You gotta check out this website.

This dude has a serious problem, or it's just meant for entertainment?

I'm thinking.......

The guy is a racist. If he just spent more time out riding his sport bike and having fun on it, he wouldn't have to be sitting in his basement typing on a keyboard. I don't care if you ride an American Harley, or a Japanese Hayabusa or a British BSA or even a Russian Ural. Go out and ride and feel the breeze.

He is old news. I saw that site a couple of years ago and relixed he had a bug up his a** about Harley Davidson brand.

Exactly! To all comments.
I got a good laugh out of it, but also agreed with much of the argument or economics of it all.
I even emailed the guy without being offensive and received an inoffensive reply.
But somthing tells me I never should've went there.
I've been a Harley enthusiast for a long time and wanted to someday own one.
All of the technological ramblimgs made sense to me, but it's not that important.
All the talk about Harley being a Pagan religion was a bit over the top for me.
But I could see where some would get that impression with the history of Harley-Davidson being represented mostly by a tough guy image....the long-haired, weather beaten, tattooed riders rumbling around disturbing the peace.
And Harley-Davidson relies on this "faithful" to support their marketing scheme?
I never really thought of it that way.
But it's obvious that those aren't the only people who ride a Harley.

I am not a biker....by any sense of the word. I'm a tinkerer. I've always heard that Harleys are not very reliable....leak oil...vibrate bolts loose...make the rider uncomfortable etc...etc. To me, that's perfect! But to some, that's stupidity and just subscribing to an image. I think it's all a preference really.
I wouldn't be ashamed to ride a foreign made bike though. I've owned a few back in the '80s, but just stopped riding......trying to extend my life a bit. But I've always dreamed of having the biggest rumbling contraption that Harley-Davidson builds.
For me, it's not a lifestyle, just an occasional jaunt down the road.

I like alot of bikes and have ridden some sportbikes and foreign made cruisers. I just like the heavier bikes more. I feel too exposed on a lightweight for some reason. Speed and technology is not what it's all about for me.
I would even consider a Honda Goldwing if I wanted to go long distances just for the comfort level.

I think the Harley-Davidson argument is legitimate, but overstated. People will continue to subscribe to whatever makes them happy regardless of who's personal opinion tries to discourage it. I'm still in love with a rumbly V-Twin no matter what.
And I don't put down anyone who rides a "crotch-rocket". I actually like those too!

Ok for what it's worth. I've been riding for 44 years started on a Vespa scooter at the age of 12 and haven't been with out a bike since then. Currently own a Honda Shadow 750 and looking to upgrade to something for long trips probably a Gold Wing.

As to Harley's well I've known a lot of riders and seen a lot of bikes and from what I've seen and been told from those riders are that their bikes spend a lot of time in the shop, leak oil like crazy and are like dogs, they like riding in the back of pickups a lot

Had a great time two years ago the company I work for test's tires and they had to test motorcycle tires. Had 3 Honda Gold Wings to run and I was one of the riders. Put 30,000 miles on them in 6 months, 500 miles a day 5 days a week in temperatures from 35 degrees to over 100. Loved it and never had a break down.

I have a Yamaha VStar Cruiser. I love my bike, but plan on some day owning a Harley. Actually right now is a great time to buy a used Harley. With the economy so bad people are selling them left and right. My main problem with Harley is they are over priced compared to all their competition. The Honda VTX is a well made bike and looks like a Harley knock off. I see alot of those on the road.

I've never cared for the crotch rockets. I see mostly youngster riding them. I just think they are very uncomfortable. I don't get caught up in the need for speed. I just want a bike that is comfortable and reliable.

Hey Cornell, if you want comfort and performance, try BMW. Great road bikes. Goldwings are good too, but they remind me of a two wheeled car. You can't see any of the mechanical bits.

Actually, I've been checking out the Triumph. (British)

A cruiser type bike called the Rocket III.

Check out the 2300 cc 3 cylinder engine.

This is beautiful.

That's the thing about motorcycles. You would own 10 if you could. Victory has some nice bikes too.

Ooooh, inline three. Nice! Didn't think about the "trumpet". Great bikes. Are they still made in the UK?

I suppose they are still made in the UK. I haven't studied too much into it. I just liked what I saw on the homepage, and the specs on that inline 3!

I don't know why I have to be different, but for around $16k brand spankin' new, it sounds like they have Harley-Davidson beat on price, performance, and looks!
To my eyes anyways....

I'm glad I didn't already tattoo half my body.
