Many riders advance from a metric to a Harley, how many get rid of a Harley to go back to metric?

Question:


Answers:

Has anyone purchased 1 of those 4 stroke 4 wheelers?

Can't say about going back, haven't really left. Still got the Honda, supposed to be the winter bike. Still needs work, so I'm enjoying the Harley. I'm keeping the Honda, because I like my toys. Have to have something to hack up and put together again. I must admit I like the availability of not-so-expensive parts. As far as getting rid of the Harley... Never. It suits me. I don't race, so who needs 0-60 times? By the way, did I mention it doesn't leak a drop, unlike any others I had?

Can I please have a reference url for the latest price of Bajaj Pulsar 200/250 cc and Yamaha Fazer 250cc bikes

most people buy a japanese bike first because that is what they can afford. except for the sportster most harley's run in the $12,000+ range. then later when they can afford the harley they realize that is a mechanically inferior bike and go back to the much more reliable and still cheaper japanese bikes.
harley's are a beautiful machine but function and durability is not really their strong point.

How much to build a ladys Old School Chopper?

I've been riding 30 years-Got rid of My '80 Superglide awhile back in favor of the 1500 Kaw Drifter. More ponies for half the price-plus parts don't fall off/No leaks/Breakdowns. etc. Plus I think the Drifter is prettier. More of an original retro design than the cookie-cutter Harley FXSL-MNOPQRST mix-and match models.
The true difference between the Metrics and the Harleys? Easy!
When I twist the Kaw's throttle-it goes FASTER instead of just getting LOUDER. :)

Trying hard to hook up the throttle cables at my handlebar. Cannot fit it in so the plastic housing closes.?

I agree with Doomsday....(I own 2 Drifters)....I HAVE ridden everything. I used to be one of the "sheep" who shopped for motorcycles like teenage girls shop for jeans (Its the MOST expense pair and EVERYBODIES wearing them). All it took was one ride on my pals "rice burner" and the harley was headed out the door. I can almost guarantee you that more people more from Harley UP to metric than the other way around....

How to keep the rear disc brake on my 88' katana motorcycle from locking up?

I agree,once you upgrade to a great metric it is hard to go back to your chrome pony HD.As a kid i started out on small imports with the dream of a Harley some day.Well that day came and what a rude awakening.Nothing but problems,lousy performance and headaches.Refusing to admit my folly i kept rationalizing that imports must be even worse,had to protect my ego you know.Finally good sense prevailed and i moved WAY up to a Kawasaki.
I couldn't believe what a fool I had been all those years.When it was time for another upgrade I got a Vulcan 2000.Un real quality and performance.Eats anything Harley ever came up with for breakfast.
The boys at HD got a long way to go to ever get me back on one of their contraptions

how much horsepower does a 2000 kawasaki ninja 500 have?

I rode metric bikes but once I rode a Harley, that was it for the metric bikes. I have had no problems with my Harley, no oil leaks, no sitting on the side of the road broken down, no continuous repair bills. Just pure pleasure and fun. I know I'll never ride metric again. But that's just me. Everyone I know who has a Harley started on metric bikes. I don't know of anyone personally who started on a Harley and traded down to a metric.

convert a honda cb750k into a bobber?

A Harley appears to be the Holy Grail of biking, and it is a quality motorcycle with a cultlike status. It's also very expensive. Look at all the motorcycle ads in the paper or craigslist - half of the "for Sale" are Harleys.
This isn't a reflection of how good or bad they are, but people are just suckered into purchasing something they cannot afford.
No big deal for the dealers - they'll get you approved, get the money, and you get a bike that is over rated, over priced, and over-the-top when the payment book arrives.
I'll stay with Enfield. Nobody cares what they are...

In fact, that's the worst thing about riding a Harley these days is that you are suppost to be in some "lifestyle" club. Give me a break! Nice bikes but they have to shed the image they have gotten and that is going to take some years.
