Harley Riders: Do you ever wonder what's it like to go fast?

Question

BECAUSE HARLEYS ARE SLOW AS h**l. I mean you guys must get bored of just going slow all day? No? I have never ridden a Harley, never want to, mainly because I found absolute joy and exhilariation in riding a sportbike. Getting tunnelvision in 2 seconds flat is probably my favorite past time...not to mention the feeling of sliding back against the passenger seat because of the secondary fuel injectors taking you to 15,000 RPMVILLE

im sorry i just want to see some funny responses im bored at work bahaha

Answer 1

Yosammity Samn can't go fast because his big beard with frito crumbs in it will fly up in his face and cover his eyes. His handlebar mustache will curl up and clog his nostrils. Then he won't be able to see or breathe and probably end up in a guard rail just like us little zits and wads. Since he's not wearing a helmet or has on a half shell, his brains will be.... Still at the bar he just left.

Answer 2

I knew what it was like to go fast before the j**s even started making bikes.

Answer 3

Ridden GSXR 1000 and several other almost race ready machines. After going one thirty or one forty for about 3 minutes I'm ready to fall asleep at the handlebars. For me they are just to well engineered for just cruising around the state. They aren't exciting unless I'm doing something that will either kill me and/or somebody else, or get me so many tickets that I'd never see a drivers license again. With the old Harley's, you have the wind blasting you off the seat, the vibration numbing your hands, feet, and butt, and there is always the chance that something will fall off that you need to keep the bike running. Now that's fun and exciting and I don't have to do 100MPH plus to get the feeling.

File this under; different strokes for different folks. And that's the long and the short of it.( pun intended )

Answer 4

Who do you little Zits think you are trying to impress ??

We also rem lower insurance rates before they started scraping you Idiots off the road at about 30 a day and no helmet laws untill your brains started stinking up the guardrails

And Out Clubs Included the cops started really getting worse after your 120 mph pass through town You little wads have really helped Motorcycling a lot havent you

Answer 5

YA YA but can you ride all day and most or all night ?

I miss the speed of my rice it was fun but as ya get older ya slow down some times.. Not me

Answer 6

maximum speed limit in canada is 110 kph,my sporty does that all day long,comfortable as he11,works for me

Answer 7

First off, 95 percent of stats are only correct 16 percent of the time.  Second, Why do you care again?  Third, you are actually that other guy who dis's people for their rides, Magz something or another, aren't you.  Fourth, you want to go fast, jump out an airplane that's going so high you need oxygen to live through it.  Fifth, if yer bored at work, go to the religion side and side with the atheists vs the Non; those people will dish out so much hate, it'll make you vomit with rage

Answer 8

If you little boys would start growing up the motorcycle community  wouldn't have an image problem. Or such a high fatality rate. Or such high insurance rates.

Real men go to a race track (or Bonneville) for those kind of thrills. We never do it by endangering everybody else on the road.

Answer 9

I remember what it was like when I did not have to listen to people like you flap their lips alll day about what they rode.

Answer 10

I get bored with all the speed freaks smashing into guardrails on the highways and making bikers in general look like dumba**es. I'd rather see some ole f**t going slow and enjoying the ride{on what ever bike} then see some smart a** know it all splattered all over the freeway.

Answer 11

LOL.  I get a thrill that my motorcycle runs at all.  There's nothing like having the rear cylinder cutting in and out, which makes the motorcycle jerk forward then lag.

Please excuse me, I have to go clean off my fouled rear spark plug again.

Answer 12

I've ridden a few of them, and I always get bored...

my uncle bought a fatboy a couple years ago, and he always rides it up to my house in the summer....

It's marginally more comfortable than the 'Bird, but not much...

and trying to take a curve at any speed? terrible...

I was rubbing floorboards on a "Nominal" turn

Another thing people don't realize is "how" to ride a sport bike, it's somewhat different...

DO NOT support your upper body with your arms, your wrists won't last, and your response will be sluggish...

you need to support your weight with your legs/knees, and keep the weight off the bars so you can use them to turn...

Answer 13

While I am not a fan of Harleys, I know every Harley made will run fast enough on the highway to keep up with traffic.  

There is no need for a bike to be able to run 150 plus mph.

Do you ever wonder why your insurance rates are so high?  

Sport bike riders are the ones giving the motorcycling community a bad name, not the chopper riders.

Unless you are running on a race track, there is not much use for sport bikes.
