You could have just said you’ve never ridden and don’t actually know what you’re talking about.

You lost credibility in one phrase: “inherent instability of a motorcycle”.  I’m closing in on 100,000 miles on 2 wheels and can confirm that motorcycles are very stable. 

I must be blessed, I pay $39/month (plus taxes, etc.) for a 500 mbps fiber line.

The whole point is that it’s hard to teach kids right from wrong when these rich, influential men clearly never learned the lesson.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Sure it looks nice enough, but $18k for an 11 year old salvage, lifted 4x2, with 145,000 miles, a custom 2020 paint color that was clearly cobbled together in the last 2 months and is immediately being sold? CP

I clicked on this article expecting to disagree, but you’re right that 200 hp is excessive for the vast majority of riders. My sweet spot is right about 100 hp, my 800gs occasionally works a bit hard with its 85hp but is generally more than up for the task as was my Bonneville and it’s 65 hp.

I agree, I finally got a good look at one in the wild the other day and was really disappointed. In photos I’ve always thought it looked good (or at least good enough) but in person it was just.... wrong.

Strong disagree, even if you’re not riding aggressively you’re going to hit a 40-45 degree lean angle on a regular basis.  This is a horrible idea, I can’t even imagine turning a bike in the rain with a car tire on it.

Putting a car tire on a motorcycle is an insanely stupid idea.

I agree that the sales aren’t quite there yet, but the popularity is.  The fact the HD is coming out with an ADV shows they can’t ignore the trend anymore.

I agree, why black everything else out and have chrome wheels?

In high school my 64 Chevelle was broken into and they made off with my book of burned CDs (it was ~2002 and obviously not a huge loss). Luckily they didn’t try the ignition, which I hadn’t locked and would have started without the key.

THIS.

The Street Series was well known for brake failures when it was released (go back and read the reviews) and if a man gets a Sportster the HD guys with more disposable income will tell him it’s a “girl’s bike”.
Harley’s lack of innovation, or even keeping with the times, is killing them, but a lot of Harley owners…

It’s called the BMW R 1200 GS, or just adventure bikes in general. ;)

She was a 19 year old girl who went to the room because she was doing her job. She was a 19 year old girl who dropped the charges after being slut shamed by one of the most famous people on the planet. She was a 19 year old girl who took the money because I’m sure everyone in her life told her to and what other…

All the evidence points to him being guilty, his apology even partially admits guilt.  Just because a young woman grew tired of being put through hell doesn’t mean that she wasn’t telling the truth.

I assume you were also listening to Bill Simmons and Chris Ryan?  Because I had the same reaction, they were so afraid to call “the Colorado thing” what it was and it was disrespectful to his victim.

Well because:

I’m sure that’s your perspective in all things right? Entitled child.
