I do not see a problem with it. Screw it lets ride is pretty generic and should relate to everyone, not just Harley Riders.
We all know that Harley's can cost a bit of ging.
There are plenty of threads telling people to start out on a Rice Burner before going to a Harley. This way you can learn on something that if he gets scratched so what.
Perhaps this person wants a Harley, but can not afford it.

We had a Rice Burner before we got ours.
You way of thinking is just promoting a Harley Snob attitute.

I wondered where this moved to, the point I was trying to make was that the same guys that run Harley riders down for driving over priced bikes and spend too much on clothes and accessories are the same ones that that will modify something as simple as a bumper sticker to fill their needs.

We could all put Kawasaki's theme on our bikes, "rediscover your obession with chasing the horzion".

Second thought, what the hell does that mean? The reason he has a Harley sticker is because Kawasaki has lame sayings. We should be flattered.

I think Kawasaki needs to take note. Not us, not H-D. Here is a metric rider that found what makes his statement produced from another MoCo. I think the foreign MoCo needs to start hiring better advertising people. I mean, hell Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha all have a product that looks, sounds (well sort of), like a H-D. Might as well copy the whole thing.

Imitation is the best form of flattery.

Yes they need to offer, toilet paper, beef jerky, candy bars, tea bags, soap just like the Harley dealer, that will make them a power house in the world.
