[Spridgets] Speaking of Harley Davidsons

[David Booker]

"I made my initial post early this morning before I 
went to sleep.  Obviously
this thread has taken on 
a life of it's own..." Mike MacLean 

Mike - I can
relate to every statement you just made
from the fun of setting off car alarms
(loud pipes save 
lives) to loving the HD quirks like we all love our LBC
quirks. 

I am the one who wrote about resale value - but that 
was really
more of an excuse to buy it than an actual 
reason. The bike I got was not
exactly what I wanted, 
but was what I could fit into the budget. I knew that
if time came to move to THE bike, I may not have the 
money to keep both, so
resale value entered into the 
equation. I could spend more on a Harley and
keep 
most of the value down the road, or spend less on a 
Japanese bike and
then have it be worth half to a 
quarter of what I paid. Like I said - it was
really an 
excuse to go ahead and get a Harley like I really 
wanted to do
anyway.
