Personally myself, when it comes to anyone who has something negative about the brand I ride-DILLIGAF:bleh:!!! But I do like your analogy though.:cheers:

 

I rode my VTX to the Springfield Mile today with 8 Harleys. One of the younger guys started some Honda crap. I just told him those other guys looking at his bike were really looking for the chick who rode it.

We had a good time of it..Was some good ribbing fun. Then we all went to a Harley bar where my VTX was the only Honda there all afternoon..Of course I parked right out the front door of the place. Got to say, never really had any problems with anyone..

You can always tell the Harley guys they are individuals just like all the other Harley guys wearing the same shirt and boots they are. Three of these guys had on the same boots.. I gave them crap about that too.

 

I live here in Springfield where the "Mile" takes place, and have to say, when it comes to bikes, nobody has any "crap" to say about another's ride, we all share the same wind. I've seen cruisers riding with sport bikes, "Wings" hanging out with H-D riders and so on, no bullshit about who rides what. I'ts all good brothers!!

 

This is America, you ride what you want, I ride what I want. Thank a vet for the freedom to do so.atriot:

 

Amen Marlon. Well put!

 

Good analogy,I like to just ask most of the Harley riders how much is their payment and grin for mine is zero.atriot:

 

Amen! Paid in FULL!:mosh:

 

There is no answer as the best method of getting rid of trolls is ignoring them.

If still persistent, a kick to the groin, elbow to the side of the head and a nice stomp with both feet into the face will provide 100% silence.

 

Hmmm...Didn't realize there was a Harley/Honda debate....:hmm2:
I guess I didn't get that memo....:icon_conf

 

Why even reply to this thread? Sorry it rained on you yesterday.

 

Well thank a VET for giving a Harley rider the freedom of trading there Harley in on a Honda anytime!!!!

 

Well the other day I had a couple kids ask me if my bike was a harley and I said no it is better then a Harley, it a Honda. :icon_chee

 

I do like that analogy..

All the Harley guys around here love my bike. Ive yet to find someone who Doesn't like it. But, if the harley/honda thing comes up, all I ever do is tell them how much mine was and point out that I could buy 3 of mine or one of theirs..

That usually shuts them up pretty quick. If it don't, I ask them if they have ever seen a Harley with 150k miles on it without ever being rebuilt...

Yep Harley, you can buy better, but you won't pay more. :bleh:

 

you should buy a harley seems your obsessed with them

 

Actually never had anyone approach me, I ride with a mixed race of bikes, Honda's, Harley's, Crotch rockets.

The one and only comment I've gotten from a harley rider was a twit that has a '06 or so with about 3000 miles parked in his garage. He has it for the image, in his case lips stick on a pigs ass is still a pigs ass, not be cause he talks smack but because he was born that way.

There is a name for that.

Garage Trophy.

I've still been lucky, not a one person I've ever ridden with has given me any grief about my ride. Mostly they are all Harley people because I normally ride with my father in law and his biker group, they are all they most respectful guys and love sharing the road with them. I compliment theirs and they compliment me.

They probably just know that I paid a 1/3 of what they did already! haha

 

I wonder if there's a "Harley vs Honda" debate thread going on right now on the HD forums??....:hmm2:

I bet not...:nope:

 

I wonder if a three egg omelet folded over with melted cheese and bacon on the inside and smothered in red chili would taste as good as it sounds right now - must be breakfast time

 

There is one way Harleys are better than Hondas: You can upgrade from them to Honda and end up with a better ride.

 

I ride with all Harley guys, and none have ever started that talk with me. We all just like to ride, and they ask me questions all the time about the add ons and changes I've done to mine, and I ask them about their bikes. Never had any issues at the multiple ride ins and shows we've gone to either. No debate, just ride what you like!

 

I looked at Harleys when I was looking for my bike. Not one Harley fit like my VTX 1300. Your ride what you like but we all ride two wheels and that makes it a matter of taste.

 

The HD guys that I have ridden with give me sheet about mine or did the first 20k miles, only because I had to work on it all the time. They had over 30k on theirs and have never had to work on them. Except routine maintenance. they also changed the pipes an such.
Even the wife said I should have got the Hd, if I would have know that I was going to have to work on it all the time.

 

Man, does that omelet sound good!!!

 

One of my friends asked my why I didn't get an U/C like his. I said "so I wouldn't have a bike like yours". Another HD rider asked me yesterday "what kind of bike is that? I've never seen one like that before." I replied. "EXACTLY".

Seems like every swinging duck around here has a Harley. I like being different (and saving money).

 

did someone say red chili

 

If anyone feels sudden guilt about whatever they ride..you are more than welcome to donate it to me so I can add it to the- Buy-Rick-a GoldWing-Spider-Trike-Fund

 

I had a Harley guy tell "That bike will get your knees in the breeze but a harley will get you laid"....I just told him I didnt need a bike to get laid..course he only had three teeth

 

LOL... Love it! Too true brother.

Twice the bike for half the price.

Love mine and wouldn't swap it for quids.

 

I usually get nice bike....which HD is that? I explain...it's a Honda......made in America.....and yours has 53% parts made out of the USA!
