Why buy a harley when you can buy a more reliable bike?


I'm a bit confused. Japanese manufacturers make very similar looking/sounding/feeling cruisers as Harley-Davidson. However, the reliability of the Jap. bike is much higher than the American one (reflecting the automotive industry). The thing that differs from the auto industry is the American bike is grossly more expensive than the Jap one.

Is it really just heritage/patriotism that's keeping these Harleys on the road? I'm sorry, that seems silly to me.

I own 4 Harleys none have ever left me stranded.One is a '59 Panhead.Anyone got a '59 Honda they'd care to put on the line?
A Harley is the best bike in the world. Everyone that doesn't has a bike but it isn't a Harley is a " Harley wanna be"
I came to the same conclusion and this time i got a Kaw Vulcan 2000 LT.Maybe you can say i bought with my head this time.Whatever the reason i ended up with the sweetest bike i have ever ridden.(Yes,I have certainly owned and ridden harleys,And can easily afford any ride i want).BY the way"Bubbly" is quite incorrect in his assumption
since i'm going on year 3 of owning an XL1200R roadster sportster with zero problems in either maintanence or reliability, u need to leave the amf days behind and get with reality. amf and harley parted ways back in the early 80's....and what year...or should i say...century is it now?

parts for 1940 harleys are still available to be had. can u find any parts for a 20 or 25 year old piece of rice?
Harley's hold their value a whole lot better. They are also very much more reliable than they used to be.
Yeah Thats true, Harleys Suck I like Choppers better, am More of Sport bike Companies like Ducati, Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda, Kawasaki, Triumph, Aprilia, Mv Augusta, bmw kinda but They need more motorcycles. I think Harley are just a heritage or tradition, some people look at them as big boy motorcycle but they suck, get a chopper
