Just stop letting your Harley on the net and it will be just fine.

Should I just stay home?

Yep, and run your 13 off of a cliff cause you're a

drive slow and drink plenty of water, that way you can mark the bikes territory for it when you stop so it doesn't feel so inferior to the 2014 you parked beside...and driving slow will make it easier to spot the 14's that have slid off in a ditch after slipping on all of the coolant it puked.

And remember to be nice to those who are riding those 2014 death traps. Stop and offer to **** in the reservoir when you see them stopped on the side of the road. And don't forget Christmas cards to put through the mail slots when you see them parked somewhere, thanking them for being the beta testers for MoCo

LOL! Man, it is winter, isn't it???

Thank you to the OP and a few of the others for the morning laugh...

Some of you others need to lighten up and recognize sarcasm!

It's 20 below zero here. I haven't been on the bike for two months. I wish I had the problem of wondering if was going to be too hot on my 300 mile ride today. lol.
