My '05 E-Glide Classic just turned 60,000 miles - nothing but oil and filters. Never been in for those regular service things, just do oil and airfilter and that's it. The bike's running great and it's my daily commuter.
Even better.. they now have this nice concept that even comes with Air Conditioning, heating and rain cover. Real nice for those looking for ultimate comfort. It's called a "car".
It is possible that he was wanting a good honest opinion. Almost all metric boards are very basis- lots of bashing toward Harleys. I like my Harley; ride it lot more than my other 2 bikes. Is there a perfect bike, no. I have been riding over 43 years and have owned almost every make there is, including a norton and bsa. I do not look down on anyone that does/not ride harleys. There are most likely just a few-maybe-that has more miles in the seat than I do. I ride between 30,000 to 45,000 a year. Every year. I do not like to ride in a car or truck. I truly enjoy the frredom that my bikes gives me. I paid my dues for our freedom and now I will reap my harvest. Freedom is not cheap and I paid the price honorabley and without regret. All I can say is Lets ride.
