Where are all you Harley Haters on this one..

Here's the truth……

One difference I notice is the Harley looks like it's having a seizure with all that vibration.

I don't hate Harley's I don't hate any motorcycles not even scooters (T.C.) just not interested in some. Most of the two or three wheeled stuff I see gets my attention for atleast a few seconds. I think Harley has built some of the best looking motorcycles ever. Have a look at a stock Shovel Head Wideglide or the first Evo Wideglide. Hey I might be biased but have a look at a 1990 Softail with a few minor modifications in my photo's.

It's a pretty bike set up that way. It has one thing the HD does not: power.

We trudge on.

I love Harleys - they keep ****heads off Triumphs

YEP it is a lot of fun passing all the hot rod HDs

I had a 2005 model HD FXDX .. 'the' most trouble-free bike I've ever owned. I really loved that bike , wish I still had it ... along with my R3 and S3

this picture of the black one is way too much Harley look alike for me, on the other hand the vid of the one in show room looks like a cross between the R3 Touring and Tbird apart from the leather bags and is no different to what a lot of us do to our Rockets for long trips and doesn't remind me of a Harley Road King, I don't like the Tank mounted speedo just as I don't like it on the Touring

I don't hate Harley's either .. not real impressed with some of the current crop of HD owners but that certainly ain't the bikes fault.

IM tired of looking at HARLEYS and tired of some of the obnoxious HD owners and all the rolling thunder bull ****

Thats a pretty looking bike. When I start relying on Viagra i might consider looking at one.

.............a fatboy 2000 last of the carburated engines...........

That's the same as my last Harley, did just under 40k miles and never missed a beat apart from a loose coil connection on one occasion. Put high torque Andrews gear drive cams in and loved it.

Prior to the Rocket I've had three H-D's over 14 years and did about 60k between them. Not one breakdown, never leaked oil and never failed to start in all weathers. They weren't quick, didn't handle that well and the brakes were dire - but they got as much attention as the Rocket, almost, and got me there and back. Most importantly they got my Missus on the back of a bike to appreciate the pleasures of motorcycling, couldn't manage it before getting my first Harley.

I would go back to a Harley when I find the Rocket is too much to handle, something that age and/or health will force on me sometime in the future.

Do agree with Art reference some of the Harley rider attitude though, but it takes all kinds - I've met a few Triumph riders with the same. Its not the make but the mentality of the rider that is the problem imo.
