It's not for me either, but I'm pretty sure Harley Davidson is OK with that.

They do make a sound, like a vacuum cleaner power head with a marble caught in it. It can't be silent due to regulations about pedestrians not hearing it coming. Applies to electric cars too which uses a speaker to create a noise at lower speeds, not sure of the threshold.

You must have missed the other 22 threads and 5000 posts condemning it. It's good you stirred the pot because it was starting to calm down a bit.

Yeah with this cold weather and snow hanging around we can't ride, so we need something to whine about.

Happy April Fool's Day! Just 3 or so months away until launch for the LW. I can't wait for demo day so I can take one for a whirl. The line should be pretty short since there is so little interest....

If the dealership give away free hot dogs the line will be around the block.
