the roads or streets are made/paved with asphalt. It's like a cheap
replacement for cement. It's soft and black oily and only last about
2 years.

Ok, thanks. Now I've got three more questions.
What's cement?
If asphalt is "soft and black oily and only last about 2 years" what
good is it?
If that's all you can ride a Harley on, what good are they?

I had a conversation similar to this with an Aussie (no offense Mr.
T). I was trying to explain stucco. You know, it's kind of like
cement. What is cement? It is concrete. What is concrete?.....
1) Asphalt is what the roads are paved with. 'Nuff said.
2) It only last two years to keep CalTrans in business.
I know-- What is CalTrans?
3) Rhetorical question.

It also has to do with the over commercializtion of Harley and its
lifestyle. It is the habit of american media especially commercial
media to tie in a product with some sort of fake lifestyle. Hence
thats where the entire egoistic attitude comes from. Harley is only
famous in USA , and even inside USA its only famous with a crowd
which thinks and belives in life as if it was a movie. the thing to
be hated here is the drive of commerical greed which makes us all
belive in fake ideals. Riding is riding, simple as that.

And it sands your skin off reeeaaal good when you slide down it at 60 mph
without protective gear. I have scars to prove the negative results of
riding in cut offs and running shoes on asphalt. Once was enough.

Right then I have never had a Harley vent so I am going to get it all out of
the way in one email!
I hate stereotyping people based on what they ride but I do get a bit ired
that every other motorcyclist aknowledges you with a wave no matter if I am
on the KLR or ZX6R but Harley riders totally ignore you.
I hate the fact that they clutter up my local twisties like a mobile
chicane. It is even worse when you are in a fast car as you havent a hope of
getting past.
I hate the fact that Harleys can seem to get away with the most ourageous
exhaust and emissions systems known to mankind and some of my sports bike
friends get pulled by the CHP for having a slightly fruity exhuast just
because it states "not for road use"
I hate the fact they have such wondefully clean machines with amazing paint
jobs...hmmm well I am jealous of the fact.
Why is that that the majority of Harley riders never wear protective gear ?
I was passed by some guy at about 70MPH on the freeway on Sunday in fairly
heavy traffic. He was wearing shorts, T shirt, sandles and what appeared to
be a german army helmet.
Off subject why dont the CHP wear protective motorcycle gear to set an
example ?
Excuse me for this steamoff

No one that I am aware of passes me in traffic, regardless of which of my machines I am riding, even my old Triumph 500. It just doesn't happen.> be a german army helmet.

Indeed. My dear old Dad made a decent living buying and selling Harley Davidsons in England for several years. Sometimes sell one to a guy, have him keep it for a few months, realize that you can't even turn a Harley around on most of the roads in rural England, then buy it back on the cheap. The dealership he worked for is a BMW/Harley dealership, so I guess a goodly portion of the list hates him.> --- In DSN_klr650@y..., "kfali" wrote: > >Harley is only famous in USA , and even inside USA its only famous > with a crowd > > I disagree with that.
