Default Overated is 'Overated'

Here is the bottom line: Harley Davidson makes the most solid, balanced, and good looking motorcyle in America. Period, end of story. I've ridden several different metrics, Hondas, kawasakis, and even a Victory (used to own a Vic...until the 3rd gear decided to disappear).....and none compare to Harley Davidson I used to own, or my current ride, an '01 FLHR...So why don't you get out your metric ruler and your ventilated Joe Rocket motorcycle jacket and get the p!ss off our forum, you TROLL!

BTW, finally got hold of a digital camera....here are some photos:
