True but you can buy a sportbike for $3000 compared to the $25,000 a used bagger will run you. You can buy a wrecked sportbike for $1500. put $1000 into fixing it. Then sell it for a profit. Try doing that with the overpriced parts for a Harley.

Riding a Harley is a lifestyle choice. It’s not a better product and it is not pushing any technological boundaries. A sportbike is for people who like speed, riding wheelies, doing track days, drag racing, etc...
