I have only ever owned jap sports bikes until now. My wife made me buy a "Harley". I hate them...but not any more. Before this September you would never get me near a Harley. I bought the anniversary 1200 custom, and now I cannot ever see me owning anything but a Harley again. I love it. It´s agricultural..I love it. It´s not the fastest thing on wheels...I love it. It´s the coolest, the easiest and by far the most posiest thing i´ve ever bought. I know that some people will never be converted and will always be-moan Harleys. I say try one. I did, and now i´ll never go back.
