We can laugh at them and joke about them....But the guy that owns the bike will still think he has the coolest bike on the road.
It's still a somewhat free country, people still have the right to have poor taste.

What does your bike look like? Maybe I would consider it to be ugly."

Default Fun to Ride Hard

Big Wheels? Does it make it MORE fun to ride? Maybe if you like having folks LOOK at you.

I never really had that problem or those insecurities. Seems like there are a LOT of folks today that need to shock others to get their status in order...

Sorry. When I was young and poor back in the early 60s all I could do was strip off excess weight on a Harley, maybe rake it a bit for more highway stability and then basically ride it hard as H*ll. Still following that exact same formula. It makes a FUN bike.

Here's MY bike. Is it ugly? I really can't decide. Some days I think it is ugly and other days it looks all right.

But the important thing to ME is that it functions beyond belief. The suspension is all revalved, the shield is great at 80, it is comfortable to the extreme and so much FUN to ride I HATE to get off and park it.

I own other bikes including sport bikes and sport tourers. And when I want something lighter and quicker they are super fine. But my Harley is the most satisfying BIG bike I have ever sat on. BIG is neat when it can really dance the dance.

Even if I don't have a funny looking wheel on it. Maybe BECAUSE I don't have a funny looking wheel on it.

My two cents.
