Guy pulls up on me with a brand new super clean Road Glide 114 M8. His partner pulled up behind us.
He says nice bike and I say yours as well. Then he says what you got a 103 or a 96. I say 96 with a Cam.
He then gets really proud and says good luck keeping up.
I let him and his buddy take the lead to see how bad they were. The first sweeper we got to I went around them like they were standing still. The rest of the road was a mix of fast sweepers and some semi tight corners. I couldn’t see them in my mirrors after just a few minutes.
I stopped to get gas in town and as I was done fueling they pulled in.
I said where’d you guys go... They responded damn you can ride the hell out of that bike.
I responded, “ Harley sales a lot of stuff but Big ***** isn’t one of them!
