My best friend of 24 years is a die hard Harley guy. He's drooling over the Thunderbird, even been playing with the "build your bike" feature on the Triumph web site.
It'll never happen.
He's also looking at a POS shovelhead. He'll probably get that even though it's old and slow and leaks, and not just because it's 1/3-1/2 the price of the T-bird. HD is much more than just a bike for most. It's a lifestyle.
(But if the planets align and he does get one, and Freedom gets one, then I'm going to have to get one, just to keep up

)
