Ive been a part of this website for some time now. I just traded in my Triumph America for Harley Ultra Classic, now I know what you're thinking this man is crazy, it's time for me to move on. Everyone I've dealt with or spoke with him this website have been very kind and I'm very fortunate to call you my friends. As much as I love Triumph Motorcycles I have to say I'm moving on to bigger better things plus it rides a lot better

Rides better?  Bigger doesn't mean better, guys have been riding HD making all that noise for years without that annoying side effect of horse power. 99 out of 100 Harleys ever made are still on the road today. The other one made it home. Seriously, good luck and hope you are happy with it, they really aren't the undepenable junk they used to be.

But,as Ian said, and I have read elsewhere
A Harley Davidson is the best way of turning gasoline into noise without the negative effects of horsepower.

No need to say goodbye. They still let me hang around here and do the occasional ride even after I bought my Indian. (Although, I DO still have my old Trumpet)

Tigger you need to tell us about your new adventures. We want pictures and how you feel about your move. (you could get an Indian) Friendship is more important than the bike you ride.

This is a loving bunch of old coots here ! It's great knowing that no matter what we ride, we are always welcome here. No exclusivity or snobbery.

I still have my triumph, and a harley albeit the harley is in a million pieces, I almost never ride the bike anymore. I wanted horse power so I been riding horses. Yes the flesh and blood kind. I don't much share my adventures but I still read these old men's posts and from time to time even respond to one or two.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
