    A bit long article. I agree with some of his opinions and disagree on some others.
    "So we've identified that the vast majority of motorcycle consumers here are idiots buying bikes on cheap finance deals before promptly killing themselves."

    Because people tend to be stingy with those old RC30s.....

    Also, barely being able to see over the poverty line doesn't help.

    Thanks guys! Knowing now that all links work all the time every time and that I can finally stop using whiteout to cut and paste on my computer is the most valuable lesson I have ever received.

    Any tips on buying a Harley?

    Are they saying that a 200mph death machine can't be practical? Because I'm on board for a 200mph practical death machine.

    The computer experts will probably tell you that since you are from a foreign country only they can save you.
