Default Hey there

Hello EVerybody

My name is Lonny, and It's great to be a part of such a huge community.

I'm thinking about buyinga bike, not sure if I'm going for the Harley Models or the Honda. Still have to decide what kind of style I'm interested in.

Welcome. Hang around here long enough, and you will justify buying the Harley. Take the time to do some searches and read past posts comparing the two makes. Then, go ride them. If you want me to save you some time, go buy the Harley. However, researching what you want and buying what suits you is the best thing you can do.

Ride the Harleys, and the Hondas will not compare. You just have to choose your style. Anywhere from light(ish) sportys to the cushy tourers
