Biker on a Harley had some words about my Camaro - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I was stopped at a light on my way to work this morning, about a car length behind me in the left lane were 2 Harleys. One of the guys (one BIG biker dude) was like yo, yo, YO! Not knowing he was trying to get my attention I ignored him until he said “you in the Camaro”.

At that point I quickly turned and he said “I just have to tell you that is one fine piece of American Machinery you have there”. I thought of the things I’ve heard about my car that was one of the best

. We continued to chat till the light turned green, he said he has an 86 IROC that rarely sees the light of day. The coolest thing was the typical “is that a V8” question never crossed his lips, he just loved the car!!

Made my morning!!

You should have told him "Made in Canada", eh?

When I first got mine a guy drove by me on a Harley and about drove up on the curb rubbernecking.

Back in mid 2009 when I first got my car, I had a few Harley riders wave at me while going down the road...it was cool indeed.

I am a Harley guy (at least I use to be before I got my darn Camaro)..... American (north) all the way for me

There is my poor Harley collecting dust in the background:

That guy was so big he could have said it was made in Poland and I still would have just said thank you

I am a guy on a Harley. When I see a Camaro comming at me I always give a thumbs up. If that happens to you in New England, it could be me. When I am not on my Harley, I have a 2010 SIM 1SS.

Awesome!!! Totally agree with you, his size did matter!!!

my story exactly. I used to ride my Victory year round and I have only ridden it 4 times since I got my 11 2SS/RS back in September.
