One of the most telling experiences I've had in my life on the whole Harley aesthetic was when I was younger and my family lived with my Grandma, we had a couple of neighbors who had Harley's and would ride past every once in awhile. They always had the loudest exhaust that would vibrate the antiques off the shelf and shake the house and my grandma would just watch out the window with a smile on her face as they drove by at a brisk pace. Later on down the road we had gotten new neighbors and they had a later teens to early twenties aged daughter who had a boyfriend who had a 600 sport bike (I can't remember the type probably an r6 or something) but he had a loud exhaust and the first day he drove by a similar pace to the Harley my grandmother called the front office of the neighborhood we were living at to complain that there was a motorcycle tearing up the streets in the neighborhood and was going to hit and kill a little kid. I never mentioned the irony of the situation that I had seen to her but it was always something that stuck in my mind about Harley riders vs Sport Bike riders.

I have owned several sporty Kawasakis, Yamahas and Suzukis, a small adventure BMW, a supermoto(ish) Aprilia, and a Harley Electra Glide. It doesn't fit in with any of the others. Even currently I have a ZX-6R, a ZRX 1200 S, and a BMW F650, along with the "Glide". And there's a couple things I really agreed with on this review. First, the part about how easy it is to ride. It really is surprisingly easy. Once you're even barely moving, you can balance the thing so easily. All that weight just goes away. Plus the controls are extremely easy to use. You can twist the throttle as much as you want and it won't take off and kill you. You can ham-fist the brake lever, squeeze it like it's a hand strength exercise, or you can just lift your entire foot and stomp on the brake pedal. It's all good. You don't need to practise any two-finger finessing like on good sportbike brakes. Secondly, it was what you said about "I didn't want to stop. Let's go to Philly. Let's go SOMEWHERE." It has that weird quality where in basically every measurable way it's worse than all of my other bikes. Slower, heavier, more complicated, worse handling, worse brakes, more vibes, worse build quality, worse stock lights, and on and on. But then there's that weird quality where you just "pop off to get an ice cream", but somehow you notice you're in the next county over, on a road you've never seen before, the sun has already set and it's dark as heck, and you don't really know what happened except you just wanted to keep riding to see what's down that road, and the next...

I don’t think harley riders care what people think of them. I know that whenever a Harley Davidson goes by or one is at a stoplight, everyone notices and everyone knows what it is. I have a streetglide and an Aprilia, they’re both great bikes but I have more fun on the Harley and you can do more with it and travel further with it comfortably. Maybe I’m getting old, but I love it.

What you said about the engine making a lot of noise and not a whole lot of power reminds me of the 4.6L modular V8 when it first debuted in the 96 Mustang GT. It made something like 215hp but with a muffler delete it made some pretty amazing sounds, and you can rev the crap out of it without ended up at felony speeds. There's definitely something fun about an engine that is just loud without being super fast.

Gonna have to be "that guy" on this one. Harley davidson air cooled v-twin engines do not use cylinders offset to one side or another, they are directly in-line with one another, This is done because of the (horribly outdated) bottom end used (to this day) in those engines. They use what is known colloquially as a 'fork and knife' connecting rod setup (ie; one connecting rod rides on the outer portions of the crank pin, while the other rides on the center, between the "ears" of the other one). This is done to accommodate the usage of a one-piece roller bearing on the "big end" of the connecting rods. The crankshaft is of a three piece design, with the crank pin being pressed or bolted (sometimes both) between two round flywheels that have the ends made on to them. The reason for the "weird" pushrod angles are that the rocker arms are all the same distance fore and aft (as measured on the engine with "front" being the timing cover), but the cam lobes aren't- so the pushrod angles compensate for that. Yes The twin cam was an aesthetic improvement on the evo, in respects to pushrod angles, but it was in no way an improvement over the basic design of the evo. The twin cam adds more complexity to accomplish the same task- look tp the new Milwaukee 8 engine for the motor company;s admission of this fact. Anyhoo, keep the good work up, and rubber side down.

My dad has owned a Yamaha YX600 Radian and currently, a Harley-Davidson 883 Sportster. He seems to have liked the Yamaha better on just the fact that it was easier to work on. The Harley has been a nightmare as far as ease of access, to the point where the bike just no longer gets used anymore. In terms of how it felt to ride it, he definitely liked ​the Harley there. He's used to the Yamaha which redlined somewhere between 10,000 rpm and 12,000 rpm, but he still found the Harley to be fun to hoon. He said it felt like the Yamaha spent only a few seconds in each gear and you were in sixth gear before you knew it. He thought that the Harley was slower but could at least keep up with the Radian. The Harley was a bit too heavy to pick up the front tire like the Yamaha, but instead, through first and second gear, he said the rear tire would break loose, so there was a little excitement too.

I owned a Harley and a Ninja 250 at the same time. It felt like the whole world hated both bikes...but I was having too much fun to care. The best way I deal with other Harley owners is not to listen to them or ride with them. I like riding mine alone.

I make a challenge of riding super slow when approaching stop lights even those with cars already stopped. I have no problem moving at a snails pace... sometimes almost to a stop, give it a little blip and move a few more feet. If these big ole Harley's are so bad, then why does my metric bikers friends just ride up to the light, stop and put their feet down every time? I love crawling along until the light changes and didn't have to put my feet down. But all in all, I love my huge old Harley! It's what makes me smile when I ride. I've had almost every brand of motorcycle in my 50 yrs of riding and the only other motorcycle I would buy would be a big Indian touring bike. I've been putting in lots of miles test driving them and they are very very good motorcycles. I also love the fact that any accessory I want for my Harley is easy to get but look for the same thing for a metric bike.. much more expensive and less choices. At the end of the day, ride what you like, don't dis on people for riding what they like!

I remember watching a video with James May reviewing a Yaris (maybe a '99?), he said that the 60-so horsepower it produced was class leading, granted it was a 1.0L instead of a 1.3L. My point being the power doesn't seem bad for 1990. The problem is that they still make similar power more than two decades later.

"Unnecessarily rev-match approaching every red light". I've ridden with and watched Harley riders blip their throttle all the time but they're really not actually downshifting. Just blipping the throttle for no reason with the clutch pulled in. They do their downshifting after they've come to a stop. : )

I think the closing quote really sums it up right. I honestly swear to god I'm not a harley guy...but now i have 2 of their bikes. but I love FZ07s, R1150s, CB110s, Guzzi V7s and Triumph Rockets and bonnies...but the cult of harley actually does a lot right. you can get anything under the sun branded with the bar and shield, you have a dealer support group all across the U.S.; they build everything tight and heavy and thick paint and thick chrome and a good ride with endless customization. you think that giant V-twin doesn't have enough power? They have factory-supported and warranted hop-up kits; hell, many dealers have a DYNO in their service shops. H-D has it's own financing arm, has branded insurance that's cheaper that pretty much anyone else's offerings, too. Are they overpriced? That's debatable, though some of their not-bike products suffer sticker shock from having their name on it for sure. Sitting on them in traffic feels like you're trying to gloryhole a volcano. Handling on some of the models is downright abyssmal, and the power:weight ratio is garbage. but the engines aren't arcane and outdated like many says, Not all of them are bad handling, the Dyna chassis is amazing, and it's not like they didn't try to move into more liquid cooling and beyond; the V-Rod did just that, and they're ending production this year after 17 years because they just didn't sell. The bikes are comfortable and easy to ride, sound fantastic, and will last forever provided you maintain them. These bikes are the kind that gets willed to next of kin. I love riding mine but it doesn't mean I dislike yours. if i can do it safely I'll give you the nod and the hand sign as I pass by and roll out to the middle of nowhere for a burger and the experience. It's all in the aesthetics and I'll take that any day over a generic appliance of a vehicle that doesn't move my soul.

I love your videos let me just say that first but on these V twin bikes the rear cylinder definitely does get hotter than the front some manufacturers even go as far as to oil cool the rear cylinder but not the front . For instance my Suzuki intruder 1400 has an oil cooled rear cylinder and an air cold front cylinder. Offset or not the rear cylinder gets hotter.

Screw the haters, I am not really a bike person but I respect Harleys for what they represent- you don't always need the finest, top of the line, planned obsolesence, renew every year tech avaliable to achieve appeal and greatness. If Harley Davidson was into cars they'd still be making neon landyachts with big fins, smallblock pig iron v8s and 2-speed autos. You can't go to the track *_BUT YOURE HELLA SMUG AS A PUG_* This is the bike consumers deserve...
