well I went over to buds harley davidson today and test rode a street bob , a night rod special and a soft tail standard. they are all cool bikes but when all the smoke cleared I still havent found a bike I like as much as I do my sportster except for the e-glide standard , I could live with one of those as a second or third bike for long rides with the wife when she dont want to ride her own. maybe I will look for a used one 5 or 6 years old.
