Hey Rik:
Why not lose the "attitude" and accept that since this list is known as
the ST Digest, most of the folks here are primarily oriented towards riding
a particular type of motorcycle? Plenty of us are multiple bike owners and
recognize the pleasure in owning different bikes for different applications.
I've ridden a number of HD products from Sportsters to Fat Boys and V Rods,
and didn't care generally for the vibration, poor suspension, weak brakes
and ground clearance, and the cost of membership to the "exclusive" club. I
like the look of a lot of the cruisers but I'd be much more inclined to buy
a Star or perhaps a basic Victory well before I'd consider an overpriced HD.
There are a lot of HD owners I know who are great people and skilled riders,
but they're overshadowed by the clowns who think bike ownership is just
another costume they don on Saturdays with a black T shirt and your very
same "Fuck You" attitude...I've found the ST to be a great all around bike,
and I don't begrudge HD owners....they look just fine in my mirrors....

Should have kept the Speed Triple too.....now that's attitude, dude....
