I have to agree with Paul, I know quite a few HD riders and most that know anything about anything like Triumphs and more often than not owned one at one time or another. I have also met idiots on HD and I think Paul is right here too. They are so common now that you are bound to find a greater proportion of jerks riding them. My friends Night Train never missed a beat either and he abused that thing. My other friend rode mostly Panheads and he built them and maintained them. Those bikes always ran fine too. He had a 50 EL that he used to ride with me when I had my BMW R50 out and that bike never missed a beat either. Only thing was he had to repolarize the charging system once in a while.

I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
