Maybe, just maybe that's why Harley makes so many different models!

I'm a hater when it comes to all of the bikes besides Harley Davidsons, but there are some HD models I dislike, give out a very limited/opinionated detail about an particular bike and keep my goddamned mouth shut afterwards.

Harley rules,

Thorey

Only a Harley is a motorcycle. I don't hate motorcycles but I do hate pretenders.

Who cares what others think...it what you think that matters. It is your bike.

I hate anyone who hates my bike! LOL
That being said, I love all bikes, some are just uglier than others!
And we have ALL ridden something UGLY at least once in our lives!

Yep, I remember that one drunken night at the country bar. It still haunts me to this day. I swore I'd never pick up anything like that again.

Default Lmfao...

I started a thread earlier today...I'm probably goin to get blasted for this but come on guys the thread asked to share experiences as to why you dislike certain bikes and not just give opinions on why you hate on certain bikes...

again for example I can't see myself on a rocket because I'm vertically challenged and at every stop light I'm on my tiptoes or have to lean to the left with anything 1000cc's or more....

so real experiences please...not just opinions...it's human nature not to read the whole thread and just read what we want to read...
