Good reply,You put him in his place,I'd do the same.I used to ride metrics,always wanted a HD but didn't want to spend over 20k on a bike till I wanted a touring bike,compared them all-price wise,wound up with an Ultra,money well spent,but would never bash another brand and will never "BUY" anything except an HD.

I have a friend who hates Harley's and takes every chance he gets to express his opinion on the product. Am I the only guy here who actually takes this type of behavior as a compliment? It's nothing more than bike envy. I just grin at him and shake my head and agree with as much sarcasm as I possibly can.

check out the thread "Why do I hate Goldwings?"

People who buy them have to justify their purchase by slamming HD every time they get a chance. " they leak oil and break down all the time"

They just don't get it .....

HAH, that's awesome! I love it because it's absolutely true. I could care less what anyone else rides - to each his own. But to start busting on a brand or those who ride it is completely moronic.

Kudos to you for showing how much class some of us Harley riders/owners have - nicely done!

Great response OP! Even if it isn't "entirely" true.

Funny - you mention that - even faced with the fact that Harleys can require more maintenance, there is definitely a brand loyalty that no other manufacturer can hope to obtain.
I always WANTED a Harley! Can't say the same about another brand.
Sure I've drooled over specific models - but I've never said I have to have a Honda.
