You see, THAT'S the problem with some Harley riders...They don't realize one needs a GREAT MACHINE in order to "reach the heights" that a Triumph can attain.

Well said there, Dwight!

I think a lot of us ride so much because we can, and we can because our choice of transportation is reliable. What on earth could cause a new H-D to break down? Out of gas?

I laughed yesterday at a young lady telling me how she and her guy enjoyed the ROT rally in Austin last year. What caused me to laugh was when she told me they had trailered the bike (H-D) to the rally. I almost choked on my lunch, but I wasn't criticizing anything. Just smiling inwardly about how most of us would have never considered doing that. I know, I know. There is a time and place for it, but by and large, I think we all agree that these bikes are just too much fun (and reliable) to ride, and we would all much rather ride there, than trailer one there. GREAT MACHINES, indeed!

Good story, Bedoin!
