If it wasn't for Harley Davidsons, middle aged accountants would have no outlet for their rage other than office shootings.

I'm middle aged and work in an accounting related field.

No one can catch anyone on a Harley.

But the cops might, if they're fast enough, right?

So much Harley hatin'. Sure they're expensive, loud and sometimes obnoxious but I can name quite a few firearms that are the same way and nobody bats an eye. Harley is just the Colt of motorcycles; they're an American icon, have been around forever and have a huge following. Many top tier sport bike racers also have a Harley so there has gotta be something there.

Just messing around. I've had quite a number of HDs and some HD riders put on serious miles.

and many will happily ride in the rain. Mom's sweetie has a heritage soft tail. We sometimes ride together but I make him stay in the back.

I've got a KTM 1290SA-S. I love it, the wife, she does not. It's a bit of a haul to get up on it and she's very small. Almost had to sleep on the porch after I took her up Hwy 219 from Newberg to Scholls.

My buddies that have them say the Harley's are the best for passengers. I'm seriously looking at a big ol bagger that weighs more than my truck. I just need to rent one for the weekend and see if it's her thing.

I am not going to play dressup though. No flames, no skulls.

The Vstrom has a great passenger seat. I was discussing this with a friend's wife who rides cupcake (pillion) and when I brought up the strom her eyes lit up and she said she'd loved riding on that bike.

Where did you get that? I did not know they were ever imported. Back in the days I borrowed a RS250 for a few weeks, and that bike was a hoot!
