Yes. Welcome to the interweb. Here's some homework for you: http://www.ianchadwick.com/motorcycles/ ... ime05.html. Pay particular attention to the 1983 to 1990 timeframe, when the original factory ceased production and went into receivership.

Now here's the definition of "continuous", as explained by a proper online dictionary that uses research and facts for its entries, not by one that is filled with voluntary contributions: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/continuous.

For your assignment, due tomorrow morning, explain in a minimum 1,000 word essay the differences between the Meridian Triumph logo and the Hinckley Triumph logo and why both of them have "fudge" all to do with an owner submitted photo thread of Harleys in a Harley forum.

Jon, we broke bread together and you were ballast in my Ural sidecar once... you are a friend, not an interloper. And this isn't a closed forum. :D

Well, was just trying to be friendly and joking to the harley group. But apparently this is not the place to do it. Funny, Harley folk in Alberta are much more happy go lucky. Have a nice summer riding and be safe on your travels.

Uh-huh. And I'll bet you never noticed the "Harley' Best, F*** The Rest" patch I put on the back of your jacket, didja?

Pretty weak, I know, but I'm not awake yet and that's all I could come up with. :oops:

So I'm not going to get my essay then?

As for being friendly and joking, your choice and location of thread to do that in is very puzzling. Funny, but Triumph folk in Ontario are much more concise in making a point and letting their intent known when it comes to that. :P

New to the forum, so perhaps you could so graciously forgive my intrusion and misunderstanding. :imnewhere:
