Of course it "must be an optical illusion"How could it not be? My friends bike is a Harley and we know Harley is the, biggest,best handling,fastest,best built,American made,best looking,best sounding,with best dealer network, motorcycle on the planet.You tell us at every opportunity.
My friends Harley has low rider shocks flatish bars.A skinny "badlander" seat and skinny chromed 5 spoke mag front wheel not spoked.My bike has a 18" front wheel and sits higher than his. His bike is longer.but my bike APPEARS to look bigger.Thank you AND my bike always gets more attention than the Harley

YOU brought Harley Davidson into this exchange not me. Claiming a bike that is 5 inches shorter and 140 pounds lighter with half the displacement "looks bigger" and "gets more attention" is just more metric owner Harley envy. Is your bike green?

Perhaps you're a little green?Buyers remorse perhaps? Every time someone mentions Harley here,which by the way,is a TRIUMPH forum, you get all defensive
.My bike[the best bike on earth, in my slightly biased opinion]LOOKS bigger than his and always draws more attention, which admittedly is from old geezers.
My bike will just touch 160kph his will do over 200kph.His bike will smoke my bike at the drop of a hat.There ya go,his Harley can do that.Feel better now? He also has about $60,000 Australian in his bike I have about $13,000 Australian in mine So his Cost SLIGHTLY more too.Harley make a good quality,overpriced [in Australia] over-hyped product.That's why I would have bought Victory which wasn't overpriced had I wished to buy a brand other than Triumph.Then I would have hung around on a Victory forum not a Triumph one.

Over priced here too.

Apparently the Indian made 500 Harleys are selling like hotcakes here as they're learner approved .Ugly IMO but "gosh it's a Harley" factor? I've never seen one in the flesh.
