My beef with HD riders is that most of them are too "cool" to wave back. That and the ones who are HD only everything else is junk, simply haven't ridden anything better/else. So they make that decision in ignorance and prejudice. That is why jap bike riders dislike HD folks. The ego and attitude of superiority, about a bike that is inferior in just about any measurable aspect. They do stuff like string up a classic CB (that we would restore)and pay money to smash it with a sledge hammer. IMHO that just = @sshole. Now with that all being said I actually prefer the HD owner who is a weekend warrior that plays biker. Because they aren't usually so full of it and will have a decent conversation at a road stop. Also I like the old biker that just happens to own a HD, they know the scoop from experience and usually own an HD because they like the crowd they ride with. I'm fine with them too. But there is a large population that thinks my jap bikes are trash, and has never ridden one. And that my sport bike is a death trap that only the insane would ride, so therefore they hate it because I must have bigger stones than them. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

Im not saying all hd riders are the same and im not saying that nobody on japinese bikes mods there bike. I used to work.with a guy thay had a 250 ninja with a 2 brothers exaust that was loud enough that i.would not ride to lunch with him because it hurt my head to much. I do have alot of respect and admiration for the older hds. The simplicity and ease of maintaince is something that i believe all bikes have moved away from. And again from the factory they are still great bikes, its the non mechanic riders that dont know what there doing that annoy me. There are alot more of the beer swilling, loud pipes save lives, weekend warriors out there then people with the sence to know what there doing. Please dont read this as an insult, you sound like you are competent enough to know that you need to put your screaming eagel mods on in the proper order not backwards if you want to.stay off the side of the road. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
