-25 this morning with windchill. Yep below zero by 25 degrees. I'll ride in the teens but not in this. I won't even ride the ice in this cold of temps. Here was me last Saturday. Too bad the tag wasn't "nothing in sight at all"

This is what it used to look like. (disclaimer not me but an internet pic)
It is a Dodge military truck called an M37 made from 1952 to 1967 until it was replaced in 1968 by the Kaiser/Jeep M715 (that I used to own)

Nope.
Any old fire truck.
Thought about saying Old military equipment converted to civilian use, but figured someone would post a pic of their dirty underwear on their bike or something.

Yep. I went home at lunch and got the bike figuring I'd grab this after work. Temps started dropping pretty quickly so I bailed out of even looking. Glad I did...

TAG: Your motorcycle and a sign proclaiming "World Famous" or "Hottest", bonus if it's also a Mexican Restaurant.

Yes, it's a gravity feed fuel cell that is plumbed into the main tank. There is a thread in the Beasts section of the forum. The flat bed design is low profile and great for a load platform on trips. There is a ball valve on the left side, filter and drybreak fittings on the marine grade fuel line and it has a tip over vent at the back. Custom made by a friend with made skills who makes custom fuel cells among other moto goodies. Ernie Azevado in Oregon.

I thought this one would be cake, but everywhere I remembered "world famous" was on the menu, NOT the signs. :(
thought about holding a menu up. but assumed SOMEONE would grab it by now.

I'll accept the menu if it's in the pic with the sign and bike, or menu and business in background, with bike. I'm easy, just like the tags to move along. Like you, I was surprised this didn't go fast.

There's an "almost world famous" hot dogs sign out in Clayton that I just remembered. Someone point LoneWolf to this. He'll know exactly where it is.
