They think like that over on the Ninja forum,yes I have a Ninja I picked up also. Those douches started a thread about Harley riders and the gear or "lack" of and a couple people really seemed butt hurt over everything Harley. I called them on it but I'm the douche for calling them out I guess there :lol: Even though my Ninja gives you a huge thrill it will never take the place of my Sportster....and I actually am looking to trade or sell it for another Sportster to make a springer out of

So i advertised my brand new japanese bike and sold it for $2,000 (it had 3,000 miles on it so it wasn't worth much anymore) and some fruity looking guy on a crotch rocket with hi top sneakers bought it. Then i went and bought my harley andit has been fun ever since. So frankly speaking...harleys are nice bikes but the whole fudgepacker thing with the honda and yamaha guys was just a real turn off.
lmfao!!!!!

Well I wear leather and steel toed boots and goggles. I hate stock exhaust and I LOVE the smell of raw fuel in the morning!!!!!!!!!

Default Buy American

Just an old baby boomer with stuborn notions about supporting the American worker. I find my loyalty waning with every new outsourced part!

I will not buy an outsourced Harley wanna be built mostly now for the EPA. When the assembly goes overseas many will question their loyalty to the brand.

oh goody, moco now coming in here and doing surveys.........

I'm not particularly loyal to any brand of bike, but I have owned more Honda's and Harley's than anything else.
Harleys are good for sneering at metric riders, and picking up loose sleazy women. They also scare old people.
If I was to go out today and buy something else, it would prob be a Victory Cross Roads. I have a feeling Vic will be around for quite a long time themselves, and I like the fact they are almost entirely made in the 50 states unlike our Harleys.

I'm not loyal to any brand. I prefer American and European bikes because they have more character, soul and better resale value than Jap bikes.
