
There was no need to buy Thunder headers or make modifications to increase my performance. I rode long distance so if my bike performs @ 70mph and if I had to ride 1000 to 2000 miles in long haul then I want something that is reliable. And the EVO with a Mikuni carburetor was just that. Simple as fuck to maintain. Durable as fuck as well.
HD was selling the myth. Easy Riders and "Captain America" was a great part of the myth of living that manly life and they sold it well. However they were selling that myth with marketing and over the years ignoring the quality that went into building a bike.
Because of course you want those extra dollars coming in from those Harley Certified Technicians costing you 3 to 6 hundred dollars for every 3000 miles when you get a full service.
Yea... I remember it was that bad in the mid 2000's for service in my local HD dealership. But then again I did all of my wrenching myself as with us old timers "If you are going to die on your bike by a mistake, make sure that you are the one that made that mistake and not someone else".
2. There is the real truth on the term "Milwaukee Vibrator". I had one special bike just rigged up for that. God people originally laughed that is was a Sportster (until they seen the miles I put on it) and its paint scheme. All purples, blues, with pink stripping.
That bike with matching helmets was a fucking chick magnet. Ride a few short miles along the country side or during a poker run, A little snack. A little beer Ride a little bit, letting the vibration do its magic on a lady wearing tight leathers/short pants and more often than not its an evening of balls to the walls action. Only a few knuckle grinders knew the scheming and just laughed when I was going to their home with girl after girl.
When HD started rubber mounting everything for a smoother ride, well there went poor guys like me who is ugly as shit getting any chance of doing the Horizontal Mamba with some cute babes.
Yea... in ending... there was truth in the way of a Biker's life out on the rode as presented by the movie and the bikers from the 60's all the way to the late 90's. I enjoyed it when I could. Then everything changed. The aspect of a real brother hood is gone. Really gone. Everything now is fake, like cheap ass chrome flaking off metal.
And now myth of whatever a biker is supposed to be is whatever Hollywood creates.
