Yep, once you add an FI tuner, oil cooler and cooling fans if you ride in heavy traffic...

Next time he opens his yap, remind him about a few things, V-Rod (water cooled), what's wrong with belt drive, quiter than a chain, longer lasting, virtually maintenance free and lighter than shaft drive.

How about the other features, fuel injection, triple disc antilock brakes, throttle by wire, cruise control.

What about buying a product assembled in the US, putting our fellow Americans to work and fueling our own economy by creating wealth here instead of overseas.

He's just trying to justify getting rid of his bike.

Plain and simple. He's trying convince himself he doesn't want what he can't have.

The Harley or a set of *****. I LOVE my wife. But if she ever said its me or the bike, I'd have room inside the house for another lift.

+1, True story ..... back in the late 70's, got laid off, was looking at losing the house due to lack of funds. Ol' lady said we could always sell the bike to catch up on the payments. Long story short, in 1987 I still had that bike and sold it to buy a different one. The ol' lady on the other hand had been gone since 1980 ......
