With the 105th going on in southeast wisconsin........Its funny to see how many other bikes come to "celebrate" the 105th. Yes we are all bikers! I have a harley too, but I find it great to bust out the SM and be the black sheep. I get more positive comments on my SM or speed four than I EVER do on my Fat bob. Althugh their is a lot of Harley bashing on this site, this is something special... I gotta go and rock out to Lynard Skinard for a whopping $8 
Just say NO........To holiday riders!

Yeah I'm in northeast Illinois about an hour south of Milwaukee. There sure has been a lot of North bound harley traffic on 94 lately. Not sure if I'll make it up there or not this weekend, have to find out what's going on.

The only way you can make that statement is if you qualify it with the stipulation that during the time Triumph wasn't producing bikes (1-7 years, depending on what definition you use), Harley's bikes (A.M.F. models) didn't count either. And I don't think you'll get much argument either.

Also a third party made and sold about 500 Triumph Bonneville under licnes. Not aviable in the US, but in the UK
Blue '03 TBA, Made in England. (50+ mpg).

The thing I find annoying about Harley is the EVERY 5 YEAR anniversarysuperspeciallimitededitiongottahavethisnewpaintscheme bike line they have. OK I get it, Harley is an established company, 100 years calls for a celebration, but jeez, they have been doing this since at least the 75th year, every five years

Just try missing your wife's birthday once. You'll find out what a big deal it is.
