Default Why??????

I have tried to pin this down for years. Maybe the ALL WISE and ALL KNOWNING H-D Community can help. Why do I have such an attachment to this big hunk of iron and steel I ride? It is an inanimate object. But if I have a bad day, it makes it better. If I'm having a good day...it makes it even better! Tried to sell it to buy a new one, can't do it. Too much history between us. Carried my dad's ashes on the back half way across the country, one last ride with my Pop. Clipped a full grown buck mule deer at 62mph (got pics of that one) and all 3 of us rode away from that one. I'm going to heaven cause I've had the hell scared outa me a few times. Thought I was in heaven from the beauty I've seen, all from the saddle of my Dyna.


You hear words like "heart" and "soul" thrown around a lot when talking about Harleys. But in the end, it's just a machine...or is it? Maybe it's the fact that, that something about it, that elusive, hard to put into words feeling is the thing that Harley-Davidson brings to the table that no other motorcycle company can claim. I do know if someone has to ask me why I love my Harley so much, they wouldn't understand the answer!
So come on! What do y'all think? What's your story, your take on this. Is it the truth or am I in line for a trip to the Happy Farm?

Spend less time trying to decipher the meaning and more time riding.

Some things in life defy comprehension, Harley-Davidson is one of those things, so just enjoy the ride and be thank full that you ride a Harley.
