In case you're not joking I'll give you a serious answer. There are probably a million non-Asians riding Asian bikes in the US alone so I would get over that right away. Also, there are many Harley Davidson bikes that have low seating that would make you comfortable. I respect your choice to not follow the crowd. You'll love riding a Harley.

Funny, most guys are asking if they are too big for a Sporty. The answer is, you can fit the bike to your needs. Go to the dealer, get on one and try it out. As for an Asian guy on a Harley, what's strange about that? Harleys are for anyone who likes them.
Hey I am asian and I am thinking of purchasing a Harley as a first bike. I am just curious if its out of the norm to see a asian guy on a harley because I rarely see any at all. I am pretty short at a little above 5'6. Think I would look to small on a sportster iron? what do you guys think of an asian guy on a harley. thanks.

my best friend is a filipino... he rocks a tricked out road king... caught flack one time... this old man was saying all sorts of racist slurs... till i got to the point where old man or not i was going to woop his ***... ryan calmed me down and just let it ride.... turns out the fella was on a old FLH... when he left... THE BIKE WOULD NOT START.. the guy came in asking if anyone knew how to work on bikes... (we where all rocking our shop jackets) Ryan (the filipino) actually went out there and got it running for him... the racist old man, came clean man, thanked him and even gave him a oldschool HD pin off his jacket... i thought that was pretty cool

If someone has an issue, you don't want to be around them on or off the bike. I know what you are talking about in a way. My wife and I have experenced the race "issue" in the past as we are from different ethnic backgrounds. Been married over 25 years and I could give a flying you know what if someone has an issue.

Welcome to the forum. I don't know what asian nation you're from but only the baddest mothers in Korea ride HD...seriously. There is a large faithful following and a ton of them ride full dressers.
