Cheers

I've been riding a Honda Shadow VT 1100c for the past year. Yesterday I got bit by the Harley Davidson marketing bug, and bought a 2007 Heritage Softail Classic. My thoughts on this bike after reading many posts here on this forum.

1. Can you hear every moving part in the engine while cruising? Oh Hell Yes!

2. Is the bike hotter than hell while sitting at a stop light? Oh Hell Yes!

3. Does 5th gear sound different than all the other gears? Oh Hell Yes!

4. Is the price tag of a Harley a bit expensive? Oh Hell Yes!

My conclusion: It is the SWEETEST bike I have ever owned!

Cheers,

DJK
