Actually any means " one or more".

No, in the context used, any means all. If one was picked at random and no matter what, the answer would be the same, this means all.

Ok, you two, let's take the English language debate to PM's.

Ahh, the Brits already did a nice study on the use of ABS in a magazine, either Visor Down or BIKE. All I can remember is the chart showing that ABS had the lowest braking distance compared to both brakes, front only and rear only. Though many of them would turn it off when taking their bikes off road should a bike have that option.

The one who rode was/ is a professional rider.

always something interesting with those publications. I've stopped reading the US based magazines for any real info on riding.

The whole "electronic assistance" (ABS, traction control, etc) issue is pretty interesting on its own. Interesting enough to start a separate thread on it?

Done. A new thread has been started in Motorcycle Talk.

Great idea. I posted there about it just now too.

I have a problem with your initial premise, that they are cool. Harleys were a lot cooler when they were made by the same company that makes bowling balls.

Wow, resurected this puppy to start another flame war???

I'll agree with some of the early posters on this thread, Harley's have two wheels, ergo they are cool. I admire the bikes and the brand, and you can't fault Harley on their marketing, probably the best in the business. Would I buy one, no, I have never had the desire to own one, but that doesn't mean I don't respect or like them...
