For the same reason no matter how hot your wife, you still want someone elses! Its natural to want what others have.

I think when looking at your own bike you see the things that still need to be done.

When you are looking at other peoples bikes you see the things that are already done.

Thats why mods are never ending

HD loves you... You bike is yours. I have seen some really nice bikes out there, but to me, none of the compare to mine, because its mine. You should be proud of what you have, and if you aren't then fix it til you are.

Ride with pride...
