Re: Bobber? Bagger? Booger? What the....?
i got my desire of having a harley from my dad. he has ridden everything but sport bikes since 1962. he is now on his third heritage softail, and will only own harleys now. he is the one person that not only encouraged, but insisted that i get a 250 to start. he loves the rebel, but i had a fondness for the geezer.
yeah, i've seen the rubs and the outlaw bikers (or guys that think they are), but i've seen as many snobs on goldwings and sportbikes. i just don't understand the us vs. them thing with harleys and everything else. i try to be an "as long as you ride" biker, but i refuse to give the wave to anyone on a scooter.

Re: Bobber? Bagger? Booger? What the....?
There is also one more group but thankfully a smallish group. A fellow rider asks how far you normally ride in a week, month or year. He rides further every year and is suddenly superior to you. I talked to him twice. The first time and the last time.

Spam and coconut salad, with a sprinkling of sea salt. What more can one ask for?

Re: Bobber? Bagger? Booger? What the....?
Just my opinion but I can cut up, rewire, screw around with and generally experiment with my bike in any way I want for less than a couple hundred dollars (usually for just the cost of sweat) with my little GZ. If I had a barely I would be afraid to touch a bolt cause I don't have the bank roll to pay 500+ for a set of HD grips.
I'm sure they are good bikes but in quality I think most bikes have caught up to them at this point. I wouldn't mind having one but only if it was of a comparable cost to everything else. |
