I thought this was posted on Other Topics! If you don't like to have an open mind and read what others are doing don't read it, move on and take your lessons with you.  It not always about one persons views.  I often see post about Trucks and a host of Other Topics!  Are we going to just have one subject.  Lets do a little growing up.

Yeah, really.  WTF?  That's like a turd in the punch-bowl here.  If you ain't ridin' a Harley, or thinkin' about ridin' one, what could you possibly contribute to, or gain from this Site?  Choices?  This Site ain't about choices.  It's about Harleys, and the people that ride them.  Get a grip.  Don't make me say what I really think.  >:( That would possibly get this thread locked down.  Which, btw, probably ain't a bad idea.  ;) There endeth the lesson.  Later--HUBBARD

Good call. Last I heard the US of A was still a free country. But then I just read about it or see it on AFN. I consider reviewing other bikes as rider education and determining if another ride gets added to the mix. I will also say the the Wing gets it's share of bashing from metric sites as well as here. Oh well...its always treated me right. Who knows if a BMW will replace it or not.

I guess I'm one that keeps the MOCO around. To stuborn or to stupid to change. Bought my first HD in 1969.....bought my latest one in 2009. Many heartaches & heartbreaks. But more great memories than I can even remember. Guess I bleed Orange & Black. With that said........that BMW is one hellofa machine!!!!!

Met Hubbard in MV, A very wise man!! Now it seems he will just say what he feels, as I pussyfoot around the subject. Well, in my book if it aint American it SUX. There I said it.

Looks like a sweet bike. I'm in the same place you are concerning Harley. Tired of overpaying for poor quality, outmoded technology and insulting customer service. Well done.

I should have called you!  Judy and I were in Tampa this weekend visiting our daughter!

The wind was bad Saturday.  We rode back to Augusta yesterday in rain and wind from Tampa to Jesup GA!
 :nervous:

Sorry I missed your reply Tommy. Sure would have been glad to see you and Judy. Sorry we missed the chance.
