I'm not bashing them, I love the looks and sounds of them, especially the vintage models. I just can't deal with the weight and vibration of them anymore. Granted, many are not as bad as others concerning vibration. But to many, that's one of the allures. And I can attest that there are plenty of old single cylinder thumpers that will rattle the fillings out of one's teeth, again, to many it's part of the attraction.
The older Road King in white is especially beautiful. I will always love Harelys, but at this point in my life, it will be from afar.

Old BSA 441 Victor was probably one of the worst I can recall.
