Sold a Harley for a jap bike ? HMMMMM , maybe he got laid off , or lost his job , hate to hear stuff like that but maybe he had to sell and bought rice on a limited budget , just a thought.

I respect people, not machines. If a Suzuki floats his boat, good luck to him.

And for what it's worth...my '98 Vulcan 1500 Classic ( http://www.jamesgang.net/bikes_ejvulcan1500d.asp)

Was your Vulcan 1500 hard to get into second? Mine was but I think it was the positve neutral finder acting up.

Its fine to ride metric or whatever, but why do some go so far out of their way to make them look like a Harley? Never heard anyone say, "I bought this Road King to learn to ride then I'm gonna get a Goldwing"!

RE: Bountyhunter
Who knows? And frankly....who cares? I don't mean that flippantly, but rather as a note that it's up ta each of us to decide what makes our ride enjoyable. I have my own (private) thoughts as to BH after some of the items he promoted, but either way, it's up to him to decide what he wants. Hell, I was off HD for over 30 years - rode a lot of different brands in between - but ultimately it kept calling me "home". Some folks will never understand it - and that's fine - but the thump of a Harley has always been a siren song to me. Some folks talk about how it won't manuever, and to be sure it's not a crotch rocket - but I can promise you that I've already shown a few local sports bikes that a Harley CAN take 'em in the twisties. In the final analysis, it's seldom the bike that's the limiting factor - more often, it's the rider. An' thar's jest sumthin' satisfyin' in cruisin' by one of 'em in the twisties with the stereo blarin' out some old rock....
