When I was a kid I had model trains (Lionel I think). I always preferred the Steam Engines to the sleek Diesel locomotives . . . . That's why I have a Harley . . . . nothing wrong with Diesel Locomotives . . . It's just that the blend of Art and Machine is so much more perfect with the Steam Engine and the Harley. Call it soul if you like . . . .

I own a Rocker, love it. But I will happily ride beside a Fury any day. It isn't something I would buy personally, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have its place. Depending on someone's financial situation, etc., they might be right for some people. And some guys don't seem to mind the chromed plastic. I dunno, most of the time I am just happy someone has something with two wheels to come for a ride. Plus, it makes me look more badass on my Harley, ha ha ha...

That being said, I wouldn't ride beside a guy on one and pull up to any local clubhouse either, lol...

lol... Well I was more disappointed in his choice for a mistress. Some guys need to go elsewhere for whatever the reason might be, I just thought he would have done it with a Playboy model or someone that made a guy stop and say DAMN... Well I guess he did but it was the wrong DAMN...

Do Harley guys troll Honda forums? Probably not, Harley guys are not trying to prove or justify anything to themselves or anyone else and they don't care what Honda riders think. Obviously, this Fury rider cares a great deal what anonymous Harley guys think. Why?

.... well at least till they saw us on the real deal, we pulled up at a watering hole as they were riding passed, their body language said it all...shoulders & heads down and eyes straight ahead...no eye contact

there were other bikes there, all different types from custom crotch rockets to nortons, a real nice BSA and naturally HD's

...if there was any substance to their bikes they would have not looked the way they did, and if anything stopped and had a drink.... but no off they buzzed with their tails between there legs

Now this isnt a bash against the bikes, or people's choices as I'm sure they ride and handle fine and have the honda reliability, I love honda(I even drive a 4 wheel one)

but if these guys didnt understand what the soul thing is about that is attached to a Harley before, they certainly understood it from that point on....
