Harleys are the Airstreams of Motorcycles

[mexican]

Every bike I've owned has been the best bike, simply because I could ride it.... I love the Rocket Roadster for what it does, and for the area it excels in. Triumph hit it out of the park. But tomorrow when I hit the road to go downstate, I'll be on the Harley with the trunk, full fairing, radio and cruise control. And I'll wave at everyone riding a bike, even if it's a Vespa.

All bikes ride well for what they were designed, i feel just as good riding the rocket as i feel riding the harley, honda suzuki etc etc, take your pick

Does the Harley always park there over the oil leaks?

I love em, and have a few in the shed as well as my Rocket.

To tell the truth, I prefer the Harley motors thump (110 motors) and the cadence of the engine on a long run.

BUT, I prefer the Rocket's GRUNT
My Softail Slim S

My RoadKing

And my Delux

I hope everyone is speaking from experience, and not just bagging Harleys for the sake of it.

Our MC allows Triumph and Harleys, so no bias there.

I own a 2005 rocket 3, but I also like your motorcycles and your passion, "Be Safe!

Harley's don't leak, they mark their territory

Until a Rocket comes along and makes them move.

It seems Yamaha may have a very sound touring bike on the go. I had a venture royal v4. They've now put the big 1800 v twin in their touring bike. I'm afraid to test ride. I wish I could own them all.

The big Yamaha cruisers out Harley the Harleys in every way and with Japanese reliability and sound great as well I have been tempted a couple of times to buy one ,but I wanted a fast Touring bike that corners well

Loftyboy says it all! "i prefer the twin-cadence in the long run but ...prefer the rocket grunt" (and power!). Twins that perform beneath 3000 tpm are far more "relaxing" on the highway-pure meditation!.
I'm the owner of a Buell, oldtimer BMW 1000 cc and.....since 5000 miles a ROCKET! (which by the way appears to be very small beside the bike a was offered to climb on last week-Boss Hoss -6.2 650 kg!)

Harley Davidson.... the best way to turn fuel into noise.

I love Harley Davidson! If not for the arrogant sales man that pi$$ed me off, I would not have found the rocket!
Thank you HD!!
