It ain't just the bikes that puts me off harley's, it's the whole culture! I mean, I'm an individual, I like to choose my own cloths and how I have my hair cut, and being a smoker I like my windproof butane gas lighter. Now if I rode a harley I would have to wear ratty jeans, black jacket and a black open-face. I'd have to use a zippo lighter *crap* and I'd have to have a "beard"
All my friends would have to look like me or at least "want" to look like me and I would have to put on a fake " I'm heavy/cool" face every time I went out on the street. If your on a harley your trapped in the culture I recon, no escaping it
