Re: [ST] Harly and rest of the world

I have only rarely had a Harley rider wave but that is probably because they
don't want to take one hand off their ridiculous ape hangers for fear of a
disastrous tank slapper.
Coincidentally I actually rode a Harley last night, the first in about 10
years and to be quite honest I was surprised by it. I was bloody surprised
people pay good money for them !!!!!!!!
I definitely know why I ride a Triumph.
I once had a Harley rider tell me that deep down all bikers really want a
Harley, he was serious. I think it is that kind of attitude that really
pisses me off about them.
Don't bother trying to tell me ride what you like as long as it has 2
wheels, etc, etc because I absolutely agree but I don't need these guys
telling me what I really want.
