It's irresponsible not irresponcible. I am so happy for you that you have several bikes. My point is that a lot of the newer HD bikes cost over $15,000. If you are going to buy a motorcycle that costs that much then you should make a decent living. I don't give a **** if someone wants to spend all of their money on a motorcycle, it's just not that smart.

I would never buy a "new" bike. Let someone else take the hit. Plenty of garage queens with 4 - 10k miles on them that haven't seen rain or a cloudy day.

And if there was EVER a Harley that needed a warranty, that bike was it.
You HAD to know how to work on 'em, or you didn't ride 'em.
God I miss the good 'ol days....

Personally, I prefer a bike I can fix without having to take it to a dealer to get the computer reset.

Marcus built "Chump Change" for me & she actually came in at a VERY good price ( don't ask him...he LIKES me & wanted to see ride again). Butchs' ride was a basket we picked up for two grand. I'm pretty sure BOTH ran less than a pair of Sportys.
