Default I've got 2 bikes, but they're not Harleys...

I've got a '98 Honda VFR800 and a '90 Honda HawkGT, both of which fall in the sport-bike category.

You're only crazy to get a bike if you choose to ride it without the proper training/experience and riding gear. Of course riding around the city isn't the safest thing, which is why you'll usually find me up north in the twisties .

Default Well I used to ride an old CBR 600....

Long ago my best friend had one and I rode it a lot, I wanted to get one but my folks said I was stupid so I listened. As I've gotten older the Harley mystique as well as the sound is what's intoxicating. I was thinking of getting a low-end Sportster 1200 and going to class to learn, I'm still just in the "thinking" phase but it's calling me.

If I get a bike, I'd go riding with you up in the GA mtns but forget in town. I cringe in my S4 sometimes at these idiots that can't drive.

Not a Harley- a V-max. Goes real fast, especially in a straight line! 0-60 in 2.6 seconds.

Default Good so I'm not alone.

You don't buy a Harley to go fast although they can, sport bikes are for that and I didn't like what I became on a sport bike. In one word, reckless!

For you Harley guys, do you find the Harley as an easy to ride bike? I have never been on one, looking at remedying that situation but compared to a CBR it's GOT to be easier and more comfy!
