Oh heck yes! I have a friend who is an avid RD rider and kind of a go-to guy for people working on them. His RD is now an old school cafe racer and is notorious. He’s an older guy with lots of crazy stories. He was immortalized in the movie Caffeine and Gasoline: Evolution of the American Rocker (I think it’s on Tubi). If you watch it, look for the scene with “Rocker Ronnie” about 20 minutes into the movie.
