Help for Downunder Harley Fan, Owner of 7 so far and 8th coming, battling the Goldwing enthusiasts.. HELP WITH SOME AMMO, BROTHERS...
They rag on that it is faster, made in America, more reliable, and has more luxury and features than even the CVO, and for less money... They rag on HD that it is half Japanese to, even nippondenso starter, blah blah...
I defend HD, saying Honda has no soul, no heritage of taking over for horses, and HD has that great sound we all thrive on... I tell them: "Honda is a convertible car missing two wheels and the doors"..... Heh he...
They argue against the sound, saying they could make it louder but they like the quiet run, I argue "Loud Pipes Save Lives"... Running out of ammo now....
Now I have some American Heritage in my blood, I feel loyalty to the first and biggest, HD.. But they are British Heritage for the most part, and do not give a whit about HD being American, if anything it mean unrealiable to them.. Looking at their practical side, comfort and speed, total reliability, and the advice of the Professional Bikers and Motorcycle Instructors, I kind of lose the arguments as they say the Honda is smoother, faster, more comfortable, more luxury, more reliable, and even costs less money. For a pure Touring Bike they have a strong point, not for me, but they win for most...
Brothers in America, any more AMMO to pass my way?
