Default They wonder who built it.

I went on a 260 mile ride Sunday, out of 18 bikes I'm the only one that was riding a metric, all the others were HD. I went where they went, just as fast as they did and in more comfort that some. I took the Boulevard badges off and had a friend who does graphics install a sword and the word "EXCALIBUR" above the blade in old English letters. I'm told all the time that it looks great and on quite a few occasions I've been asked "Who builds Excalibur motorcycles? I lead 'em on and tell them that it's the Canadian Motorcycle Corporation, and they say that they sure build a good looking bike. After I tell them what it really is they say "Oh! is that what it is" as if to say "what are you doing riding with HD riders"? HD are fine bikes but some of the riders I wouldn't have at my dining table even if I was the loneliest man on the planet. You know folks,,, I'm really glad and happy that I own my C50. It's a well engineered machine that I'll match against any other bike manufacturers for quality and durability. I'll ride 'ol EXCALIBUR as long as my health holds up.
