I didn't buy my Harley for "performance'. I bought it for cruising and enjoying myself and the scenery around me. Apparently, this guy can only see one side of life. Too bad. If I had wanted "performance", I would've bought a Hayabusa!
To each their own.

Yeah this was posted a while a go but it would be good for some of the folks who missed to get a chance to read the rant - He makes a few decent points but is way off base on most of points if ya ask me -

Here is is the fixed link by the way - Click me

I saw that his original post was in 1993, however, going to his home page shows recent updates as recent as this month. Out of curiosity, I just HAD to email the guy with my opinion (it was a very tame and non-attack kind of think, asking him why, in this world where everyone has choices, he has to go on the attack against a certain group of people). Am going to see if he even responds - and if he does - will it be a derogatory type of response.

It is sad, though, that someone has so much anger and negativity over something that they have no control over against people that that he doesn't even know.

This guy has a "one point" mind, and worse yet, it took him several thousand words to get it across.

Jealousy is an ugly thing. The rant says a lot more about the guy's personality than anything else. Imagine something you don't like - It might be Kia cars, lawyers, red headed women, homosexuals, chocolate cake, Coors beer, Catholics or whatever (no offense to any of these groups, just using examples)... now would you go to the trouble to type up a huge rant and then take the time to publish it on the web? The guy is an idiot. I bet he's a huge a-hole in real life.
