I’ve found that the local younger Harley guys are the ones launching down the block beside people/riders at WOT and doing burnouts at bike meets when it’s not the time or place.

I have my own post on this subject and I completely agree. The entry lineup needs a fresh page overhaul. A Rebel 500 stomps it, unless you absolutely need a new HD on the cheap there’s little reason to consider.

Well global expansion is really just a band-aid to the fact that they are losing a customer base and not filling it with new generation riders.

I think you thinking of like the Street 500/750. HD dealers have no interest selling low end models so they’ll do pretty much anything for a model up sell and to accessorize. If you do purchase one you’ll get “Why’d you buy a girls bike? Are you broke? I can lend you money” and other stupid comments. Then there’s the…

Well that sort of depends. Like the cranes in Dunkirk, I have no idea why they couldn’t be omitted in post or something, or if I saw the ‘ole jet contrails in a new western film. The best was Craig Lieberman freaking the hell out when he read the script and they were going to have Tyrese do a front flip in 2F2F…

If I had to spend the money on something very similar, I’d go with an Indian Chief Dark Horse. I don’t like the styling as much but I think overall it’s likely a better bike.

At 7sec you can see the speed hump in the back pop up. When he’s side saddled Alex looks like the Michelin Man.

Not at all. This Harley isn’t remotely comfortable to ride.

Sounds kind of brutal if you were hurting in the saddle after 100mi.

Also the suit airbag deployed when he was in the air and still managed to hold on.

It works sometimes, like in the parking garage shots could make it a bit more ‘natural’ in setting or light painting at night can look good.

Probably shot in RAW and tweaked with lightroom and photoshopped. I think it’s been lit from above. It’s a great shot (well probably shots plural) and a lot of work was probably done during shooting and in post.

GOOD

I’m pretty sure most of the CSX T-S have been rebadged as Honda Civic T-R by now, I’m surprised by this outlier.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen one, longer still that one hasn’t been rebadged a #JDM Honda Civic Type-R!

Bike life has a hold of him now, if he still has it after that last fiasco he’s definitely in its pearly clutches.

I’m puzzled by that too. I remember seeing quite a few when they released the Versa some 10 years ago but I haven’t noticed anything close to Fiesta numbers lately.

I’d rather have a nice 4Runner. CP, end of story. 

Soon to become what, Poor Energy? No Energy?

Michelin also warrantied my 195/55-16 Pilot Sport A/S 3 for 60,000km and I’ve worn all 4 down at 30,000km with normal tire rotations. This was before the + upgraded tire which they apparently improved the longevity, you can check the reviews of the A/S 3 having terrible wear: lots of customers were pissed.
