2 years ago my neighbor (a retired Palm Beach Co. Sheriff), picked up his brand new Honda Vylkarie(Sp?). The thing was the fasted thing on the ground he ever rode. His part time job as a learjet pilot afforded him the opportunity to ground race a learjet (Model unknown to me). He beat it everytime on the runway.

Nov., 2001 he traded in his Honda and purchased a 2002 FLHTC Peace Officers Special from New Smyrna H-D.

He told me it was the most comfortable bike he ever owned. He said the Honda was actually too smooth and he didn't feel the road they way he wanted. He told me he's keeping this Harley forever. It's not as fast as the Honda, but the feel of the bike is unmatchable.

Now all I do is rib him for what his kids told me he said about leaky, stinky, loud, ugly Harleys. :-)
He's presently on a 30 day bike excursion with his wife and his stinky ugly 2002 Harley.
AND>>>>>>He took my saddle bag liners for the trip. He better not smudge 'em!! :-)

You betcha! The biggest unspoken fringe benefit from owning a Harley can be summed up in what I've had a couple of women tell me,"Harley's vibrate best!".
