My God man, couldn't you have knocked him unconscious and dragged him away before you even walked through the door? . $38,500 is 3 motorcycles not one......and for a 2 wheel farm tractor with fancy paint like an Electra Glide. Perish the thought!

The perfect bike to visit you on during bike week.
Different hits for different trips.
I sat on a coupla Hardley's just today. They are the local Triumph dealer also and I was in for some Scrambler parts. I sat on one bike and it let out a scream like I sat on a baby. The parts guy says that in about twelve seconds the bike was going to scream like a banshee if I did not remove myself from it.
I would buy a Harley in a heartbeat if they made a sensable seat to peg to bar relationship. If I want my feet up on a coffee table couch potato riding stance I'll ride my big screen television. Give me a V-Strom ride with old school aire cooled twin and I could sell myself on entertaining the notion. FXLHTJSVT spells nothing but image.
I do hear that they help in getting girls that have "Live to ride" tattooed on the small of thier backs. Least that is what some blue butt chap told me.
Maddog, sounds like you got the better DNA from your tree.

Sounds like you got a first hand look at a CVO model...they have every do-dad, bobble and farkle in the catalog attached to a 110 cubic inch vibrating status symbol. Been there, done that....when a Harley is what you want, NOTHING else will do!!

Mike...you are laughing about your bro wanting a Harley, and you love riding twisty roads and are moving to Florida!!

My neighbour calls it go and buy an ego. LOL

Why do you think they have cute sales girls.... middle aged men with disposable cash maybe??
The local HD shop is just next to the motorway here, almost every week they have a bbq on with some hot chicks in mini skirts and FM boots.
I normally pull a wheely when I go past and see the bbq tent up, the girls love it, the zz top wanabees not so....

All I can say is I love them all I had italian ,a 08 duke a2010 rc8 and now a 2011 RC8R with everything a track weapon for sure
I also have my harley which I love and will never sell .It's a 100 year model came with lots of chrome got it 03 it has never left me stranded I have spent $200.00 in repairs in all those years .If you want to go on rides for a week or two there great .They all have their job and they do it well

If you want to fo fast and drag your knee then go some where else I love it because my wife and I can ride in comfort dealers every where always near a main hwy face it they got it down

I got my RC8R for the track and it is at home there with all the things I have done it's at 26k now I did not pay that because I am a dealer but with 158 hp to the rear forged wheels and slicks it's a blast.

If you want to see the country in style and know you are part of a brother hood a HD is good.
if you think you can rip up a canyon then your not gonna like it.
The CVO's are the way to go they have everything all you do is ride it you don't have to spend a dime because the really do come with the catalog
if you did what they did on your own you would spend 10-15k
It is what it is they sell a ton of them all you have to do is go to any run you will see the money.
Yes they are heavy they don't have all the tech but a honda gullwing is more money those are nice too but they are not a Harley

Still waiting for the cute sales rep photos...



For me HD are a good looking bike to have...in a corner of the living room.

Can't like the riding position, can't forget they don't turn, don't brake etc

But we can't all like orange
