Money isn't an issue. The Harley is 18cc bigger and about 20lbs lighter. They are both of equal quaility and size. If the guy didn't turn left in front of me I'd still be driving my 2012 Triumph America. But I started looking and like the Harley. I am not really too fond of the peopel @ the Triumph dealership. They act like typical used car salesmen and are full of BS most of the time. The Harley store in town were very professional and friendly. I truly have nothing against either of the bikes them selves. As I stated earlier, the only issue is with Triumph parts. It took me 2 months or more to get my sissy bar.
