What's to Like about Motorcycles

Typical or even stereotypical classic example of being " clueless "
I live in Realsville pally.Don't care to step outside the boundary marker
of reality.
If there were any more examples of what I write concerning Harley owners
there wouldn't be a set of Encylopedia large enough to catalog.
Therefore the phenomena of Stimming.No finer example of
hand flapping than waiting to see a Hog owner Blip his Throttle.
It's a given.

 

Dude...are you baked AGAIN?!

 

Stop stalking my posts or I'll have a Mod terminate You.

 

You do seem to be on some kind of intoxicant.

 

Or he is OFF some heavy drugs he should be taking...

 

Hmmmm like your claim that your local Harley dealer didn't accept other brands of motorcycles in trade?

I would suggest that your "Realsville" exists somewhere in FantasyLand because it sure as hell isn't in the United States.

Let me provide an example of "real" for you. At my local Harley dealer we have what I refer to as "The Old Guys" that are all retirees. They come to the dealership every morning at 9:00 AM to get together, chat, and drink coffee. Some of them own Harley's, some of them own Goldwings, and some ride other motorcycles. The only things they have in common is they all ride motorcycles, they all drink coffee, they are all retired, and they all enjoy having something social to do every morning now that they no longer go to work.

That's "Realsville" in Harley-Land.

 

Drag Race Ford Mustang vs Yamaha R6 Motorbike

Hi!

Friends, who has Yamaha R6? What do you think about this bike?

 

I know for fact that the Bluegrass Harley dealer DID NOT Take Metrics
in trade.Now if they changed that policy in the last couple years doesn't
change the fact they DIDN'T throughout the 2000's,especially at
their older site.
Just because they SAY in E-mail that they take Metrics in Trade is not
proof.E-mails say and state a whole lotta stuff.
This only proves how irrational you are.That you would believe,hook line
and sinker what some E-mail states.
E-mails are not generally used as legality in a court of law.Unless they were
signed,which E-mails aren't. That is why one shouldn't purchase a vehicle
or motorcycle over the internet with only an E-mail.
Truth in Advertising exists to dispel yer rubbish.
Under the Federal Trade Commission act :
Advertising must be truthful and non-deceptive
Advertisers must have evidence to back up their claims
Advertisements cannot be unfair

What is deceptive advertising :
- is it likely to mislead consumers acting reasonably under the circumstances
- is it " material " that is, important to consumer's decision to buy or use the product.

I remember and wrote about how in the mid 2000's that Harley Dealer
actually escorted { with 2 salespeople } a guy who asked about dealer
freight charges.That he'd consider buying a bike however he wasn't gonna
pay the Dealer freight charge.I remember the first time he asked about dealer freight
was automatically treated as if some cat burgular.The 2nd time he brought it up
the sales person called for the owner and they argues with the man being escorted
out of the bldg.The reason I recall this is because I had a similar experience about
a year earlier.I dared to ask about the charges that are printed out and displayed
on every model in plain sight on cardboard ticket along with the MSRP.
I remember being treated the same exact way.That the Dealer does not
talk Price and the price that is on the ticket is the price ... Final.
They will not talk price.Do Not even ask.
Right there I could have made a call to the better business bureau.
However that dealer had a notorious reputation at it's older site.
For treating potential customers like cattle.
An E-mail is only as binding { it's an Express Agreement } as an Oral agreement.
A fax may be binding if there is also a telephone conversation to prove some kind
of oral arrangement.As in Insurance coverage when you purchase a vehicle and
need to have proof on insurance before taking possession of a vehicle via a
dealership.

 

Obviously yer Kin is eminently proud of you. What else explains such
boldness.Unless you picked up this boldness trait On The Road after
reading Kerouac and thinking proudly that you are in effect capable of
crisscrossing the country in some clown costume because every town
in America is privy to clowns.
Which is exactly the character you portend ... hereabout.
Not to diminish Kerouac or Neal Cassidy but more to profile
what a Real jack-off you are.

 

We have no evidence that Bluegrass Harley Davidson didn't take metrics in trade throughout the 2000's. We have your statement that they didn't but that would have made them the only Harley dealer in the US that didn't and we do know that they welcome metrics as trade-ins today.

E-mails are used all of the time in court when they have a bearing on the case. This is true in both civil and criminal proceedings. No, an email does not have to be "signed" anymore than a "verbal" contract needs to be signed. Try learning something about admissible evidence and contract law.

Obviously the guy was being a complete ass and that's why he was thrown out of the Harley dealership.

Generally speaking the MRSP and factory charges for a new Harley Davidson motorcycle are non-negotiable with the possible exception of year end clearance sales. I've paid full MRSP and freight charges on both new Harley Davidsons I've purchased. The only charge I've ever avoided is the waiving of the set-up charge on a new purchase because that isn't a "billed" cost to the dealer.

I purchased a brand new H-D Street 750 last Wednesday and didn't have to show proof of insurance. Of course I paid cash so I didn't have a loan company requiring proof of insurance but we're talking about the dealer and not a loan company.

I really have to laugh at your posts because you really demonstrate that you don't know what you're talking about when it comes to Harley Davidson regardless of whether its the riders or the dealers.

 

Stop tap-dancing: you lied and were called on it!

Another note: bought THREE vehicles from dealers. Not one required proof of insurance!

 

Sometimes loan companies require proof of insurance before funding the loan. The dealers couldn't care less.

 

Spot on!

 

A most dangerous way of transportation. I've been in the volunteer fire/rescue service for close to 40 years and I cannot begin to tell how many people i've helped pick/scrape up off of roadways who were on motorcycles and lost control or were hit by other vehicles. Many of the bike riders don't wear helmets (aka brain buckets) unless forced to by law; many suffer debilitating injuries that leave them as vegetables or unable to function in society for life. Ever see a motorcyclist who's been hit head-on by an 18 wheeler going 55mph?? Looks a lot like a pizza that's been run over with raw meat hanging off of it.

I agree with you however, it is very economical method of transportation. That, no one can deny. Nonetheless, be safe when your out riding it.

 

Who put you in charge of lying,Burgman boy.
At least yer consistent.We now know how easy and quickly it takes you
to call out another as Lying.
Frankly not many men I know pull that crap.
Whereas most all Liberal pansies call those they differ with Liars
as quickly as it takes them to ask mommy for a cookie.

 

More tap-dancing...more ad hominem personal attacks...as usual from Fool.

 

Tap dancing about what.? Defending myself against yer rash unfounded
daily ad hominem attacks on my character.
Yer a Nut ... Bub.
It's in yer posts. They spell out exactly who and what you are.

 

You just are not willing to admit that you LIED!

 

I'm looking HARD at a new Ninja 300. That's a gorgeous little bike. 0-60 in a handful of seconds, tops out over 105mph on GPS, and gets over 70mpg.

 

Always better to buy used!

 

Truth. I'd be looking for a used Ninja 500 instead of the new 300. I agree though, the 300 is a sharp looking little bike, all the reviews seem pretty good as well.

 

Longer rides had exposed a problem with the Burgman: like many bikes, the stock seat sucks rocks. I gave an aftermarket seat brief consideration...after seeing the prices, it was REALLY brief. The saddle sore issue was solved with an Airhawk 2 cushion (and getting it was an excuse for a very nice ride through the White Mountains), but that relocated just the problem: instead of a sore tukhus, my back was killing me. I did some research, and found most backrests were also pricey...until I saw something on the BurgmanUSA forum. A guy there who posts as "bearcat" sells (for only $65 shipped!) a backrest...which I decided to try.

Installing it took 5 minutes: remove 2 screws retaining the stock butt-pad. Slide out butt pad. Slide in Bearcat. Adjust to appropriate position and secure with small hose clamps. Then, take a test-ride.

WOW! A bit more legroom and no more back pain.

 

I've been booted off the MajestyUSA forum (the burgy forum's sister forum) because I complained about something my bike did and someone replied "nobody cares." I replied "Well, nobody cares what you think" and I was booted for that.

That place is a bunch of pansies that give scooter riders a bad name.

And I disagree about buying used motorcycles, especially sport bikes. I baby my stuff and I have to assume anyone that bought a sport bike rode it like I see people riding them around here. No way do I want to buy a used abused piece of equipment.

Buying new only is not suggested if you don't hold onto your stuff. I definitely hold onto mine. I was given my HS graduation present in 1997, a new Nissan truck. I still have that truck and it's in practically immaculate shape with only 35,000 miles. I bought a new 2012 Ford Fiesta (absolutely the most fun to drive vehicle on 4 wheels for the price) and of course I still have it and I bought a 2006 Majesty new in early 2007, and I still have it. It has 21,000 miles on it. I only bought one used car in my life, and it was a mistake. I bought it for 2500, spent hundreds fixing it up and the damn thing acted up when the buyer came to buy it for 3500, and I wound up selling it for 2000. Lost my tail on that car.

I will never buy used again. New cars come with warranties. They are worth it.

 

I got my 2-year-old Burgman for a bit more than half it cost new...it had 830 miles and basically WAS new. Bikes are made to be ridden...it won't hurt them! (I'd rather have one that was ridden than one that sat, in fact.) Like any Suzuki, I could buy an extended warranty for it.

If you put 37,000 miles on a truck in 17 years, you wasted your money on it! Buying new is a loser slightly less than 100% of the time.
