Default Asian Guy on a Harley

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.

If you want a Harley, get a Harley. Doesn't make a difference what your ethnic background is.

Ride whatever YOU want.

Doesn't matter what your background is.

All the other Asian guys on sportbikes might point and laugh but I won't. Many years ago I got a job driving truck...my brother said "only problem you got is you don't look like a truck driver". Never figured out what you had to look like to drive truck or a Harley!

Is this an ethnic joke? I don't give a crap if you're a Martian! Buy a frikin Harley and become a part of the best Brotherhood around.

It's OK, I'm a white guy with a Mazda...we cancel each other out. Just buy it n ride it, no one care's about race or background. As for size I'm only 5'7" and ride a RoadGlide.
