Ever notice how these now turned A-Hole Harley riders who were your really good friends drop you like a rock if you drive a metric bike? Ok time to find a new friend..

Jim Jones must have worked for Harley at one time.
Good Luck..

All my X-wives told me I was an A-Hole before I got the Harley.

Not really, most of the Harley people I know are pretty down to earth ordinary people. Actually the only two really flaming aholes I have met were Goldwing riders who both and on separate occasions went way out of their way to attack my Sportster (1) and my Lowrider (2). So, if there would be any correlation on what bike you rode I would have to say you don't always meet the nicest people on a Honda. If my friends ditch me because I ride a Triumph now then f**k them they weren't my friends to begin with and did me a favor.

Same here, I could give a Chit what you ride (Long as its not a Can Am), if you want to ride with me come on and lets go. Its all about the ride, not the merchandising.

Yep, I even know people who became A-holes after buying a Harley shirt or window sticker.
