I just love bikes. If I had the money and the space, I'd have a fleet and there would probably be a Harley in there.
I've said this here before though, when Harley guys give me guff I either say, "Nice bike. My accountant has one just like it." I don't bother to tell them I don't have an accountant.
Or, "Yeah, nice bike. Wasn't cool enough for Steve McQueen or Marlon Brando, but if it's cool enough for you..."
Gotta stay good natured though.
