Triump vs Harley

How many times has the engine been rebuilt? :D:D

My brother has a Chevy that's got 250K+ miles on the clock, but he fails to mention the 5 engines he put into it.

yea i've got a yard brush like that. its lasted 30yrs, its had , 15 new heads and 17 new handles. the same old sweeping brush.:D
 
The bottom end is stock, had the jugs off twice to replace the gaskets. I put new rings in both times, though it still had the original hash marks. She has been a great bike. I just really like the Triumph!
By the way, I spelt Triumph wrong. Triump vs Harley. My bad.
As far as sound systems, I would like to try something. My voice ain't all that good, to say the least.
 
I'm actually thinking of selling my Rocket (in the classifieds at the moment) and getting a Harley. I love my Rocket, but I have no faith in my local service department. I really don't take it in there unless I can't figure the problem out, but when I do take it.. they aren't capable of resolving the problem either and I end up giving them hundreds of dollars for nothing and I'm tired of it. I've given them about $600 for labor over the past couple of years with no results. I'm hoping replacing the spark plug wires will resolve my problem.

There are 4 Harley dealers within an hour of my house, 1 of them 10 mins from where I work. All of them have competent service departments, and the one closest to my work is a really good bunch of people.

No Harley can touch a Rocket performance wise.. but hydraulic lifters reduce maintenance.. there are only 2 plug wires and they don't cost $190.00 and the dealer will have them in stock. There is 1 throttle body.. no synching.. Tires are much less expensive.. etc..
WHAT is the problem with your Rocket ? your complaining you have 3 spark plug wires instead of 2 ? Harley tires are not cheap in fact my friends with Harleys are always complaining about the crazy prices they pay for parts like $70 for a t shirt

for it to be a part it must be one special T shirt !!!! perhaps it is oil absorbent ? or is it special soft so they can wipe the sweat off their face when pushing the bike :)
 
Was sitting at a 7-11 talking with an elderly gentleman who was sitting on a Goldwing. When i asked him why his feet wern't touching the ground he informed me he had motorcycle landing gear. It's worth a google. Motorcycle Landing Gear.
 
Man must REALLY be discouraged with triumph to think owning a hd will cost less than the R3. A crummy dealership can wear ya down tho'.
