Maybe I'm weird, but I've always liked the Billy bike better.

Your not wierd, everybody liked Billy and Billy's bike better. The Capt. America bike, although cool also, had that wierd California way of mounting the handle bars. I have a couple of old biker movies and that's the only time I have seen handle bars mounted like that, springer mount bars on a glide front end. One of the movies had Fonda in it and his bike in that movie was set up the same way. Hard for me to picture Fonda as a real biker anyway.

If we're good they will come back again and pack the convention center and hopefully now rais the price again to get in.

Fonda has been riding since the sixities, and makes the love run every year.

Here is a little bit of info I found quite interesting about those 2 bikes.

Either one of those could sit in my garage anytime. I would love to ride the "Billy Bike".

Saw them today in Sacramento at the Easyrider show. I agree billy's bike is the better of the two..
