So yes, I know, this isnt a Harley Davidson Website.
I just wanted to say I think its awesome that so many people can come together for one common reason. Im not sure if any of you guys have ever ridden a harley but it is a kinda cool feeling.
I am also pretty sure that Harley and BMW where the first motorcycle companies. So if any of you guys do see some harley guys give them a wave and some respect and they hopefully will return the favor.

Re: Happy 105
I just celebrated Harley's 105th by buying another one. This time it's an '06 FLHPI.
Hope the R doesn't get jealous.

Re: Happy 105
am I missing something, or have you completely forgotten Triumph (1901!)?
'07 Dakar motard, '08 R1200R destroyed, and a gaggle of old Toyotas

Yeah...Uh-huh...What reason? To blind each other with chrome and deafen each other with straight pipes. Oh...and to admire each other's frilly leather chaps.I just wanted to say I think its awesome that so many people can come together for one common reason.
Yeah...Uh-huh. That's awsome. Buncha homos. (not that there's anything wrong with that)

Triumph is not the first motorcycle company nor the first U.S. motorcycle company. Same as Harley.

Re: Happy 105
Not to offend anyone on this forum that owns one, HD that is, or the HD community for that matter, but I grew up in a sugar mill and had my run of all kinds of farm implements.....don't need to have another one.....
However, just to show that I'm open minded I'll go and purchase one if a run into a three breasted Robin....yes you heard me....as it is a very rare species......
