RE: To Ape or Not to Ape?

I have the stock mini apes on my Street Bob and have problems at highway speeds for long distances. The wind really beats me up. I'm seriously considering changing out the bars.

RE: Victory Cross Country?

I prefer my Triumph to my Harley.
And Victory has been missing the mark in styling ever since they started. It's all subjective, but I've yet to find one I could really fall in love with.

RE: Anybody like the new Sportster 48?

It misses the mark for me, but I can't really explain why. I usually like mirrors mounted low like that, but the bracket looks funky. This one of those bikes that probably looks better in person.
Good possibility.
I thought the Rocker was the worst looking Harley I had ever seen.
In pictures.
Once I saw one in person, it wasn't as bad as I thought.
I still don't care a lot for it, but it got a ton better up close and personal.
I haven't seen a Rocker in person. Sure ugly in pictures.

RE: Road trip to Sturgis...

I went in 2002. It was 990 miles one way for us. We trailered our bikes. Not really my thing although there are some beautiful roads. I'd like to ride up there some time when the rally isn't going on just to enjoy the scenery.
Edit:
Gas stations are few and far between in some areas. I'm not sure either of my bikes have the range to make it.

RE: Knees

My Father is 70 years old and rides a Goldwing trike. He rides that thing 300-400 miles a day sometimes with no issues.

RE: Knees

I've just heard others recommend dual sports to people. I've never actually ridden one myself and can't speak from personal experience.

RE: Knees

How tall are you? I've heard good things regarding dual sports for taller riders.

RE: RIP Buell

I've been reading for years that Buell represents Harley's youth market, but I don't believe it. For every young guy I know that wants a Buell, there are three guys his age lusting after a Harley.
Buells sell fairly well in this area, but they don't seem to get as much support on national forums.
Harley's floundering right now because of a bad economy and some bad decisions made by their financing department. I believe we'll see the Buell nameplate make a comeback in a few years.

RE: I need a new bike.....

I have my Harley for laid-back rides, and I have my Triumph Speed Triple for more spirited rides. The Harley usually sits at home neglected while I'm enjoying the Triple.
