You won't catch me dissing the capability of the Ducati Diavel. Sure, they appeal to homo's but by Christ can they get up & boogie with a decent (non-Panini eating) pilot onboard.

They're a nice bit of kit

I don't need any more than that, discourse is wasted if the one you converse with only has one eye and questionable taste

ABs don't lose that often and seldom to the poms.

With all your tears and waffle at the sight of anything mildly insulting to Harleys you just described yourself.
It's almost like you're insecure about your choice of bike or something. They're not THAT bad surely...?!

the only person I knew who had one has sold it and bought another Harley. I tried to get him to buy an Indian and failed

No tears and waffle, in fact quote the waffle so all can see, or shut the fuck up, cause you are starting to sound like a whinging Pom......

ha! Buggered if I'm going to trawl through all your shit. I doubt if you think about it you'll fail to notice the short chain and one eyed view you have about your Harley...or maybe you're in to deep, I know you guys like your chaps and all.

Carry on flinging rocks from from your glasshouse by all means. This is KB after all.

I like and own a number of different makes of bike
i have owned several jap litre bikes and still have one
i have a harley with a porshe motor
those that stereotype harley riders with one stamp reveal their shallow nature
chaps are for gay cunts and cowboys (one stereotype that's true)
glass houses are for gardeners

Questionable taste and 'one eyed'??

Hmmm lemme see, I've owned James, Triumph x3, Honda (yes I admit it), Kawasaki, Yamaha, Suzuki, BMW (old boxer), Moto Guzzi x2. Quite a few of which were purchased new. I've had opportunity to ride HD's since the AMF 1970's bikes, the Evo's when they first came out. In fact the only HD's I havent ridden are a Vrod and the new 'twin cam' big block.....

Not a case of being 'one eyed', It's simply cost Vs performance (engine, chassis, brakes, suspension, reliability) HD do a fantastic job of selling an 'under engineered' product, then dupe the buyers to spend thousand's on 'personalising' their bikes (Screaming Eagle etc) to bring them up to what they should be from the factory. As the video on the HD 'death wobble' show's, there is an inherent 'weakness' in the design, but unlike other manufacturer's who will modify or change the bike, HD just keep on churning it out the door.

If I was so 'one eyed' as you put it, I would never have admitted I liked the XR1200 Sporty's.

My comment on the AB's wasnt about 'losing to the Pom's' It's like a National day of Mourning ANYTIME they lose, plus the obligatory 3-6 months of game, team, coaching staff dissection.

Have you ridden the duke?, although it has the looks of a street fighter, it handles like a cruiser.

Now you mention it I haven't seen any in the rain either and I'm heading the other way (on a European) so get to see lots of the commuters

Good for you. You'd think you'd be a bit more bloody relaxed having a bunch of different ornaments on your lawn like that instead of your angry stick up your arse self, but whatever keeps you entertained.

Not a fan of much of the HD range, but to be fair...
