Noticed today that my HRC (Harvey's Racing Chickens) "sweatband" reservoir cover was missing. Who knows when it dissapeared, but Im certain that it didnt just fly off... Someone probably saw it and remembered their Racing Chicken from Harvey and how fast it was. Hopefully I can dig up another one somewhere. I have a set of Limited Edition Red ones awating the arrival of RC numero 2, but dont want to break them out.

That sucks. I wrapped a ziptie around mine. Makes it difficult to remove.

I should've done that with mine. It's probably still laying in the grass somewhere at Grattan...

Re: Apparently someone else is an avid Harvey's Racing Chickens fan...
Whats the exact purpose of these? Is it to keep the sun from beating on the brake fluid and "breaking it down"?


Or is it the simple fact that chics dig it and it adds an easy 5HP?

Re: Apparently someone else is an avid Harvey's Racing Chickens fan...
There have been several reasons touted for using these, but the fact of the matter is, they prevent brake fluid from spilling during a getoff.

Red, I think I have your band if it's red, as Howdie gave it to me last year when they found it on the track. It's currently keeping my clutch reservoir warm . . .

Just stay positive, Chris -

Maybe the asswipe will actually use it as a sweatband, introducing toxic brake fluid into his open pores...

Glad to help restore your faith in the human race..

I don't understand, what's so cool about these chickens? And I've never seen chickens race. Is it like dog or pig racing?
Who is Harvey? Is he like some uber chicken trainer?

These chickens tend to be red and fast. Sometimes they are I4 sometimes V2 and have even been spotted as V5

BDA, I'm embarrased and ashamed for you. How can one not know that the bike Nicky rides is a V5???

How can you not know that the very bike this site was founded upon is an I4??

How can one not know that the RC's beautiful tone and sound is produced by a modern V-Twin???


HRC = Honda Racing Chicken. It fits perfect with all the Woody decals.
The Chicken of all Power and Speed is now angry with you and shall pluck you, deep fry you, and then pick your bones clean for dinner.
