My half filapino cousin bought 2 Triump Tigers, twins so I would ride with him, he was always working on mine or his,Ha, Cheers and I road raced mustang's, love me some "Twisty's".SSI was a mechanic for a few years before the military & owned a custom shop for years even after I went into the Navy.
Worked on all makes & models, but American bikes were few in the shop. Lot of Ducati, Aprilia and Triumph as well as the big 4 Japanese brands.
Patch holder, yes, but not the kind of clubs you're thinking. We were all racers... road coarse guys. Blackhawk, Road America, and Putnam were our normal circuit.
I personally was a v-twin sport bike guy. Raced a Suzuki TL1000R for a couple years, had a Honda RC 51 for awhile. Rode a Honda Superhawk and a Triumph 955i on the street.
