well.. few people actually ride Harley's to their extreme's, I am one of those who do... Until you have done a 38 degree lean angle turn at 70 mph on a 640lb Harley, I would highly suggest we not classify HD's as either slow or not particularly nimble. The '06 TBA parked right next to my bike has never outrun my '99 HD... if you have any pointers on how to make that happen, it would be greatly appreciated.
I'm the most non-loyal HD owner you will ever meet, and the "buy a bike, become a biker" mentality is stupid. For as bad as HD is, sportbikes are not exactly exempt either. I ride with the TSBA Texas Sportbike Association, (yes i'm the only Harley rider!) and because you own a sportbike, doesn't make you a great rider either. It takes skill that cannot be bought to be a (biker, bada$$, enthusiast.... somebody who actually can ride!)
Making fun of everyone else's ride is pretty much standard fare, always has been and probably always will be... but I will say this, I get more comments on the TBA than I've ever gotten on the HD..
