Harley Davidson is the best

They oughta be the most reliable because they've been producing the same engine pretty much for 70 years

Are we really going to touch on this again? How many more threads do we need about this topic. I've expressed my opinion on this matter several times. It's just that my opinion. But you all seem to harp on it endlessly. If the corvette suddenly went to a 4cylinder turbocharged model, I wouldn't be c...

I kinda figured I would be thrown out of this forum for what I said. I admit I was angry when I typed it cause I just experienced being picked on and harrassed cause I ride a scooter. I have no friends and I just needed someone to talk to, to vent my anger, I was seeking someone that experienced th...

It's funny. You guys act like my opinions are so far fetched in the motorcycle world. They obviously aren't thus the ops original post. Hell I sit at work everyday with a guy who rides a Big Twin tourer who shares the same exact opinion as I do. That Vrods aren't real harleys, and that scooters aren...

Scooters aren't motorcycles, there's a distinctive difference in how they operate, how you sit on them etc. They're only motorcycles in the sense that they have 2 wheels. VRODs aren't real harley davidsons, because well, harley davidsons make 45 degree aircooled vtwins. The Vrod doesn't fit in that...

It's awesome but price is astronomical. They're eventually going to need to get an assembly plant. I don't know if they can work a deal with polaris industries or something like that. One thing's for certain Erik Buell can't be as restricted as he was.

It's because scooters aren't motorcycles. They're about as related as a car is to a truck. You straddle a motorcycle, you don't straddle a scooter. Alot of scooters are also automatic very few bikes are. So according to you, VRods are not Harleys even though they are sold at HD dealerships, scooter...

Marvin, I can sense the frustration in your post. You made me think this morning that maxi-scooter riders really do have it more difficult than even I thought. On one hand, you have many motorcyclists who view scooters (all scooters) as non-motorcycles, even though they have 2 wheels, and on the ot...

Yeah, I can understand the appeal of a BMW too, but their terrible styling does nothing for me either.

Few people asked and said they wanted to know how it sounds. Finally got around to doing a video. It was done on a digital camera so the quality ain't the greatest.

I let my one friend ride it on rare occasion. However, he's also my mechanic. So he can usually tell me how it's running. Does my cars too. I pay him for the bigger stuff. He recently did tie-rod ends in my jeep. But for small stuff I don't.

Vrod isn't really a cruiser. Lots of people complain about the comfort of the vrod. Plus they aren't real harleys. It says "Harley" on the tank. It's made by Harley. Therefore it IS a "procreating" Harley and a very real one at that. word :exactly: Yup. Made by Harley = Harley. Just because it does...

Vrod isn't really a cruiser. Lots of people complain about the comfort of the vrod. Plus they aren't real harleys. If you're looking at the cruiser market to not look at Harley Davidson is a mistake. They aren't for everyone but there's a reason they're the #1 cruiser in america. Styling, aftermarke...

Get a Harley you won't regret it.

Just read this over at the harley forums. Appears the engine will keep 90 degrees between pistons but will rotated towards the rear making it a true vtwin.

The definitive 600cc supersport. Awesome by all accounts. However, the GSXR750 is very close in price.

I got out today really nice day out. Stopped by work to drop my stuff off and went out for a ride before work. I got to the next town over and looked up one dark cloud in the sky the rest sunny. Naturally I got poured on. I was only wearing a tshirt and got soaked. Hopped on the interstate on my way...

I'll give you the forecast for the Northeast United States right now.


RAIN UNTIL THE END OF TIME
