how to REALLY tell a Harley from a Hoover
The rule about the dirtbag on the top is pretty reliable, but not foolproof. I have a found a method of Harley detection that never fails: Ride past the suspicious device on a scooter--the smaller the better--and wave. If it waves back, its a Hoover.

Don't wave unless you are carrying a cork.
And it's a vacuum cleaner. Hoover was your cross dresser.

Cross dresser? Hoover? No quite. He wasn't gay
In that way.

Herbert was our 31st President (1929-1933), while J. Edgar was director of the FBI (1924-1972) and, now famously, discovered to be a cross-dresser.
I, too, missed the reference to "carrying a cork".
