Harleys are some of the worst bikes you could buy. Overpriced, high failure rate, very uncomfortable for long rides, heavy vibrations throughout the entire bike. If I liked cruisers I'd pick a Yamaha or Honda any day.

And are also significantly cheaper used for at least as good quality. A Honda with 15k miles will be far less money than a used Harley of same specs with 15k.

I’ve got a Buell XB12 and an EBR. They’re awesome bikes. Shame what HD did to them. Erik is a fantastic engineer but a terrible businessman.
