I think that Chris Shields makes some good points. However, he misses one crucial point. Most Harley's are cruisers and they're not made for speed or handling. They do have alot of low end torque and a distinct sound that people like. Also, this was written before the VROD development. How did that workout for Harley?
He is correct about the culture and the mentality of the Harley riders. A Sociologist is probably more qualified to explain the Harley Phenomenom.
I'm just glad I bought my Triumph.
