Default New daily driver....

Let the flaming begin. Picked me up an 01 Road King Clasic with 4800 miles on it for a daily driver. Now I have another toy to spend what little money I have after all the bills are paid.

I still have the RC this one is for the days I do not feel like going very fast. It is very confortable and gets 47 MPG... Also it carries a chic much better than the RC. See at my age you have to be able to apeal to the older women as well as the youngins.....and by older I mean 30 somethings LOL

LOL you will not offend me. I am more of the anti harley kinda rider. I love making fun of them. They all dress up in their get ups. Kinda funny. I just love all sorts of bikes. I would love to own one of each. You know what they say, variety is the spice of life....That is why I never got married and do not plan on it either. It would be kinda like being stuck with the same damn bike for ever...now who would want to be stuck with the first bike they ever owned for the rest of their life...Now there is a crazy concept

I did not know that ridding a sport bike made you a tough guy? I guess that is why all the snot nosed kids buy them...they are trying to be tough guys...Now tough is spending 20k on a bike that can barley get out of it's own way..Ok tough may not be the roght word......stupid....maybe

Exclamation Who's The Tuffest..........Toughest!

Oh Yeah! Thats funny about the snot nosed kids!

And that even funnier about a Harley, Not being able to get out of it's own way!


But what I was talking about was the main frame/body being tough! Because I ride this thing all day long! Thats tuff!

Not like the same snot nosed kids that ride for a hour, and go, Oh! Oh! my back hurts! or Oh! Oh! My neck hurts! Or Oh! Oh! my arms hurts! Those are pussies!
Thats why, I said I was tough!...........All Day Long! Baby!!


Now, when you started to say how tuff the Harley thing was, I thought you were going to say, Oh we have our tattoo's! Or Oh! I got an ear-ring! Or Oh! Oh! I've got my ball sack pierced!.... .............Och!
Well that is pretty tough, I'll give you that one!

Ok now this is funny. I was at the harley dealer getting some part and this guy is there to pick up his new exhaust. He goes on and on about all the shit he did to his bike. And how now with this great new exhaust it is going to really kick ass. He made a comment about how his harley will run with sport bikes and how he likes to fk with them. It was all I could do to not call bull shit on this guy. I wanted to tell his stupid ass to go get his fast harley and meet me with my RC. There is not a road going harley made that will compete with any modern sport bike. So I guess squids ride harleys too....

Yeah......for the first 15 feet................. Although, I did see a dresser kick an R6's ass in a quatermile in Ocean City, NJ, at the September bike rally. It was pretty embarassing..............smoked him good too, carrying the front wheel in the process...............I shit you not...............

Ok, lets clear one thing up, a Harley with Nicky Haden on it will outrun a lot of "fast" bikes with less qualified riders. The rider makes a huge difference.

Since I work with two devoted Harley people I can tell you all they do is complain about having to fix broken stuff. My bike uses a quart of oil every 3000 miles, My gearshift fell off, the fender rattles, the battery broke, the primary chain failed, the forks leak, the lifters collapsed. Its all I hear. And neither one of the bikes is even 5 years old. But these guys absolutely refuse to accept that the bikes are not that well built, and that the Jap cruisers are really well built and far more technologically advanced. I hear it all the time about how reliable the Harley is, but neither one of the pusses will ride in the rain, becuase the one time they did, they got water in the ignition and the bike died on the road. When its raining, look out front and the only two bikes that are there are me and the other guy who rides a Honda, and they start up every time.

Gotta give Harley credit for so effectively keeping their owners in a fog.
