The Wide Glide's not for everybody; that's why HD makes the Low Rider...




Seriously? I go to every demo day that every dealer, HD and metric has; I ride everything I can get my hands on; I'm not an HD owner, I'm a motorcyclist that happens to like HD's. The Kawi and Honda dealer know my first name. I ride the hell out of their bikes. I've got a real love for the Ninja 1000 with panniers; I'd never sell my Wide Glide but may just add a Ninja 1000 for those high speed runs I take with the sport bike/sport touring group I ride with...
I think they may have been talking to the OP, Tin...

Sorry, no, I get the Wide Glide thing. I was asking the OP what he's currently riding.

Yea, I get it... now... Mchad set me straight. I thought you and Ikelove were responding to me; aahhh, the joys of trying to use a forum to communicate. Some days the frequency gets lost

Yea, seriously. My question was to the OP, not you. Not sure why you feel the need to take a question I directed to another person, the OP, and use it as springboard into a soliloquy.

What is happening here?
Timeout.... this is forum, not personal conversation. Calm your nerves and cut the grand standing. People will talk... mistake or not ... deal with it or roll out. play nice

Right on man, unless you are dead set on a Fat Bob (nothing wrong with that, if that's what you are into, we don't judge [humor really]). But if not, ride everything in your budget, lots of nice rides out there.
I'm also in the WG corner..damn fun bike to ride.
