Amateurs talk speed, Veterans talk handling. I have a fat-bob and yes, it's fast. I also own a Hayabusa. I like fast.
My buddy's wife owns a 1200 sporty and I guarantee she is a better rider than me.
Drags, I win. Twisties, she wins. Probably still wins in the twisties with me on the busa.

Just tell him how cool he sounds.....hehe no...I agree with telling him to grow up. Or ask him is his dick that small that he has to make up for it this way. Okay, one more.....just tell him...."Oh yeah, well my bike can stop faster than yours. So what's your point?"

I ride an 09 Fatbob and my previous bike was a 08 1200 sportster custom. Both are great bikes and why should anyone be rambling on about whose is bigger and who is badder. As long as you enjoy what you ride, why should you let some jerk with obvious insecurities rattle your cage. YAWN.......
