Quote: well.. few people actually ride Harley's to their extreme's, I am one of those... 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.
I don't think most of us are picking on the bikes. I've seen friends do amazing things on 800 lb. road glides and full dressers.
It's (some of) the owners. And actually, that's an important distinction: owners vs. riders. There are too many of the former and not enough of the latter. I know people who ride the wheels off their Harleys and people who don't average 4 digits in mileage annually.
