Thats up there with this one...A few years back my boss wanted to get back into a bike. He had rode many years back on a Honda. Anyway a neighbor of his has an Ultra for sale at a great price. He wouldn't buy it because it had 12k on the odometer and wass just too high mileage.

I went for a nice ride on Saturday.
I stopped for a coffee at a small deli in westchester, about 50 miles or so north of where I live.
I was sitting out front drinking it when a dude came up to me and said "nice bike I really like that"
I said thank you and asked him if he rode. He said yes, and went on to tell me how he races with some team, has two built race motor gixxers, etc etc but that he really loves the look of a Harley, even though he'd never buy one.
I bit.
"why not, if you like them so much wats stopping you?"
"I'll tell you why, this is what gets me. You walk into a HD dealership and there's all these beautiful bikes lined up and each one of them has a puddle of oil underneath it."
I just nodded in agreement and he left not too long after that. No sense entering a discussion like that
