Is motorcycling allowed?

[Kranswurm]

I would like to think of it being a free soul when riding the bike

Thats true

[WaynejG]

I am looking at Harley's again ......... if all things pan out I should hopefully be on a bike by the end of the first quarter of the new year!

I have not looked back since getting my Wide Glide

I enjoy my Harley. It’s a different perspective.

 

When it starts which is not often in winter. Adds to the allure. Optimate is the most used tool in my house.

 

It’s lekker just to rumble and enjoy life in the slow lane

It's like I said to someone who said "at least you won't get speeding fines with a Harley" sometimes you have to slow down and smell the roses. Joke was on him though, a Harley is plenty fast enough to get speeding fines.

Does the tassels on the handlebars come standard, or is it an optional extra?

Nothing is free at Harley. Everything is extras catalogue.

How else will you know that you're moving?

Here is a Harley I would love in my garage. An XR1200 from 1995 , just 1600 kms on at R155000. For sale in Josie.

If I was to buy a Harley, it would be an XB9

XB12?

XB12?

The ratio of available talent vs displacement in that formulae would not equate to a happy ending....

Given Harley's track record with displacement vs horsepower, it would probably only have about 1.5hp more.

I would be more worried about the chassis.

Same dimensions as a RS125, it will be a lively ride. Always like them, always wanted one......

And you can pick them up fairly cheaply these days too.

That's a misconception, we don't use the tassels to make sure we moving. They used to chase the flies and bugs away.

A mate of mine had an XB12, man that thing turned on a dime. Super super short wheelbase. Slower than my Daytona though...

Mate of mine had an xb12 which I rode on a number of occasions. I could not get over how compact it was. Nice enough bike and handled well.
