The Evolution of the Motorcycle

The Evolution of the Motorcycle

On the first day, God created the Heavens, the Earth and the Wisemans Ferry Road. But he wasn't Happy. His Kingswood would sway on the corners, crawl up the hills and use heaps of juice.

On the second day, God took a new track and he created the stepthrough. He enjoyed the wind in his hair, it was fun, and used bugger all petrol. But it still crawled up the hills.

So on the third day, God created the Honda-4, and it flew up the hills. With a Four Into One, it sounded better, it never broke down, but the corners remained a problem. Yet he had tasted power and craved for more.

Thus on the fourth day , he added two more cylinders to his Honda and created adrenaline. His insurance premiums doubled, and it cost a fortune to get a tune up done. He also created fear, and the cliché, "Enough is Enough".

On the fifth day, God pulled a few cones, had a rap with Willy-G, and created the Harley Davidson. He would cruise up and down the hills in top gear, and pick up heaps of chicks. He would get off on the note, but the Hog was too heavy, broke down a lot and handled like the Kingswood.

Then on the sixth day, he made the Bonnyville. He still got chicks outside the Wiseo's Pub, it sounded good. his bike was light, and for the first time the corners were fun, it handled.

God was stoked, but the vibration gave him a pain in the arse. His kidneys were history. It was a tough gutless machine and ran out of petrol every 100 miles. He wasn't happy, but shit he was close.

So on the seventh day, God produced a scoot with the speed of a Honda, the torque of a Harley, and the handling of a Triumph. He could afford the petrol, tune it himself, pick up chicks, and still blow Nortons through the corners.

He called his bike Ducati, and he was happy.

Just because you're not dead doesn't necessarily mean you're living, either.
