I think we bikers are a bit similar to golfers. We are overly interested and obsessed by the bike we ride, or the clubs we use. My revelation was that after trying many different brands and styles of bike, the most important element of enjoyable motorcycling wasn't actually the bike at all. It's the skills of the rider, the place they choose to ride and the people they keep company with. All very true with golf as well.
I know too many bikers who honestly just spend all their time lusting after the latest and greatest in two wheeled technology and end up both permanently dissatisfied with what they're currently riding, and convinced that the bike makes enough of a difference to be worth obsessing over. It's interesting to me that the current results of the survey above don't bear out my own experience. A lot of people here are pretty happy with their choice of bike. What a happy and mature bunch we all are. |

I would probably buy an Ultra Classic instead of the Road King, although I must admit being attracted to BMW's tourers...
