what kind of a person looks at this and says “Yeah this looks good. Here’s $40,000” ?
Someone who wants a bike like that?
>>28896382same as it ever was. Boomers. You are paying for the image with HD. The story. The legend. Muh freedom. The open road. Screamin eagle. Hell yeah. Here's a thing I understand. Transport me to simple times when things wuz better. Teleport me away from my wife and I can feel the wind on my face and the rumble between my loins for a few hours. We used to be a country etc etc.
>>28896382To be fair, the Milwaukee Eight does a 0-60 in 4s with peak torque that hits at city speeds and linear power delivery. Sure it doesn't have the rush as a liter superbike but having that 0-60 muscle while having the comfort of a cruiser is a fair bike, the 40k pricetag though is a bit steep however, even for half that a new 2.5s liter superbike can be had if comfort is not a consideration, and if peak performance is not a real desire, a decent bike that achieved 80% of that bike for 10% the cost, really $4k can find a 4s bike with decent comfort of you look around the the 00s Japanese cruisers
>>28896382I think street glide looks better>>28896486BMW K1600GT is faster
>>28896382Don't forget the $1200 fringed leather rider jacket with Harley Davidson emblem. Gotta be kitted out too.
>>28896481>Teleport me away from my wifeWhy do people get married if they eventually get sick of their spouse? The tax breaks cannot be worth it.
>>28896514YA GOTTA UNDERSTAND PEGGY JUST AINT BEEN THE SAME SINCE OUR BOY NEVER CAME BACK FROM AFGANISTAN. SHE USWD TO BE A REAL FUN GAL BUT SHE TURNED INTO HER BITCH ASS CUNT MOM (RIP THANK GOD) WHO POPS PILLS AND SITS ROUND SAD ALL DAY YOU GOTTA UNDERSTAND SON REAL MEN CANT BE CAGED WERE ALL COYBOYS AND WE GOTTA RIDE ANS FISH AND HUNT IF YA DON'T FEEL THE NEED YOU MIGHT BE A TRANS JUST A THOUGHT
>>28896508Yes it's faster and quicker to 60 but it's a 6 cylinder with peak torque that hits where a Harley redlines. The k1600gt makes a sportier tourer but around city speeds the Harley's torque hits at like 2000rpm giving it brutal 0-30 launch at the cost of a slower 0-60 time. Around city speeds the k1600gt will feel under revved a lot of times where the Harley can just torque it out, Harley's get a lot of shit here but they're really fun bikes to ride really hard at slow speeds
>>28896520HE'LL YEAH BROTHER REAL MEN RIDE FREE LIKE A COWBOY AND HIS HORSE LIKE ME AND MY BIKE
>>28896526I can't tell if this is bait or bullshit. Bravo.
>>28896520>Sitting in a tree all day>HuntingIt is glorified target shooting. If you aren't running your prey to exhaustion like we evolved to do then you are not a real man and horribly out of shape.
>>28896382I dunno but they do it so I can get it off fb marketplace for $5k used
>>28896585shut up faggot
>>28896585Nigger you ain't even running, your fat ass is sat on your computer chair all day
>>28896585post your disgusting lard ass physique
>>28896481Boomers have aged out, dumbass. It's gen x and millenials buying these fucking things.Harley really fucked up with the sportster s. It's a bad indication when the best sport bike you make is the adventure bike when stripped down. Also any motorcycle company with a functioning brain knows you should make a beginner friendly motorcycle. They haven't had one in coming on 5 years.Nonetheless, this brand can't be killed as long as it makes bikes in the US.
>>28896852Yeah the beginner situation will bite them in the ass.As for OP it's basically someone who really wants a harley but doesn't like the wind so he gets all the touring fairings and shit. It's not bad by itself but the aforementioned K1600 or unmentioned-yet Goldwing will do the long range touring thing better while nobody will think you're cool in a boomer sense like they would if you rode HD without fairings.
>>28896907>they would if you rode HD without fairingsDoes this mean I'm cool? Ignore the chicken.
>>28896382its for peacocking
>>28896970Peacocking for martha the hag at the bar that lost one titty to cancer?
>>28896977They're called cruisers because they're for cruising.
>>28896968The chicken is cool too. You should take him for a ride.
The last real harley was a shovel.
>>28896382I'm surprised nobody has said blacks. Go to anywhere with a major population and you'll see whole packs of them riding around on blinged out baggers, often really expensively modded too. It's not a coincidence that a lot of Harley's models are starting to go for huge wheels and skinny tires.
>>28896514it's cheaper to stay married
>>28896481>BoomersYou'd be surprised how many early to mid 30 year olds are buying into the HD meme.
>>28897501I mean, I got my first Harley at 39. It's an EFI 1200 sporty The first Harley I rode was the VRSCA dad bought as a present to himself when I graduated high school.
>>28896977Yeah lol it's pretty grim
>>28897501I sorta get it because they finally have some decent power now. But the price on them, not to mention how ugly a lot of them have gotten.
>>28897501I'm 39 now and kinda want one. Wouldn't be my main bike though, just something to meme around on.
>>28896382Hammerhead ass motorcycle, it looks so fucking gay. Isn't half the point of bikes to be on a cool or fun vehicle? This shit somehow looks even dorkier than an ADV bike.
>>28896382A coworker of mine bought one. I was driving with him on a work trip and we were casually discussing how much money the trip would get us and he said he needed it because he bought one of those for $44,000 and I had to physically bite my tongue to avoid saying something. Like a month later he said he was trying to sell it. He asked me if I wanted to buy it and I politely declined. Oh yeah, he financed it as well.
>>28896847>>28896799I never claimed to be a hunter, fatty. Now hop on a tredmill, "hunter".
