Heck I bet that 99.9% of us around here ride with other bikes and other than kidding around we do not make rude comments publicly to the riders of those "other" bikes.
you missed the NE at PAT's when 50 Triumph riders howled when a HD ran like crap leaving the party...then returned for a "flyby" when he had it running better ]
Now that was just really really funny. That guy was saying how good a harely was and then it doesn't start? Come on any one would have laughed and hooted at that.
And this kind of thing happens on forums. On Suzuki forum guys bash jeeps, on Vespa forums I bet they bash hondas. etc and so forth.

Boy oh boy! This here "tolerance thing" can be such a bore, you know.(actually it appears that it can catch fire sometimes, TOO) Listen UP, and listen GOOD!(how's THAT for a John Wayne impression, huh?!)..... 99% of all this Harley bashing around here is done in a mock supercilious manner, i.e. "TONGUE-IN-CHEEK"(at least in my case it is) Sure, many(NOT most) of the Harley RIDERS(emphasis on the word RIDERS...NOT the machines)we encounter almost every day make this an "easy joke", BUT when it's all said and done, ALL MOTORCYCLIST share a common bond, and that is....TRYING LIKE HECK TO STAY ALIVE OUT THERE ON THE STREETS ALONG SIDE ALL THOSE FRIGGIN' CAGERS!!! And so I have to ask you Mark....Since WHEN have you Brooklynites become so friggin' sensitive, anyway? Gee, I always thought you guys were kind of epitomized by the likes of people like comic Dom Irrera, who has lines such as..... "Growing up where I did in the streets, I had a lot of friends who would say the most fowl things about people and then just take it back like they never said it. Take my friend Louis "No-Neck" Garbolli for one. He'd say stuff like, "You know Vinny, don't cha? That low-down, good-for-nothin' skanky piece-of-...BUT I DON'T MEAN THAT IN A BAD WAY, YA KNOW!!!"" 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

I agree with Dwight. Its really about the riding itself not so much the ride itself (iron horse)
Its just too bad Harleys are UGLY.

not sensitive...just hungover and annoyed. Then as Rob said, everything was slow in the lounge so we just kept dumping a little gas, then a little gas, then just said screw it and threw the whole gas can on the bonfire.

Sure...Beemer riders are snooty, stuck-up S.O.B.'s who wouldn't give you the time of day if you paid them...and NOT a SINGLE one of them is capable of wrenching on their over engineered german POS bikes...let alone satisfying their ladies at home...and we all know the only reason they ride BMW's in the first place is so they can feel "better" than the rest of us...they have to because of their very small penis size

HEY My PLUMBER told me that only pu$$ys use soapy water to check a line for leaks...flame will work better, and pressure will keep it from going back into the pipe...and (no sh!T pure truth) he rode a SPORTSTER so HE KNOWS what a Manly man should do!...

Not entirely true. I had the benefit of reading the opinions (regarding both reliability and handling) of the members on this very site for almost a year (around 4 years ago) before going ahead and buying the bike.

Sorry again Mark, but in my past 29 years of riding I cannot remember myself ever "dressing up" with a brand's merchandise in order to "play the part" as do most of the HD croud (including here in Greece). Forgive my lack of more appropriate descriptions but I think you know what I am referring to.
I will, however, agree 1000 per cent with you that the bike "spoke" to me (and still does).

A biker and his girl were going to apply for a loan to buy a new mobile home.. they showed up together and the loans manager was in a bit of a bind. They both had long hair, tattoos, wore black leather, sunglasses, head bands. he didn't know which one was male and which one was female. Trying to sort out his dilemma in a discrete way he asked,
"Which one of you has the menstrual cycle?"
The biker piped up ... "It must be her, I ride a Harley
