- June 19, 2016, 14:44:24 PMI work near the Harley plant in PA. Yes, there are a lot of Harleys in the area. It is about the only V-Twin bike you see around here. Sport bikes are really popular around here though with the younger guys. I'd say it's about a 50/50 split between Harleys and sport bikes around here.
I stopped at a local biker apparel/leather shop near the plant a few weeks ago. I started talking with the owner a bit. He collects old Indians and bought a new Polaris Indian when they first came out.

- June 02, 2016, 06:41:03 AMWith my wife I don't get no respect. I made a toast on her birthday to 'the best woman a man ever had.' The waiter joined me.
When I was a kid I got no respect. The time I was kidnapped, and the kidnappers sent my parents a note they said, "We want five thousand dollars or you'll see your kid again."
I tell you, with my doctor, I don't get no respect. I told him, "I've swallowed a bottle of sleeping pills." He told me to have a few drinks and get some rest.
With my dog I don't get no respect. He keeps barking at the front door. He don't want to go out. He wants me to leave.

- June 01, 2016, 22:10:10 PMI know I have mentioned this several times before in this site but I ride a Drifter in Harley Country. 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.
