You show you know nothing about Harley's

 

I just double checked on the RD350 and sure enough it redlines at 9ooo rpm.
That's a pretty high redline.Given some harley redline at around 6,ooo.

 

The Cadillac STS is not a good car.,Now the CTS is awesome.So you got yer cars all mixed up.
BTW ... what is a Harley Ultra.I'm not famaliar with that Model.
You made that up right.

 

Florida ... Schmorida ... makes little difference.Once a harley a$$h@le always one.
Change of scenery make no diffference.It's part of being IN THE CLUB.

 

You are wrong. The STS has the same motor as a CTS. We traded a CTS for the STS because the CTS has a terrible ride in the back seat

The Ultra Limited is top of the line Electra glide Mine is purple on top black on the bottom and has Vance and Hines true duals

Your hate and biased is well noted. It is not the Harley riders attitude it is your attitude

 

I have no problem with Harley riders.

Many times while parked on the side of the road (to pee or rest) they always make it known that they will offer assistance if needed.

Most are real friendly...even to a Jap bike owner. In fact many started on Jap bikes.

 

You are correct. I started on a Kawasaki 750 LTD

 

Yer doggone tootin' I have a problem with Harley owners and even more so with clone
V-Twin cliques.Any group of Bikers who feel their Ride is far and above superior
attracts my wrath.I also NEVER,Blip my throttle.What is that all about.
It's about attention.Pure & Simple.That is why Harley owners buy their bikes.To sit
at a stop light or gas station and Blip their throttles.it's retarded.
That is also why at every opportunity within reason I smoke Harley bikes OFF THE LINE
to prove how weak their bikes truly are.I have literally made Harley guys feel like crap after
proving how what they sit on ISN'T very powerful,after all.

 

If you cannot see the right-side brake lever (it's clearly visible), you need glasses.

 

Presumably, an Ultraglide or Ultra Classic. The only one that makes up BS in wholesale lots is YOU!

 

Meaning for the rear brake which I do not see.There is No disc rotor on the back wheel
and it isn't a drum brake.Most Bobbers use a drum brake on the rear and No front
brake.

 

Well then Say Electra Glide by golly.Or Super Glide.
There is No Harley Ultra.
He meant Electra Glide Ultra Classic.

 

There is a very obvious brake caliper on the rear. The rotor is on the other side, just visible past the spokes & sprocket. There is a very obvious brake lever & fluid reservoir on the right handlebar. If you cannot see them, you are blind!

 

I like anything that drinks gas, hell if it drinks diesel im up for building one of those aswell. ive had everything from a build 4g62 first gen eclipse, to my recent 94 mustang street/drag killer.

Im not make biased when it comes to anything with an internal combustion engine.

Now Im in to bikes, in a big way. I own harleys. Why you ask? Resale value, and the muscle car like feel. I unload toys pretty fast, im allways bored with what I got, as soon as I finish the project off it goes. Well with cars if you do this, you lose money. With a harley, I make money EVERY time. That in turns fuels my hobby further with much needed capital for bigger and badder bikes.

Nothing wrong with metric cruisers, they just are not for me. I have cut a few up to make some cool retro bobbers with buddy's. Disliking someone for what they ride, or choose to buy is just imature and silly. Grow up.

 

double post sorry

 

agreed Harley's aren't a rational choice if you want a quality machine...the japanese and to a lesser extent the european bikes are better in every category...

it's an image many people enjoy, like how some people like to be seen in a pick-up while others prefer a BMW...

blipping the throttle is really stupid/childish/annoying I never understood the need for it either...my brother seemed to think this was even more necessary at midnight when most people were asleep...

 

You are a proud arrogant elitist and have to tell lies to show your hate.

 

I gave you a link click on it it is about 2011 ultra limited which is what I have Post#130

 

You are an Obvious Contrarian.Meaning a Liberal who tries their best to make
other than Liberals,look stupid.
But I am going to prove just how Stupid yer assumption is.
I admitted about 4 times already their is a front brake.I see no rear brake
device.No Rotor therefore No caliper to have disc pads grab and stop.
That black thing that looks like a rear caliper is obvioulsy a Rear Brake light which
could also double as a license plate holder and turning signals.
That Bike cannot be driven on the street w/o some rear brake and License plate
holder bracket.
I see a right foot lever yet no right grip brake lever on the handlebar and therefore
feel that right foot pedal is for the front brake.
You were astute in only one area.Pointing out the master cylinder box above
the right handlebar grip.But that is all.That rear wheel has NO Braking device ... period.
The chain sprocket has nothing to the left of it.There are wheels made with No hubs at all
that have brakes,but that is a very hard thing to explain.Also look at.
A Hubless wheel { like a Big empty ZERO } that actually has brakes.

 

Seems to be a rather unsupported opinion. In the five years I've owned my current Harley (a 2007 XL50) it has had zero mechanical problems. The EFI and electronic ignition is perfect and the bike fires at any elevation as it should (a problem with older carb'd m/c's). The ride is excellent for both enjoying the tight and winding by-ways as well as distant touring on the freeways. The motor mounts eliminate engine vibration inherent in V-Twins so even that isn't a issue.

Older Harleys did have some problems with workmanship and even design but there is one fact that owners of other brands cannot dispute. There are far more older Harleys from the 1970's, '60's and before on the road than there are of all other brands combined. Based upon shear numbers old Harleys are probably the number one motorcycle for restoration and virtually never end up in the scrape heap. That can't be said of Japanese or European motorcycles. Some are restored but far more are scrapped. Harleys are rarely scraped.

 

I see ALL kinds of bike owners blip the throttle. That goes for Harley's, customs, street bikes... everything. I am never one to do it though as I am not an attention whore like those other fools.

 

H-D's are strictly cruisers.

Japanese and other foreign manufacturers offer a lot more variety...from your basic 250cc steet bike all the way to insanely fast big cc sport bikes...
plus dirt, enduro if getting off pavement is your deal...and of course the gas sipping scooters.

Harleys?

Big, heavy cruisers...and they do well in that niche, building up the mystique of the "bad boy" biker with the throaty exhaust emanating from the V-Twin.

Since my first Honda VF-500; I've always preferred rice burners...

To each their own.

Foreign bikes just offer more variety to the riding community.

 

and if someone is after that "bad boy" image the Japanese have that covered as well with their V twin Harley clones...to each his/her own i'm more interested in performance than image...

 

that's an unsupported opinion as well...why would I want to ride an ancient redundant design? let alone restore it? unless the machine is a significant example of technological history and design there is no point...I have no interest in driving a fifties or sixties chevy they're crap handling/performing machines compared to today's cars, if I own one it's purely for nostalgic reasons not because they are better vehicles...for the same reason I have no interest in owning a mid 70's 750 Honda or Harley, they're antiquated designs, what is produced in japan today are far better and if you wait 6 months another more improved design will roll off the assembly line....
