You want to be different,you have to expect people to be curious,it's the nature of the beast.I prefer huge after market motors in my Harleys and get questioned all the time.Tell whoever asks exactly why you choose to do what you do.After all it's your name on the regstration!

Never been a fan of apes...not crazy about the look, and definitely not comfortable for me when I've ridden a few friends bikes that have them...that's why I choose not to have them on my bikes...

But in the 40+ years since I started riding, I've never asked dumb questions of the guys who like 'em...

Now if I had a $ for every ******** who's looked at my lowered Train with the drag bars and LePera seat, and told me that my bike COULDN'T be comfortable to ride...

I just think that's the sweet thing about a harleys, try apes for awhile, try drag bars, whatever happens to trip your trigger at the time. Your not locked into one thing. What other folks think or ask doesn't matter, who's riding the bike anyway.
