I have owned many different brands of motorcycles and I loved every single one of them. I can't imagine tying myself down to one brand my whole life, how boring. Harleys' are raw, very mechanical machines that are unnecessarily heavy, slow, and loud (and expensive). I can't for life of me understand why one would make such a big monetary investment for a product that has been proven many times over to be unreliable, and inferior to other products.
Edit: In regard to being a biker of a rider...I don't know what I am. I will gladly ride the he!! out of any motorcycle handed to me regardless of the brand, and have a blast doing it. I just really like riding anything with two wheels.
