Did you know?

The Fonz (aka Henry Winkler) couldn’t actually ride a motorcycle, he was actually scared of motorcycles.

I'll bet he wasn't such a great hit with the girls, either!

Not like us real riders!   :grin
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

DID YOU KNOW

In the 1970s cop show CHiPs, Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada, who played bike patrolmen Jon and Ponch, were so dissatisfied when their Kawasaki Z1000s were swapped for BMWs that they put the BMW fairings on the Kawasakis and continued to use them.

The 'Fonz's' only ride on a bike was for the opening bit of the show. What you didn't see was where he didn't/couldn't stop and smashed into the garage wall.  :rofl
