if he is buying a bike so that he can say he has a bike, then buy the hd. but if he is buying a bike to ride a bike, then he is a fool for buying an hd. more often then not hds sit in the garage with very little miles because they are uncomfortable and most also end up in the shop so many times and in time the guy gets to where he cant afford repairs no more so there it sits, he's afraid to ride it because it might break down again
but seriously its kinda true about them haveing way fewer miles on the od then say a Triumph for instance which tend to have higer miles. so its up to him as to why he is buying a bike.
