You knowing me or my reputation is very inconsequential.

You are the one that has taken shots at me personally. I hope it makes you feel good, as it just gives me something to laugh at and to and kill some time! As far as my Ego…well I do have one. Right now the only one who I care if he sees my Rep or Ego is my Grandson. My Brothers know where I stand, my wife knows me and has my back, my girls respect me as their caretaker and most of all DAD. My Grandson needs to see some Ego, someone who will sacrifice for God, Country, Family and Brotherhood. Ride on down and bring your 214, get to know me.

Just goes to show that on the these long, cold, lonely winters, we'll watch anything associated with riding a motorcycle. Of course it was a 1 hour commercial for Harley. So what? It had some riding shots, some scenery, and it had folks riding... It was a relief for me and a good break in the cabin fever I'm sufferin' from. So whether or not I agree with their life style, doesn't really matter... I'm pretty sure I'll never see em, and they don't give a rat's rump what I think. My 214 is still in place, right in the manila folder it came in, and I'm proud to have one! Just for the record.

and those 'magical' saddlebags. they pulled 10 times more stuff outta them during the show than mine would hold. I can see them now loading the saddlebags with what they needed for the scene just before the camera started rolling.

on the up side tho, I do have to admit, seeing that little blonde handle the ultra did my heart some good. my wife watched with me, and it showed her that smaller women can handle bikes larger than the sportster she currently rides.

Yeah, looked like a big infomercial to me too. I'm just glad they didn't play a lot of banjo music in the background. That's annoying.

It was a glorified HD "infomercial" is right. I was expecting more...

Would have been nice to break up each leg of the journey into a full hour show and expanded on the ride and stops. Or maybe not... So what, big deal the guy gets his first 'tatoo".. (Pretty girl though).
