I'll bet he's glad to have his HD to hide behind rather than a Welbike :shock:

I loved my Harley. didnt have time to take it for a ride as i was always polishing it with genuine hd petrol tank polish and genuine Harley wheel rim polish. Got a bit annoyed when the price kept going up,But had to give up on my Harley when the Harley shop ran out of Genuine Harley air for the tyres. Without that i felt it would lose its originality.

For some reason, near the end of WWII, in occupied Germany, my father's Matchless was kaput and he somehow got a Harley.

He drove over it with a tank transporter.

Got another Matchless.

Now that's a statement, and there's definitely something wrong with this one!

The pressure off the back tyre doesn't seem correct 😁😁

The ones I have ridden in the past were underpowered and the brakes were very poor

One of the biggest compliments ever made to me was by a Harley dealer thirty years ago. I was at a launch party and made the "occasional" comment about the the Hardly Capable brand.

He said "You're not exactly Harley material are you Chris". I shook his hand, thanked him profusely and asked him to repeat it to everyone he ever met!

I did however buy a pair of HD leather underpants with the studs on the inside so that I could perfect my "Weekend Outlaw" look! I also bought some HD aftershave. A great big bottle with very little going on inside.

I was eventually asked to leave when I asked what cost more, the Harley Evo or the Harley Ego?

If I ever become a farmer I will reconsider my stance.
