You have something against 1931 technology? So what if they vibrate and handle like 900 pounds of dead weight. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think my old diesel is an ugly spud but some people like their looks.
I think you should run right out and spend upwards of $20,000 on a Harley yuppiecycle. Then take the friggin mufflers off so you too can be cool beyond your wildest dreams.
All Harley owners don't fit in there but the antique design of their bikes do. I'd be willing to bet that most of them love their machines and have fun riding them. Fun is what we are here for, eh?
People that drive VW beedles all their lives have no idea about the difference that Porsches offer. Ignorance is often bliss.
BTW, a fat old man like me has owned Harleys in the past. Today I'm still riding a modified GSXR 1100 Suzuki and a ZX-10R Kawasaki w/turbo.
A new Suzuki GSX1300R (Hayabusa) is due in June
