You have my condolences, then. ;) Actually, I'll admit, Harley's
are really nice looking bikes. But their track record for
reliability and performance don't look too good. It's pretty sad
when my 1995 Honda Shadow (600cc) can dust a Harley Sportster 1200.
His bike was mighty nice looking, and it sounded tough; it just
didn't go anywhere very fast. But I'm sure I'll probably be ticking
off all the Harley fans with this message. As far as I'm concerned,
a bike is a bike is a bike, whether it's a crotch-rocket, a Harley, a
Japanese cruiser, a homemade job, or a friggin' scooter. Well, okay,
maybe not the scooter...
