Personally, I think Harleys are overpriced junk, appealing more to those who need to buy a self image then those who really appreciate riding.

Your opinion of Harleys is well known, but I bought mine because I love to ride and it fit me to a "T". I don't have a self image problem and you're not a phsychiatrist. Actually I sense more envy in your Harley bashing than dislike...;)

Hey Mark...   :D

For some bikers, the Harley is the perfect choice.   There are some good things about them, but I still think its more about attitude and appearance then the joy of riding.   Just my opinion of course.
