my problem with the harleys is they generally look boring. they sound cool but there is nothing like italian design.

I tried the 999 and the monster, they sound both went well and I agree on the rush, acceleration and that sudden G force that grips you.
For me its like a Ferrari, its always nice to rent for a day, enjoy, blast in it, but return it and take your comfy 4X4 to the office and fill it up from Sultan center.

fadibou.. I agree with you that the Harley is very comfortable its just about what the person wants from the bike.. the thing is a sports bike is rediculously faster and it outhandles a harley, but that is what it is built to do.. handle.. a harley is good for a chill ride.. and getting you places comfortably… the bike I have is really comfortable, way more then a Ducati 999 for example.. some people go for one or the other

NAT: I will get you on the Harley before you rule them out. You can get a 1200 cc Harley in great shape for around 2000 KD. They can do 180/190 and they are surely a more comfy ride.
Mar was so against Harleys until last month, now she wants to ride once the weather cools off.

Sporties and Harleys:
Its like comparing a Honda with turbo to an 8 cyclinder Chevrolet. Both ride fast and each has its pros and cons but the Harley is surely more comfy for city cruising or for a hop to the Marina on trafficed weakened.

Actually princess Tristar in Kuwait city gives riding courses for 200 KD, I went and asked when we were checking a Ducati bike there.. It would be for 2 weeks if you go everyday.

Oh sweetie… Nat… not in kuwait. It’ll be a cold day in hell before they let girls ride bikes in Kuwait let alone give crash courses :(

Portland, OR. Then you can apply for a DMV Motorcycle license :)

tj I took that into consideration, but the road was half empty, and I know the responsibility of another person with me. Im good enough to know how to avoid people and thats what I do best. Like you said its the crazy people on the road, but its weekday and most of the people I saw on the road were families.. and I did reach that speed, but I didnt remain there.. I knew she wasnt wearing a helmet, thats why I made it a quick ride.. so then nobody would worry! Next time with full gear that will be another story!
