How Harley Davidson should advertise if they were honest

    That's a bit rough, the technology we get today for top dollar is at least up to 1960's standard.

    nah, thats it - he's convinced me.
    I'm advertising the 'king now. Fucked if I know why I ever bought it.
    Gunna buy an R1 and some matching leathers and boots, a $1500 helmet with some tough factory graphics and go for a ride around the block on sunny sundays.
    Why did I ever waste my time?

    Some ppl dont just get it with Harley Davidson's  , Harley build old styled cruisers with modern manufacturing techniques  . Boy Racer's on their yamasuzukawahonda boy racer bikes , in full leathers , boots , gloves , f/f  helmets etc etc , are possibly the biggest posers of em all .

    Love it, sums up everything for me in a Harley and that's why I love Harley s - You need to be a real rider to ride a bike that doesn't want to stop LOL
    ABS on a Harley is "Ahh Bloody Suspension, me back hurts"
    Inverted Front forks - The thing that happens when you hit a car
    Full Floating Calipers - The things that fly off when you go around a corner
    Jap's make reliable bikes
    Harley make motorbikes
    I ride a motorbike, I ride a Harley

    No big deal - I found the vid quite funny. We're all biased to our own faves be it Holden V Ford, movies, music, footy codes, politics ... and bikes!

    No diifferent to the 'rice rocket' taunts we hang on the 'Power Ranger/coloured condom' wearers who ride them.

    What make me laugh is a bunch of Yanks putting shit on a product made in there own country

    Wonder if they fly the stars and stripes of the back of there rice burners

    Odviously forgot about Pearl Harbour.

     Love it. The writer could easily have been a HD fan. One road tester of the Iron summed up the magic perfectly:

    "Like criticizing a Ducati for expensive maintenance, listing the woes of the bare bones 883 Iron hardly seems a worthy effort—it’s just part of the machine, and if you don’t like it there are plenty of other choices out there. 
     
    There is something about that peanut tank perched on the narrow degree of those cylinders that makes me want to ride on down to my favourite bar and close the joint down. But don’t worry, I’ll stumble home on foot and fetch the bike tomorrow morning. And if some other drunk carves their initials into the fuel tank? I’m fine with that. If you were hoping for a more analytical review of this bike you’ll have to search elsewhere, because just like my fondness for all-girl punk bands, Merle Haggard and women who swear too much, I don’t think that I can state my fondness for something that I like this much in the usual way".

    I would still choose any bike that doesn't sound or feel like I'm riding a sewing machine. FXD or T100

    One should always be able to laugh at yourself. Everytime I get out of bed after a root I look in the mirror and say "What silly bitch would root an ugly stick like you" LMFAO
