    Strange that.

    The harley was a bit of a bitch to drive.
    It was a really powerful bike, but it was also really,really heavy, so most of it's power was devoted to moving it's own weight.

    Not like Japanese bikes which are for the most part, extremely efficient.

    The harley would probably hit around 120 mph, but the thing is, the huge pistons banging away in the engine when you start going speeds >=70 mph, literally start to rattle your bones, so it's not that the bike can't go faster, just that going faster would mean that there would be so much vibration from the monster engine, that you probably couldn't even see the road.

    That said, when I go back, I will get a Harley.... I mean who goes to the states to drive a Japanses bike?
