Had BMW K1200GT before I bought my Harley. I haven't back to the BMW board since I changed bikes. I guess I could see if I am banned on the other Board now.

 

 

I have owned many brands for a number of years. I was on Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki forums until I finally went all Harley.

A good number of the VTX 1800 forum gravitated to H-D over the years. The best forum was Kawasaki. The rules were no bashing of any other brand or you faced being banished.

 

Meh, I like my Suzuki motorsicles...just sayin'.

Most likely keepers if I can ever get my still gimpy hip and leg over the seat to ride 'em...................

 

What did you expect, be no different than some one coming on this site and saying how great brand XYZ is. I own couple of different brands of bikes and belong to dedicated message boards for each bike. I do not talk on the crotch rocket site I am on about how much I love my Harley then try and defend that statement....whats the point of doing that.

 

Sounds like an old Suzuki Volusia site I was once a member of.

 

It's my opinion that Harley owners are the most tolerant of all, simply because almost all of us have owned brand X before, or still do.

 

I bleed black & orange, but damned if I don't have a thing for hotrod Kawasakis. I'm of the mindset that it's not what you ride, but that you ride.

Nobody's got the market cornered on hating on different makes & Harley owners are as bad as any.

 

I'm also a member of the Triumph forum, since I own a '14 T100 Bonneville. Most of those guys bash Harley too. There are a few other HD owners.

One thing I like to mention on the "Harley Hate" threads that frequently pop up....

Both bikes have a certain attraction. I get old guys coming up to me when I'm on the Bonne wanting to talk about the Bonne they had back in '72. But the women ALL want a ride on the Harley.

Then I get the "Yeah, but........"
