Leno and the Rockstore


 

Some time ago on this group a member mentioned a comment Jay Leno had
made about seeing a dubya at the Rockstore once.....I don't recall the
exact statement supposedly made but it was kinda slightly derogatory,
maybe a little symbolically correct, and did at least acknowledge he
recognizes the dubya and has given some thought to it.

Anyone recall the comment?? I'm sure a search would bring it up though.

Haven't seen another W here in the Los Angeles area either. We ride
almost every Sunday to the Rockstore in Malibu, Cali, where you see
pretty much every kind of motorcycle. Jay Leno always rides up with
bizarre looking bikes or cars. Every time I ride up on the W, people
just gather around it because they never seen one and most have no
idea what it is. Matter of fact my husband was a little upset (haha)
everyone is checking out my bike and not his pristine cafe racer 04
Triumph Thruxton.

I'm pretty sure it was the Love Ride, not the Rock Store. The comment
was along the lines of "It looks good, like a transvestite, but I'm
not sure about it when you get on top of it" or something similar. I
think that was referring the power level, not the looks.

Ray Nielsen, and I may be misquoting by quite a bit.


 

Yep, that's close to the issue....the next post #17537 is even
closer....what I remember was a fuller quote and more recent than five
years ago....at least as I recall.

If you go to the group website, a search for? Leno? brings about 150 responses, you can zero in on a time you think is right.

Thanks to Ray Nielsen's memory being much better than mine....his post
today....#129615....is pretty much on target from what I recall and is
close enough for me.

No further search is necessary is far as I'm concerned.
