    The light turns green and we're on this beautiful two lane blacktop that goes about 12 miles with no passing zones. He's going so slow I'm falling asleep and the cars behind me are adding up. Finally an opening, check the mirrors for cars or the law, twist the throttle, gave him a wave as I passed and he disappears in the mirror. I really wasn't going all that fast but I guess just jeans and a t-shirt tend to slow you down.

    You are in Pennsylvania.....one of Harley's "home states."
    And yeah, I would do that all the time to Harley riders - either on Isleen or Saorla.
    Cheers,

    Yes, just some. I've been riding over 50 years and I think it's a maybe gotten a little better. What cracks me up is when I see a Jap truck towing a Harley on a trailer or a hardcore Harley neighbor with a driveway full of Jap cars.

    I even had a Vrod for a couple years and got about the same treatment. My hardcore Harley neighbor with the driveway full of Jap cars said "DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A HARLEY" when I showed him my new Vrod.

    Too funny!

    I also laugh at the "double standard" some HD riders exhibit...Bad mouth Jap crap bikes,,,love my HD and his driveway has a Toyota truck, Nissan car, and a Kubota riding mower in the garage.....Just saying!!!
