Man, I'm surprised no one mentioned this one yet...us Sportster owners hear it enough..."isn't that a chick bike" or "that's not a real Harley".

Myth: Shovels are reliable
Truth: Shovels are junk. But they sure look & sound good!

Myth: Harleys will leave you stranded.
Truth: I have owned 18 Harleys,from Flatties to Shovels to Evos to Twinkies,and not 1 has ever left me stranded. EVER! The ONLY bike that ever stranded me NO LESS THAN 4 TIMES was my Goldwing.

Myth: Harleys get you hot chicks.
Used to be very VERY true back in the day. A Harley was the #1 poonmobile. Nowadays, any chicks a Harley gets you looks like my grandmother! It's the sportbikes that get the babes, although I can't for the life of me figger out why. The riders are douchebags.

Myth: Harleys,parts, & repairs are expensive.

Haha i thought you could use a good laugh!

Myth: Due to ever-more stringent EPA regulations, Harley-Davidson will be forced to re-design it's engines to to be all water-cooled beginning in (insert model year here).

Fact: H-D will begin producing water pumpers when it's customer base indicates an overwhelming preference for them (not anytime soon).
