Most people people would probably say so what but living 30 miles from Milwaukee does make for some interesting observations. It seems there there are three types of bikes in this area, Harleys, Harleys, and the bike you buy your wife when you can't afford to buy her a Sportster.
I would have to ride more than sixty miles in any directions and to see anything but an HD on the road or parked at a bar. Mind you it doesn't bother me. I love my Drifter and if I need to remind myself of the cost of entry in the the HD brotherhood, all I need to to do stop by my buddies house and watch him polish is $30,000 Ultra Limited. No thanks I'm happy on my '99'er.
My only complaint is it is a bit like being Rodney Dangerfield. You get no respect. In all fairness the Drifter is a unique bike. The production numbers are low enough that some might even consider it rare. Three more years and I can pull collector plates on my bike. Maybe I'll take a ride to Green Bay or Dubuque where I get kudos, thumbs up and high fives where they appreciate a good looking bike and finally and get some respect.
