I love all motorcycles. I don't like most of the current Harley riders. Most of them are posers, but not all. I have a few Harley buddies that love to ride as much as I do. They don't like to wear Harley gear anymore because of all the idiots that are riding Harley's. I noticed a good way to tell the real motorcycle enthusiasts from the poser :first the real riders most expensive possession is usually their motorcycle. Not all Harley riders are *****heads. The last 20 years has really seen an explosion of anuses riding Harley's.
As far as power. The last two years Harley has dominated the Pro Stock Motorcycle class. In 2012 , the Harley's won 15 of the 16 events. If you look close,the playing field
Was not level. Harley's had an advantage. That is what money can buy.
