The DAM line-up will make its appearance for the 2005 model year, with four different models – Original, Nitro, Black and Blue, and Silver Black. Distinction between the models will be in details such as frame geometry, engine displacement, suspension and paint schemes. The motorcycles will be offered with a range of parts and accessories as well as apparel. Delaware American Motors was created, and is owned, by Mark S Klein, son of Joe Klein, a long-time motorcycle racer of note. After qualifying as a motorcycle technician, Mark went on to build his own race bikes. This interest developed to the stage of owning and managing several race teams. By the early Nineties, he had opened a number of dealerships in New York City, where he was enfranchised with several major brands.To do this, the engineering was out-sourced, as was the assembly. This freed up the business to focus on product development, partnership alliances and customer support. Mark wanted to provide the quality touch of a hand-built custom bike as well as the style and attitude of American cruiser culture.These attributes were to be combined with high-performance suspension and brakes to provide superior ride and handling qualities.Focusing on the design and engineering of the new bikes, the company feels that it has achieved its aims. Pre-production orders are already being taken for year 2005 models.The DAM Original will be at Sturgis, but only for private viewing by journalists and potential customers during the August Sturgis Rally. Interested parties should contact Mark Klein directly at: DELAWARE AMERICAN MOTORS A DEVILISH PARTY–Lucky Devil’s “Polish Your Pipes” Bike Wash & Bar-B-Que.The fine folks at Lucky Devil Metal Works decided to have a party to celebrate their participation in the upcoming “Big Texas Chop-Off” taking place at the Fort Worth Speedway the weekend of September 17th through the 19th.

You’ll see the party coverage and the girls right here on Bikernet, in the next couple of days. –RFR BIKERNET GOLF COURSE– Jack and his friends were playing golfone Saturday. As they are getting ready to teeoff, a guy walks up and asks if he can join them.The friends look at each other, look at theguy and say, ‘Sure.’ About two holes into the game,the friends get curious about what the guy does for a living. So they ask him. The stranger tells them he’sa hitman. They all laugh. The guy says, “No really,I am a hitman. My gun is in my golf bag. I carry it everywhere. You can take a look at it if you like.” So Jack decides to check it out. He opens the bag and, sure enough, there is a rifle with a huge scope attached. Jack gets all excited and says, “WOW! I betI can see my house through here! May I look?” The hit man replies, “Sure.” So Jack looks and says, “YEAH! You can see my house! I can even see throughthe windows into my bedroom. There’s my wife. Wait,there’s my next door neighbor! And he’s naked too!” This really upsets Jack so he asks how much it wouldbe for a hit. The hitman replies, “I get $1000 every time I pull the trigger.” Jack responds,”$1000? Well, OK, I want two hits. I want you toshoot my wife right in the mouth. She’s alwaysnagging at me and I can’t stand it. Second, I want you to shoot my neighbor in the penis, just forscrewing around with my wife.” The hit man agrees, gears up and looks through the scope.He’s looking for about five minutes until finally Jackstarts to get really impatient and asks, “What are youwaiting for?” The hitman replies, “Relax….. I’m about to save you athousand bucks!” –Kenny Samson HAMSTERS SPOTTED IN DEADWOOD–People complain that Hamsters are rich fucks, but many don’t realize that most Hamsters ride to Sturgis Annually.

At a news conference announcing the invention, a large groupof men took the scientist outside and kicked the shit out of him. –from Chris T. CHALK ONE UP FOR THE OLD GUYS– A white haired man walked into a jeweler’s shop late one Friday,with a beautiful young lady at his side. “I’m looking for a special ring for my girlfriend” he said. The jeweler looked through his stock, and took out a lovely ring priced at $5,000. “I don’t think you understand, I want something very unique” he said. At that, the jeweler went to get his special stock from the safe.”Here’s a stunning ring at just $40,000.” The girls’ eyes sparkled, and the man said that he would take it. “How are you paying,” asked the clerk? “I’ll pay by check, but of course you will want to make sure everything is in order at the bank, so I’ll write the check and you can phone the bank tomorrow. I’ll pick up the ring on Monday.” Monday morning a very teed-off jeweler phoned the man. ” You old fart, you lied… there’s no money in that account.” “I know, but can you imagine what a fantastic weekend I had? –from Sifu Continued On Page 2
