Note that I didn't say "anything with four wheels" but that I said YOUR CAR. I'm making a gamble that none of you guys harping on Harleys are cruising around in an Exige on the weekends looking to eat up a Springer Softail in the hills. Furthermore, it's not very often you see a shifter kart or a Formula Atlantic cruising up the PCH or across Deal's Gap. I must be going on the wrong days.
Bob, you're all over the place...you started off going on about the bikes being heavy, poor handling, and too expensive to maintain. Now you're just saying they cost too much to purchase so they don't interest you. Am I the one drinking the koolaid in thinking H-D has great cruisers when I've done back-to-back comparisons? I never said H-D made cheap bikes.

Yes, the bikes that fit into the price ranges I can, and would, afford are exactly as I stated. You chose to talk about new bikes. That was your choice. New Bikes have they sell have no appeal to me and are overpriced.
What's so hard to follow?
... whatever, my head hurts, I'll stop banging it against the wall.
