    Oh it's all about impressing women is it? Don't know that any women are actually impressed by a 1340cc penis extention.

    You don't think a 1450cc penis is impressive?

    But to be fair, I think that the fact a guy can drop $60,000 on a weekend toy has a bit to do with it.

    ....errr that be a 1450cc extension, and yup for quite a few THAT is all it IS about.
    Just as well some of us have a decent bike to make up for what *they* may be lacking. Tho I have been and am still very lucky in that department

    well I guess you must be nice on occasions then? Or then again, maybe its been a while for you huh?


    anyway back to the thread... I LUV my Harley, cos it has the heart of a Harley and the feel of a sportsbike and the Passion of a Buell!
    And I use it whenever I want a buzz of the 2 wheeled variety

    Right on the money there! It's the size of the wallet that impresses most women(and guys for that matter) I must be really odd then if I'm impressed by the down on his luck nobody who still enjoys life without feeling the need to try to impress with "image".

    1450cc penis does nothing for me

    huh?

    At the risk of being accused of actually sticking to the question here............I have owned my Harley for about 6 months and found it to be the most comfortable bike I have ridden in my 29 years of mc ownership. Yes it is not as fast as a jappa sportsbike and may not handle like italian bikes ( Ive owned three Italian bikes and they arent all that either by the way) but as a bike for a good cruise on a weekend with my wife on the back or for a longer sedate trip (120 kmh) I would not have any other bike.

    Yes there are some posers riding Harleys but you get that with all bikes....same as a sportsrider in full race leathers going round the bays...oooo gonna get my knee down...pfft..

    The downsides of owning one are: higher insurance premiums, takes so damn long to clean all the chrome after a ride, the high cost of accessories if you go down that track.

    Upsides: fun to ride..isn't that why we own motorcycles?

    Anyway just my two cents worth.....
    Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead
    Do not walk ahead as I may not follow.
    Do not walk beside me as the path is narrow
    In fact FU*K off and leave me alone

    And the bling of the bikes themselves.
    And the way they sound.
    And how comfortable they are (some are for passengers too)
    And how they make you feel when riding one
    And all the nice doohickeys and cool clothes - best boots ever thanks lou.
    And the attitude
    And the service
    And quite a bit more but I can't be arsed.

    And the fact that if you buy one Maurice will be your friend for life.

    Your special friend.

    I really have nothing against harlyes, or hondas. Just kawasakis.

    Just like Billy Connolly's clown pants, HDs make excellent arsehole detectors.

    What standard off the shop floor model was that? And were there any bends?
