Hi, Triumphs are very popular here where I live. Harley's also but it seems to be a big image thing, like if your not on a Harley your not good enough, well we own three Jap bikes and love them all. I personally like Harley's but don't like the ego that seems to go with them. It shouldn't be an image thing, you ride what is good and comfortable for you, we all ride, that's what sets us apart from the cage drivers lol.

I don't know about the US or the UK but in Australia, motorbike riders are sometimes treated as "second class" and are often under attack from all corners, especially the government. Here in South Australia they are pushing to make motorcycle gangs like Hell's Angels an organised crime outfit, they have already succeeded with one gang, so I hate to think what would happen with other motorcycle clubs.

Ginja- happens everywhere. There are a class of HD riders that have no use for the rest of the riding community. It's just best to avoid them. Typically, they consist is 1%ers or RUBS, but it's not exclusive to those groups. The guys here will typically ride a variety of bikes and own a variety of bikes. As for Angels and their 1%er counterparts go- the US treats them the same as they are treated in Australia.

I was thinking along the same line.

I was thinking along the same line. I am on the search for my first Harley and was wondering if some were worse then others for fixing/replacing parts. I thought about that when looking at my minivan. I have owned many but 2 out of 3 of the same make needed the towers re welded. Just giving an example..

Maybe its not the same with bikes but Id still like to ask around before I buy and a dealership isn't going to tell me something like that..
