You could spend even less and ride a BMX. I guess you get what you pay for

Thanks, yes it is. Love the Softails, don't think I'll ever get rid of it but might park a Softail next to her in the garage next year.

i've never seen it as a money thing..different bikes for different styles...hell, there is only a few thousand between most bikes anyway. when financing it only means 20 bucks or so. i get what i like or can afford and never look up to or down on anybody.....

Yeah had a quick read.... sound like a bunch of **** pilots pissed off because they aren't smart enough to make enough to afford softtails

DeanO
Or maybe smart enough to not spend twice as much as needed to ride a Harley?

Actually I don't either, but it was an easy way to push the buttons of the "whiners" that would come to this thread in defence of themselves

In case any of you guys in the US are wondering how much we get ripped off... whoops, I mean PAY for Harleys downunder, here is the RRP price list in Australian dollars. Bare in mind that the exchange rate is like $0.86 so there ain't that much difference dollar for dollar.

I can understand his frustration...when you need help you look for anything you can get.

Crying about it in the Dyna forum was kind of stupid but then again a Dyna is only an inch or so different than a Sporty.

Hmmmmm maybe this is a trend?
Damn bro,if your head gets any bigger it's gonna blow
How do you get that from what I posted? You can't.

I agree....HD got it right with the Nightster.....they are awesome looking bikes.

I wonder if we might see a Big Twin version of a similar bike for 08?

From what I see the crap between the sporty guys,dyna guys,& the softail guys flaming each other.You seem to be the main basher here.First you bash sportys & now the dyna.Just what is your point.I'd put my beat up ole 87FXRS against your sloptail anyday.Now get off your little pedestal,& realize your no better than anyone else here.
As far as rah having a crush on you,,,,,,not the case,we(mods) get more pm's complaining about you then any other member here.Just though I'd give ya a heads up
