"Oldrookie" - you are absolutely right. I didn't see it myself, but if the MOCO did sell condoms they would negatively impact their latest target consumer base - children. Brilliant observation, sir!

And in reply to "Sporty2003" - What?

I wonder if the "Screaming Eagle Stage III Condom" will come pre-lubed with Syn 3 or dino oil? Maybe they'll call it Really Wide Glide.. heheheh

I totally agree that the MOCO motor clothes are way over priced. I bought a heavy duty leather vest from Yukon Jacks at DELMARVA bike week in Ocean City, MD for $60 bucks. I took it to a patch vendor and bought a black and silver HD bar and shield patch about 12"x12" and had it sewn on by the vendor. That was $30 for the patch and $9 to sew it on. $99 later I had a vest that would be well over $200 at any HD store. I also always try finding HD stuff on ebay before buying from the dealer.

Well I will have to agree with Sporty on this one, everything with a brand name is expensive! I do own three harley items; gloves, leather coat, and a HD stocking hat! Does that make me a RUB? I dont really care what other people may label me as.

I will say that Harley does sell some quaility stuff but you are definetly going to pay for it. Saw a really nice sweatshirt, but the $49.00 price tag made me chuckle.

Gotta figure all that crap made in Asia was done for pennies. Can you imagine the friggin "MARK UP"? Talk about *****! That isn't in any sense business. Flat *** robbery. Screw the Stealer & hello Dick's!

PS: Nothing will keep you warmer then this one piece suit. I'm going on my fourth winter with mine and it is worth its weight in gold. I have seen them about $20.00 cheaper then the following site. http://www.temeculamotorsports.com/e...PIECE_SUIT.htm

Well, I have more Harley shirts than I can wear in a lifetime. Wife has 7 Harley Jackets, Harley boots, Harley everything. We are old and our kids are grown and gone. If you are going to spend it, might as well have fun doing it. Call me a RUB, I don't care, been called worse. Think I will go sit on my Harley Toilet Seat (yes, I really have one) look into my Harley bathroom mirror, and think what a great time I'm having. May even sit at my Harley bar table on my Harley bar stool and make a call on my Harley telephone. God, life is good!
