to buy the style I wanted in a Harley it would have been 32K, I only spend 10including some gear on this one, and it doesn't leave oil spots on my driveway

I agree, my friend bought the similar version that was out a few years back and paid like 8K down in California. Last time I was down there, I rode his bike and man it was nice! But again, just not the kind of style I can pull off...I look ridiculous riding a chopper. But if I grew my bread out some more, wore more leather and got way more tattoos, then just maybe

I have a friend who was born into a Biker family (Hells Angels) and he was saying I am exactly the kind of dude they love to see riding choppers cause its so easy to make fun of...

At least it is dependable unlike the domestics or English bikes... Bikes and their owners are such a diverse group. Living out in Bragg Creek is a blast to ride into the hamlet and get to see the bikes... they are already rolling into town with gravel on the roads and snow drifts in the ditches...

There's already quite a few cruising around downtown by the shop. Just today there was a group of 5 or 6 rad Triumphs that went roaring by... I love spring/summer specifically for the bikes and muscle cars
