I want it
So, I stop at the dealer the other day after a nice little benefit ride and I take look at the showroom floor and why do I let myself get hypnotized by that beautiful bike? I mean I see it in my mind with the scarlet red and black two tone and I am in love. Any body got $25k to lone me? Why are HD's so DAMN expensive?

Steel frames, engines designed 10 years ago(based off a design from the turn of the century), crappy susupension, and one hell of an image.
I would go jap for a cruiser.

Give me the $25k, I will kick you in the balls and let you work on my bike. I will buy you a H-D patch so you can get the full experience too.
Hey GM

eh not said properly. I think HD and metric tour bikes are all similarly priced. --- that's better, nicer anyways. LOL Last edited by wildchild; 08-28-2009 at 01:58 PM.. |

Are leaning toward cruiser rather than sportbike at this point?

I'm really looking at the Victory Vegas, but also like the Harley Night Train and Deuce. I have bids in on eBay right now, just trying to get a deal on a used one for the amount of money I have saved up. I may just wait till spring (or very late winter), but if I get the right deal, I'll go ahead and buy now. |
