Who Hates Harley Davidson?

I think Abba and kylie are high on the Harley play lists too.

 

The Harley Song of course is shitkicker and by edict no more than three chords in the chorus.

Hate less, ride more~

 

How has nobody posted this YouTube gem in this thread yet?

I already did, a long time ago and possibly in another post as well...To me, nothing sums it up more than this video!

 

This one is cool I like the Godzilla Mohawk thing on the one dudes helmet too.:

yeow!!!

I was thinking about this again and I like my bike because it is one of the best bikes ever built...not because it is a Honda. Honda just happened to build it. I avoid telling other people what to buy unless I'm ready to buy it for them. But to buy something BECAUSE it's a HD...ugh.

 

Anybody that has seen the jail in Tijuana BC (Baja Cal, so as to not add to the confusion) will know what the Hokey-Pokey is all aboot.

 

Those videos made my morning :thumbsup:

I got a buddy, that has a bunch of old Suzuki oil/air cooled Gixxers along with an old Katana 1100, 98 R1 and an old 750 limited gixxer. He bought a HD Night-train and put a springer front end on it. I personally never rode it, but have heard him say that the ride went to chit but it looks cool, same as that open belt he installed, just don't wear your bell-bottoms or flair jeans while riding it. If I do take a ride with him and he is oot on that dawg, I usually have to end up waiting for him to catch up with the other cruiser riders. Kinda lost touch with him anyway :loco:

I could see it almost if it got you alot of tail, but he never hooked up because of that HD, so I would rather go fast and feel good, than ride slow and sit on my arse bone. Cheers

 

Seriously folks, if you don't have enough reasons to never buy one of these 2 wheeled shit piles, allow me to give you one more GIANT reason to just say no to HD.

The term "2 wheeled shit piles" is just making me laugh til I cry!! HAHAHAHAHA..........

But seriously....thanks for sharing...

 

WOW! THAT is a real reason!

 

Interesting read and not good PR, Harley Davidson the Corvair of motorcycles unsafe at any speed. The funny thing in the article when he stated " The whole bike started shaking " my first thought he'd just started the engine.

 

Not a HD fan, just sharing something I find a bit confusing after reading the "wobble" article.

Here is another view...http://www.mlive.com/news/index.ssf/2012/07/why_michigan_state_police_move.html

 

I'll bet Harley has a HUGE discount program to get cops on Harleys.

 

I baby-sat a Harley for a friend for about a year while he was going through the "Big D". I rode it about 20 miles a month just to keep it from gumming up. What a piece of CRAP!!! I thought it'd be cool to have a beautiful HD hanging out in the garage and get to take it out for a spin every once in a while. Wow, was I disappointed. My XR250L rides better than that thing. I felt off balance all the time and it felt like it weighed 5000 pounds. No wonder they wobble all over the road.

 

See I've had a nasty wobble in my old Nighthawk 550 around 30mph a few times, but that was with a leaking fork, cupped front tire, and the damn bike was 30 years old. A cop cruiser? Had to be made in the last 5 years and well maintained.
