The Tooch Posted July 24, 2013 Share #1 Posted July 24, 2013 I guess I'll just post this here.....seems to me if a Harley is not on a trailer......the owners must want to keep them in one of these! :rotf: http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/gma_product.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441849449&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374309450692&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374309450692&locale=en_CA&bmUID=1374693261972&bmLocale=en_CA Wonder if the RSV would fit?

Beau-Kat Posted July 24, 2013 Share #6 Posted July 24, 2013 My Sportster doesn't stay off the road long enough to cover it up. When I'm not on it, somebody else is. My friend is commuting on it today, just like he has been doing for the last two months. Have had it for about six years. No engine or frame problems or parts falling off yet. The tail light bulb does succumb to the vibes from time to time (non rubber mounted engine), but that's minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvester Posted July 24, 2013 Share #10 Posted July 24, 2013 I started riding two wheels in 1959 and have owned HD's over the years, The first new HD was an 82 Sturgis and I loved it. In 1999 I ordered a 2000 Ultra Classic. It was beautiful, blue and silver, and had the 96 ci engine. After $5000 in accessories and 8000 miles of being broke down five times on the side of the road, I gave up and sold it. Never again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, one you loved, the other you hated coz it broke down so much ... so you take the worst case (out of two) to direct the rest of your decisions. Not a bad idea ... I shoulda used that philosophy when my first marriage crashed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad idea ... I shoulda used that philosophy when my first marriage crashed Actually I had a Sportster in the late 60's which was used, and I had a 62 Duo Glide which was used, and then a 67 Electra Glide also used. Now granted they were older bikes but they liked to leave oil marks everywhere. The Sturgis was a fantastic machine but it got totaled. The Ultra was a bike from hell and I see no reason to repeat this era in my life. My 02 Venture does everything I need and it always runs. And yes, because the Ultra broke down so much I made my decision. Life is too short! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted July 25, 2013 Share #13 Posted July 25, 2013 But does this website have enough bandwidth to handle a Harley tech section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ediddy Posted July 25, 2013 Share #14 Posted July 25, 2013 If you want to see harely bashing go to www.harleytechtalk.com. Some of the things the harley guys say on there would get deleted if they were said on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted July 25, 2013 Share #15 Posted July 25, 2013 I'm going to have so many people on ignore here that it will be like I'm here by myself. Just kidding of course. When I bought the Rode Glide, my wife asked me if I realized how much crap I was going to get. Yes, I knew it. All in good fun as far as I'm concerned. I did put my flag pole and VentureRider flag on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcarl Posted July 25, 2013 Share #17 Posted July 25, 2013 I did put my flag pole and VentureRider flag on it. Oh ya,,,, that'll help!!!!!! with what I'm not sure, but it certainly can't do any harm,,,, did you use lock-tite?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted July 25, 2013 Share #18 Posted July 25, 2013 And for all you who feel sorry for the HD???? we're not Harley bashing, we know that wouldn't go anywhere, the Mod's would delete it. We are FreeBird bashing,, and so far we've got away with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted July 25, 2013 Share #19 Posted July 25, 2013 Don't own a Harley, probably won't. Love the sound. They look OK to great. However, my cousin, his wife and their friends all ride HD. Total of 6 brand new bikes in the last 2 years. Every single one, shifters or some other part falls of with amazing regularity. Every one is considering carrying a spare R/R with them. On nearly every trip for the lat 2 years at least one of them has to go to a shop. Not wants to, has to. Now being fair, Matt rode a 2000 Ultra Classic to 160,000 miles with no serious issues. But did have a host of minor ones. As for bashing, I have to. They are over priced, over hyped, and most spend more time in garages and on trailers than under their owner. But my God, they sound like a million dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually all the bashing is just in good fun just like 1st gens versus 2nd gens. Ok maybe a little retaliation due to the fact that so many Harley owners look down their nose at those who own anything but a Harley. I can't even count the number of times I have been told how nice my bike looks followed with {{ but I own a Harley}}. I have to admit though that this attitude has been changing and I have met many Harley owners in recent years that do not have the Harley attitude of years gone by.
