you are not paying for a "name" with Harleys. Your paying for what alot of bike riders consider the best bike out there.

Well I have to say I found a company who runs the same lanes and same freight and a little better pay. My last job I drove a wore out freight shaker Century, and a 387 Pete. This job I drive a 379 OMG My boss sprung for all the chicken lights all down the side on the bumper. SHARP looking truck. Have been complimented numerous times on it. O/O specs. Love it.. Backing it a little harder than the others but its worth it to drive this very very nice Pete. Just get some experience and you can find what ever you want just keep your record clean. I drove a pile for 2 years. Before stumbling onto this company.

Best in terms of what? They ain't the fastest, not the best build quality and they don't handle the best...so best bike out there in terms of looks?

One man's meat is another man's poison.

Personally. I think your paying for an image when you buy a Harley.

There,s a bloke lives along the road and he bought a Harley which he very kindly lets us listen to, most mornings at around 06:30.
Imagery? I have an image of me taking an extremely sharp garden implement and wrecking the bloody thing :lol: :wink:
