Default Always rode rigids

can't get excited about a soft tail or any bike with rear suspension. Always feels mushy prefer rigid solid and if you are experienced enough don't need no shocks. Just my way. And 13 I'm 61 going on 62 and have no back issues

What he said. And that's a good enough reason.

I passed on the RK, my logic, I got a touring bike I like I would like to get something a little lighter like a new 2018 Heritage if the M8 is in it.

Default Why two Harley's

We wanted a larger bike for long trips. But my first Harley, the Dyna, my new wife fell in love with! when I spoke to her about selling the Dyna she said to me no way that she loved that bike! So, my wife made me keep it! Not many out there like that... That's why she's a keeper!!!


So now I have a bar hopper with my friends and a touring bike for us.

I had 2 baggers and 2 rice rockets.... all 4 were different rides.

I have 7 cars/trucks..... my Porsche is fun, my pickup plows snow.... different vehicles for different needs

My 03 bagger was my best friends bike, he died, it was gifted to me.... that isn't going anywhere

it is also my "around town" bike as it has stock pipes and is easier to ride locally, plus it does not raise the dead when I hop on it.

my 13 Ultra is a monster, it is loud as hell, the stereo can be heard in the next state, it is hard to stay out of the throttle.... great highway bike, not so much for around town.

There are no rice bikes in the stable at the moment, but I am looking at a gently used Kawi C14 to add to the stable.....

Much like I am looking at a C7 vette to replace the Porsche

if we had nothing but Vanilla ice cream and brunettes to choose from, life would be dull.

Hmm, my scooter is longer than my sportsters... and most of my other bikes.

I call it my mini Tour Glide.
