But he's not hung up on Harley's like some people are, so he's not holding my purchase of a drifter against me - he was actually admiring my bike.
That's what I assume to be regarding harley's bikes: I don't think I'll ever buy one, since they're not worth all the money of their costs; but I admire those Harley wich are customized enough to meet my taste...

If only I could, I'd go with an early Indian or even more, with a Kiwi Indian: IMHO those bikes are worth each and every cent!

That is like being proud of a snake-oil salesman who uses guile and deception to take money from hard working people's pockets.The only thing I could say in their favor, it's that Harley's marketing guru's made well their job... but I dunno if that's really something to be proud of...

Yeah... and you should also consider this is the case in wich the student has surpassed the master!!

Ergo, arguably they adore over-priced inferior design and inferior quality. What kid of brain does that? (See answer above)
