    Since the purchase of my new open face I've let the beard grow out. I've had a goatie for 12years but now its old school bug catching only. From years of only wearing a fullface ( I had a few times I had bad openfaces that lasted a day then given away) I finally found a openface I like. I've been wondering how many forum harley readers/riders no longer have to worry about buying razors . Lots and lots of people don't like it but I don't care. I thought about buying a scarf thing but decieded not to. Give me a few months and I wont have to zip my jacket up.

    Infidel: My missus made me grow my goatie in the first place so now she's wrapped.

    Beardies comin' outta the closet? Nice one Pastor. I've had a full beard since Oct 2010 but it grew by default following a Rip van Winkle experience... I was crook for yonks and it eventually became pneumonia. I was laid up in bed for nearly two weeks and when I arose I had a full beard (just about). So in true Rodney Rude fashion I thought, "I'll keep this bastard!"

    Now I haven't had a beard for nearly 15 years and it's changed colour a tad since last we were aquainted! My boy reckons it's GREY, but I prefer 'stainless'.  It's gotta have something to do with climate change - perhaps? Yeah, KC will back me on that...

    Anyhoos, as we know, MO-vember follows October and so I got plenty of pats on the back for my efforts(!!) throughout MO-vember(WTF???). But then November became December and December brings... Christmas. And SANTA.  Yep, if I had a dollar for every "Hey mate, ya look like Santa!" I'd have enough coin to uummmmm...  nearly buy a carton!

    Welcome to the HD Forums "Special Interest Group", (SID), The Leauge of the Eminent Soup Strainers & Bug Catchers. Funny about how these bloody things change colour all by themselves....amazin!

    Ha mines a salt and pepper color. Maybe we should start a pole on types of facial hair.

    funny you mentioned this.  i brought the harley, grew a little facial hair, the mother in law (aka dragon) said it looked shocking,  so i told her i wouldnt shave it (trim) till it was near my belly button.  3 months ago now.  i too have that nice silver fleck

    Beardy since 16. It comes and goes... but is definately always at its most fierce during (melb) winter - open face or not!

    Had mine for 40 years. Shaved it off once for a charity event and my kids (who were small at the time) were so scared of the new me I grew it back. It's now short and white and here for good.
