I've got a friend that dumped his '03 anniversary model Heritage in a gravel parking lot. It was 9 months before he got one of the special tank badges. He was able to ride it but you know how we are about things like that.

At my age I'm gonna need more than a specific brand of bike to help me in that respect!

I ride Harleys because they're more fun than anything else. If Triumph still made the Trophy I'd be riding them but since they're not.......I'd like to get a Moto Guzzi V11 Sport at some point for a play bike but my decker is a keeper..

The moment I rode one I was hooked. Nothing else feels like an HD, at least, nothing I've personally ridden. I even tried a Kawi in between my HDs, so that I could have something cheap to ride to tide me over. Didn't make a full season. Not a damn thing wrong with it either, plenty comfortable, powerful, functional, it got the job done. And yet...

For some people, it just fits...

Great machines, American brand, solid ride, original styling, best rallies, chicks dig Harleys and the men that ride them.

E-Bay sell the stickers everyday. But a broken gear for a two year old bike 6 months for the part not the work just a part.

I never saw a motorcycle that I didn't like, some more than others. I just like Harleys best of all. Why? I don't know. Why do some people like green and others blue. Why do some like wine, others beer. Just because, I suppose. .......... Makes my head hurt just to think about it all.

Back in the my day I like the V-Max but as people bought them. They never made replacement parts for there Japans Bikes. So many of my freind had to have a couple bikes just to go riding. I use to keep five jap bikes to have a bike for the road every day. Now I have only two Harley for the same thing. Is this better or not.
