You're right about HD. As to why, many others have
addressed the issue in this forum. Sometimes it is
Freudian, sometimes escapism, sometimes ego fodder
After all, isn't everyone's image of the meanest
bad-ass character to ever walk the valley, a HD
rider, leathered, long hair and a tatoo?
And sometimes its just because they want a Harley.
HD does have great marketting. And, they (now) have great bikes. Perhaps we should all be pleased
with what WE ride, and be pleased that all others
enjoy what THEY ride without jealousy or condescension.
