More noise than anything,waste the money really when compared too jappas americans indenial japanese techs more innovative heck they finnally just made harleys water cooled-reminds me of the supercharger/turbo argument because turbos were more to the japs liking and after an american club blew three new motors from snapping supercharge belts they finally went to turbo setup and it hasnt happened ever since so why dont people do themselves a favour.

Turbos and superchargers obviously do different things and are consequently used on different engines for different reasons.....no?

What is obvious is that you are wrong.

Certainly turbos and superchargers work in very different ways, but their purpose in life is the same...to force more air into the combustion chambers.

Ok, 23 people who know nothing about Harley-Davidson motorcycles, other than they "do not like them".

Your original post was about some jackasses, riding stupidly, who happened to be riding Harleys.

There are plenty of instances of jackassery taking place on every brand of motorcycle.

It is one of the reasons that I tend to not ride with more than one or two other bikes. For some reason, regardless of the bikes being ridden, when the group gets larger than four the collective IQ seems to stagnate.

Your point about "used on different engines for different purposes is certainly valid. The operating characteristics between turbos and superchargers are vastly different.

Yea which is why the r35 gtr will smoke them both in performance at half the price.

If you have to ask the price you can't afford it!

People who can't afford a Harley will always complain about them. Freudian soure grapes. They may not be the greatest performers but they are the coolest bikes on the road.

What crap!

They may get a lot of attention while parked but on the road, they're embarrassed by faster, much cooler sportsbikes.

All show, no go!

I agree but they are still the coolest bikes on the road.

..and I always thought the appeal was that the engineering and design was basic so they could be worked on and modified by the rider. I.e change the camshaft without dismantling the engine.

Some people think that the fastest is always the best. I disagree.

I have owned two Aprilias in the last few years. Excellent bikes. The bike in my avatar is an Aprilia. Too bad they are unavailable so far in Thailand. I'd love to have another.

Only Harley riders think that. That's why a lot of them are so arrogant. But hey, what better choice of bike is there for a loaded, overweight, elderly wannabe badboy.

Is that comedy time already? Beside the fact that Hardleys are not even bikes but a chromeworks show, even my wife that could not care less about bikes.was able to observe that they are THE choice of aged or aging guys.

Now, there's nothing wrong getting old but I'll get myself a jap or euro sport tourer instead, and a jap sports car cor the raining days.

And you dont age on a sport bike easily. It keeps your brain and body fluid and fast too!

"It keeps your brain and body fluid" That's interesting. Is there a little plastic container under the seat?

O.K. then: Replace 'not cool at all' with 'looks freekin stupid'.

I ride a Honda 125 Wave and enjoy every minute when doing so. I couldn't care less less if I look cool or not.

In my mind, the best bike you can have is the one you're riding at any particular moment.

If you like bikes, you like bikes.

If you have a need to critisize other riders, you're missing the point.
