I have spent some time in their dealeships and dunno. Great looking bikes but I cant see paying a 50 percent premium for a name?

Steel frames, engines designed 10 years ago(based off a design from the turn of the century), crappy susupension, and one hell of an image.

I would go jap for a cruiser.

Give me the $25k, I will kick you in the balls and let you work on my bike. I will buy you a H-D patch so you can get the full experience too.

Hey GM

Hey GM

Suzy M109 over the V-rod, Honda VTX over most of the rest. I do like the XR1200 streettracker though...And the Night train, but maybe not enough to pay the piper...

Night Train is my favorite. I've been looking at the Victory Vegas, but as others have said, that's a lot of coin to drop on a bike.

Naw really cuz I thought they all park them around the corner.

There is a guy down the street from me who every saturday gets on his bike and rides it less than a mile to the bar at the other end of the street, then after a few hours in the bar rides it back home. I don't think I've ever seen him actually turn the bike except into his driveway.

I think HD and metric tour bikes are all similarly priced. --- that's better, nicer anyways. LOL
