Buy what makes you happy, the important thing is to enjoy the ride be it scooter, sport bike or cruiser, made in Japan, China, Europe or America, just get whatever gives you vibes, enjoy the ride.
What’s anything worth? If it important to you and “worth it” to you, then yes. I have owned many bikes in my years of riding and my Harley’s have been the most special to me. Each to their own my friend. We are lucky with the choice we have.
Triumph is the brother of Yamaha. When England motorcycle business went in the toilet Triumph, BSA and Norton riders moved to Yamaha. Go ride a new Triumph you’ll be impressed and at an affordable price.
Yeah I;ve heard nothing but great things about the Triumph since I've had this channel. I used to hate their headlights but they are growing on me now. I'm trying to hook up some test rides.
Cruza, I’m 62 & have been riding Harley’s & Supersports for over 40 yrs. Currently I have a 2014 GSX-R 750 & found a Harley Superglide in mint condition for only $6,000. No reason to spend $30,000 on a Harley. I love both bikes for for many different reasons. Harley’s are a blast to ride & so are Supersports, ride what you like!
I have a V-Rod, Night Rod. Don't plan on ever having another Harley, but you never know what the future holds. I'm really looking to get a Busa, or another BMW.
How has the V-Rod been to you? They look sick af modded. If you rode a XDIavel you'd probably sell it tho. It is hard to go to another cruiser after that bike.
C Cruzza, I have been a Hardley Hater for a loooong time! But, after 40 + years of riding, hey, if you want to spend your hard earned money on a Harley, go for it! To me, they have been the same as a woman who flashes her Coach purse. "Hey ya'll, look at this fancy purse!" Same for a Harley. Lots of bling, and mostly about an image thing.
Cycle Cruza, you may need to look into the baggers/touring bike from Harley or Indian if you want that V-twin character. Indian if you want better quality out the box, Harley if you want a more sexy bike. Then you have Honda & BMW. They got women 5’2” riding those heavy bikes and there is technique in picking them up if they drop. The long distance trips will give you more content. God bless👊🏽🙏🏽
IMO a Harley isn't worth it. For the reason being my brother bought a Harley for his 2nd bike. He paid over 30k for his bike and then dumped another 7k in accessories and Harley merch. Then he lost it in a parking lot at a bike night. While my MT07 stood out like a sore thumb in a sea of Harleys. I lmao when he went to sit on a bike that was practically identical to his and it's owner, she blew up on him saying get the F**k off my bike 😂😂
lol 30k+ for a bike is crazy to me unless its a H2 for collection. I bought my MT-07 at a Harley dealership, it was the only Yamaha they sold there and it was their best selling bike, so much so that it was always on backorder and I have to wait a couple months. Honestly, I prefer my Yamaha Davidson. 😂 Much better value and more fun. 🏍
@@CycleCruza Exactly. If you have 30k burning a hole in your pocket or bank account then buy a MT07 and your gear and spend around 10k and still have 20k to buy whatever else you want. You could legit get the MT07, your gear, buy a decent used car for when it's absolutely pouring outside, pay for insurance and still likely spend less than buying a Harley.
I sold my ktm sat an picked up new gsxr750 Tuesday. I can tell you I will never ever want another ktm after riding the suzuki. It would have to be a 1290 or a 1390 for me to look at it. They suzukis sound is just intoxicating, and how nible an rocket fast it is blows my mind.
MT-07 with 270 Degree Firing order has the same firing patter as an HD I have been told. I have never checked the Math .. I simply don't want a Motorycle with forward foot controls..
270 degree offset isn‘t the same as a Harley v-twin. The 270 crossplane emulates a 90 degree v-twin (or l-twin if you‘re pretentious like Ducati). Harleys have a really narrow angle at 45 degrees. This was originally done to allow for more hp while keeping size down, for the same reasons manufacturers nowadays use inline twins. This gives them that iconic bang-bang-pop sound.
I’ve owned four Harleys and none of them had forward controls. I still have my 1997 xlh. Like cycle cruza I also have a 2023 mt07. Both bikes will turn you into a hooligan but the sportster does so with brutal acceleration. No my sportster isn’t stock but it’s reliable and gets 46mpg on pump gas. It runs mid elevens in the quarter and low sevens in the eighth. I bought it used ten years ago for $2800 and have about $3500 in mods on it. Mt yamahopper was $ 10,500 out the door and runs mid eights in the eighth.
@@davidleonard8369 My 2015 was $7,400.00 with taxes and title in 2017. I also have a 2008 Buell Ulysess, It ran 12.77 at 107 MPH .. It wheelies too much off the line .
Tell it like it is dude! I have a 25 year old sportster. Some years back I had a bad accident & while I was getting over it I had the thing almost all the way apart. Suspension is by Showa, starter motor by Hitachi, headlight by Bosch, tail light plastic made in Canada. New rear reflector, in a genuine HD spare part bag - made in Finland. Those are just the ones I remember. That aside, maintanence is very easy. I had to replace the starter motor solenoid a couple of years back, will have to do the fork seals soon. That's all I've had to do to it in the 14 years I've owned it, apart from keeping the oil & filters up to it. Price-wise, I'm down under in Oz, here it's still possible to get a nice evo sporty for less than AU$ 10k (6-7k freedom bucks). Wouldn't know about the big twins, I don't like 'em anyway. As for HD's newer stuff - they got nothing I want, they're stupid expensive, and I don't think HD want you to do your own work on them anymore.
Here is my thoughts about HD: heritage, icon, beautiful. Some models are actually cool. Other are comfortable. I completely understand people who buy them. Me personally I am a Guzzista guy (owning a Moto Guzzi V7), after 5 boring Hondas.
I got a 23 Road King Police(it was brand new) for $18k all in. Loving it so far. Normally I don’t like cruisers but the police seats are tall. Comfy too.
Depends on what model and where you are. Here in Thailand the new Nightster 975 cost just a bit more than a Rebel 1100 and cheaper than a Triumph Bobber. After a Dynojet tuned the 975 makes around 100 hp at the wheel and reach the top speed of 270 km/h on a dyno. It is lighter and faster than both a Rebel 1100 and a Bobber. So overall is is a very good buy over here. Same as a Pan American. It is cheaper than a GS1250 over here but still as much good. A very good buy. However old Harley guys will not accept those as a "ReAL hArLEY" though. 😅
I've got a 2021 HD sport glide. Best of both worlds it's a cruiser and a tourer. Most comfortable bike I've ever ridden. Try out one. I'd be surprised if you did love it.
Just a question out of curiosity CC, let’s say you were riding at 50-70mph and a car pulled out in front of you and you couldn’t swerve out of the way and you tbone their car, do you think your airbag vest is durable and reliable enough to prevent severe spinal cord damage and from becoming a paraplegic?
I wear a Spidi Airbag vest. To answer your question, learn a high level of riding skills (advanced riding courses, parking lot training, emergency stopping, and swerving) to be your first defense in avoiding an accident. Those tools have saved my life on a number of occasions. Then, my Airbag vest is worn as a last resort for protection from a crash. I've been riding 40+ years and never went down.
The new line up of HD's looks good but have to see if they hold up. I considered a Harley but price was factor and, I concur, the value for dollar just isnt there even when buying used. I still say the only HD CC might like is a VROD muscle as it has very good performance reviews and a standard seating position. However, if CC wants a Harleyesque cruiser riding experience there are plenty of Japanese made bikes that outperform and out price HD.
Got 4k miles so far on a '23 Honda Rebel 1100. I LOVE IT! Great price, performance, etc. Originally was looking at a Breakout also. Glad I chose what I did.
I am a harley owner bu I have the vrod. I have always liked that look of a muscle cruiser. All the other bikes I liked in that style were way more when it came to cost.. I have had mine for 5 to 6 years now. I love it. With the new harleys I think u should try the Sporters S, the Pan Am, and any bike that has at least the 114 and up. if you are lookin for that TQ, the 114 and up has pretty much all of it. Yes they are heavier but at speed you won't notice... cheers.
Im pretty sure harley Davidson has never claimed their bikes are 100% made in America. Maybe the frames and motors but there's more to it. For me it was just a special feeling riding a harley. That said I have a yamaha now
The best bikes HD ever made are the least respected. The Sportster 1200 and V-ROD are two great, affordable, reliable bikes. But Sportsters are girls bikes and real HDs aren’t V Rods.
CycleCruz...brotha, I would love to see you test ride and react to your feelings on test riding the 2024 Triumph Rocket 3R or 3R Storm Edition. I would love to see what you think about it...
@@mikeskidmore6754 Mike, the new Rocket 3R Storm can hit 280km/h or 173 mph and that is without a tune! Get a Brentune on that thing and it could hit 180mph; plenty of speed..haha...but it's smooth and comfortable and very nimble. Would be easy to lane split if living in california...Also, a person can have the pegs moved up .59 inches so that there's no scraping the pegs if canyon carving
Every time I see a sales ad for Harley dealership…… they always say “ Call for Quote “ for price!! That just turns me off…if you can’t post the price of the bikes, that just tells me you’re asking too much $$. I’ll stick with Japanese manufacturers!!
Agree…MT07…best all rounder street bike for the city. Put a nice Akaorovic pipe on it…then it sounds like a Ducati. Neither HD or Ducati can match it. Australian price new $14 000 - bang on value. I have always wanted a HD, I can afford one…but I think they are way overpriced
I walked away from H.D years ago. Overpriced and unreliable. They knock your nuts in with parts and maintenance. Definitely not for blue collar dudes anymore. I love my V Strom 800 DE
😮 $700 month on groceries oh my. I tend to spend 45-70 a week at store. Not including misc meals may get way home from or ordered into work. I get angry every time I walk by the hard salami. Have not bought any in years like $7 now. And $5 for bag of chips. Groceries are nonsense. For whatever reason I saved a receipt for 20 oz bottle of pop back in day. $.79 back than. 1996 I think was. I'm getting old 😂
I would never buy a new harley but you can find some good values if your buying used. Harleys made from 2008-2017 with the twin cam fuel injection engines are bulletproof and can be found for pretty cheap on fb marketplace. A harley would definitely be good content for the channel
I love Harleys the bike, and own one myself, but hate the corporate side, after they went woke I will never buy another or any part from a dealership. Harley Davidson is dead to me. Love my Harley, but when she's gone that it.
Pan America Special Amazing bike ! Would love to have at least 3-5 different bikes ,but if 1 bike is a swiss army knife it's this bike ! " American Made " term outdated
Come on bro, it would be same as with the KTM, you could use it for 6months/1year and then sell it. Plus like you said, they hold their value teally well. If you don't like the traditional models, what about the Pan America or the Sporster S?
I dont normally comment on youtube but i had to for this i had a heritage softtail beautiful bike loved the sound and look but could not get over the "harley tax" its ridiculous how much it is to maintain let alone even buy one im looking into getting a vulcan 900
Yo Cycle Cruza the New Triumph 765 Triple is a Dam torque Monster. And Here is the dam Kicker. You ready it comes Black and that Florescent Yellow that you were all the time. This Bike was made for You Cycle Cruza. Bruh just check it out on Chase on 2 wheels. He put a new exhaust and that brought out the beast. 😂
My dad loves his HD. Says It's easy to work on. My question is, if you're gonna spend over 36K for a bike, should you have to work on it? I felt my soul leave my body when I asked him lol. Besides, their insurance rates are insane. Can't endorse their Woke policies either. If you want cruiser style, just get an Indian.
I do like the look of some of their models. But.. I appreciate good handling and good brakes. And I really like light weight. Plus. I just don't see a good value. But.. if you don't mind spending the money? Get the Harley 😅😅😅
I had a Harley. 2016 iron 883 blacked out and a lot of nice parts. Thing ripped and looked bad ass but god was that a boring bike. Really only good for back country road cruising imo
True Harley Davidson parts are mostly made in China by QJ motors which bought the Benelli and the Keeway company... certainly the engine parts..they even produce some off shoot Harley Davidson like bikes ..just check out QJ motors mate 👍😂
SO what is the deal with Harley Davidson COMPANY . I saw a video of a HARD CORE PATRIOTIC HD owner destroying his HD bikes .Literally his used them as TARGETS in his shooting Range. Yeah Japanese Bikes ALL THE WAY . Yamaha Honda Susuki THE BEST
U should buy a Harley. I don't think you are very popular in the sport bike community like you once were. Maybe it would give you a new crowd to appeal to.
I wouldn't own a harley anyway, since they went woke and recently kicked the american biker to the curb. Theres plenty of other cruiser bike company's.
Can I be the (supposed) first to say Nah. You don't need a Harley bro. Stay on the whatevers. That's fine. Now please, find something else to talk about LOL
Cycle Cruza it's up to you to save America, buy a Harley ! We need ya brotherrrrr..... ( If you had a harley that guy wouldn't have cut you off ! Truth )
I have owned 5 Harleys. Absolutely loved them. I still have 2. A 1989 FXRS Low Rider, and a 2002 Sportster 1200C. $6200 is the most I have ever paid for a Harley. I always paid cash, and always bought from private sellers. I would never own any Harley without the EVO engine. The Twin Cams and M8s are GARBAGE. I will not own ANY bike that is not carbureted, and I will not own ANY black bike. All my Harleys had/have bright shiny paint, and lots of bright aluminum and LOTS of CHROME. I have added even more chrome to my current Harleys. Harleys have used some Japanese parts for a long time. But most of the bike was made in the U.S That is no longer the case. New ones are being made in Thailand. And they are no longer actual motorcycles. They have more computer parts than motorcycle parts. When it comes to Harleys, older bikes it's at.

C Cruzza, I have been a Hardley Hater for a loooong time! But, after 40 + years of riding, hey, if you want to spend your hard earned money on a Harley, go for it! To me, they have been the same as a woman who flashes her Coach purse. "Hey ya'll, look at this fancy purse!" Same for a Harley. Lots of bling, and mostly about an image thing.
That’s what I thought too…all bling….that’s it.
They’re fun bikes but since you’ll never get one you will never know.
The new Buell looks cooler than any Harley.
Good to see them back.
That mofo cut you off just to get in front of you!! What a jerk
Yeah he was a fool.
Cycle Cruza, you may need to look into the baggers/touring bike from Harley or Indian if you want that V-twin character. Indian if you want better quality out the box, Harley if you want a more sexy bike. Then you have Honda & BMW. They got women 5’2” riding those heavy bikes and there is technique in picking them up if they drop. The long distance trips will give you more content. God bless👊🏽🙏🏽
IMO a Harley isn't worth it. For the reason being my brother bought a Harley for his 2nd bike. He paid over 30k for his bike and then dumped another 7k in accessories and Harley merch. Then he lost it in a parking lot at a bike night. While my MT07 stood out like a sore thumb in a sea of Harleys. I lmao when he went to sit on a bike that was practically identical to his and it's owner, she blew up on him saying get the F**k off my bike 😂😂
lol 30k+ for a bike is crazy to me unless its a H2 for collection. I bought my MT-07 at a Harley dealership, it was the only Yamaha they sold there and it was their best selling bike, so much so that it was always on backorder and I have to wait a couple months. Honestly, I prefer my Yamaha Davidson. 😂 Much better value and more fun. 🏍
@@CycleCruza Exactly. If you have 30k burning a hole in your pocket or bank account then buy a MT07 and your gear and spend around 10k and still have 20k to buy whatever else you want. You could legit get the MT07, your gear, buy a decent used car for when it's absolutely pouring outside, pay for insurance and still likely spend less than buying a Harley.
@@CycleCruzahonda rebel 1100T is the way to go homeboy. That parallel Africa twin is juicy as hell.
2:36 That guy came too close. I would have cursed him out.
Thailand has an industrial zone that manufactures all kinds of parts for every motorcycle brand, including HD and my favorite, Triumph.
I sold my ktm sat an picked up new gsxr750 Tuesday. I can tell you I will never ever want another ktm after riding the suzuki. It would have to be a 1290 or a 1390 for me to look at it. They suzukis sound is just intoxicating, and how nible an rocket fast it is blows my mind.
Reliable too.
MT-07 with 270 Degree Firing order has the same firing patter as an HD I have been told. I have never checked the Math ..
I simply don't want a Motorycle with forward foot controls..
270 degree offset isn‘t the same as a Harley v-twin. The 270 crossplane emulates a 90 degree v-twin (or l-twin if you‘re pretentious like Ducati). Harleys have a really narrow angle at 45 degrees. This was originally done to allow for more hp while keeping size down, for the same reasons manufacturers nowadays use inline twins. This gives them that iconic bang-bang-pop sound.
Riding in gravel with forward foot controls is not that fun.
@@drz400sm5 Yes but with 31 degrees fork rake it's not so hard to do on a Harley .. Try it with 24 degrees and a 17" front wheel
I’ve owned four Harleys and none of them had forward controls. I still have my 1997 xlh. Like cycle cruza I also have a 2023 mt07. Both bikes will turn you into a hooligan but the sportster does so with brutal acceleration. No my sportster isn’t stock but it’s reliable and gets 46mpg on pump gas. It runs mid elevens in the quarter and low sevens in the eighth. I bought it used ten years ago for $2800 and have about $3500 in mods on it. Mt yamahopper was $ 10,500 out the door and runs mid eights in the eighth.
@@davidleonard8369 My 2015 was $7,400.00 with taxes and title in 2017. I also have a 2008 Buell Ulysess, It ran 12.77 at 107 MPH .. It wheelies too much off the line .
Tell it like it is dude! I have a 25 year old sportster. Some years back I had a bad accident & while I was getting over it I had the thing almost all the way apart. Suspension is by Showa, starter motor by Hitachi, headlight by Bosch, tail light plastic made in Canada. New rear reflector, in a genuine HD spare part bag - made in Finland. Those are just the ones I remember. That aside, maintanence is very easy. I had to replace the starter motor solenoid a couple of years back, will have to do the fork seals soon. That's all I've had to do to it in the 14 years I've owned it, apart from keeping the oil & filters up to it.
Price-wise, I'm down under in Oz, here it's still possible to get a nice evo sporty for less than AU$ 10k (6-7k freedom bucks). Wouldn't know about the big twins, I don't like 'em anyway. As for HD's newer stuff - they got nothing I want, they're stupid expensive, and I don't think HD want you to do your own work on them anymore.
Here is my thoughts about HD: heritage, icon, beautiful. Some models are actually cool. Other are comfortable. I completely understand people who buy them. Me personally I am a Guzzista guy (owning a Moto Guzzi V7), after 5 boring Hondas.
I got a 23 Road King Police(it was brand new) for $18k all in. Loving it so far. Normally I don’t like cruisers but the police seats are tall. Comfy too.
Harley Davidson: Yesterdays technology at tomorrow's prices
Depends on what model and where you are. Here in Thailand the new Nightster 975 cost just a bit more than a Rebel 1100 and cheaper than a Triumph Bobber. After a Dynojet tuned the 975 makes around 100 hp at the wheel and reach the top speed of 270 km/h on a dyno. It is lighter and faster than both a Rebel 1100 and a Bobber. So overall is is a very good buy over here.
Same as a Pan American. It is cheaper than a GS1250 over here but still as much good. A very good buy.
However old Harley guys will not accept those as a "ReAL hArLEY" though. 😅
I've got a 2021 HD sport glide. Best of both worlds it's a cruiser and a tourer. Most comfortable bike I've ever ridden. Try out one. I'd be surprised if you did love it.
If you get a Harley, you have to go all the way! Ride it to Sturgis and Daytona Bike Week! And get the Harley shirt and boots. 🤣
I‘d consider one if it was at least half the price. They literally don‘t warrant their price tag.
Just a question out of curiosity CC, let’s say you were riding at 50-70mph and a car pulled out in front of you and you couldn’t swerve out of the way and you tbone their car, do you think your airbag vest is durable and reliable enough to prevent severe spinal cord damage and from becoming a paraplegic?
I wear a Spidi Airbag vest. To answer your question, learn a high level of riding skills (advanced riding courses, parking lot training, emergency stopping, and swerving) to be your first defense in avoiding an accident. Those tools have saved my life on a number of occasions. Then, my Airbag vest is worn as a last resort for protection from a crash. I've been riding 40+ years and never went down.
It can save you, it has saved many riders. here is a testimony: th-cam.com/video/u5wHxtc0Kwo/w-d-xo.html
It don’t matter where the parts are coming from dude as long as it has Harley backing and quality
Yeah but they shouldn't brag about it being all American.
The new line up of HD's looks good but have to see if they hold up. I considered a Harley but price was factor and, I concur, the value for dollar just isnt there even when buying used. I still say the only HD CC might like is a VROD muscle as it has very good performance reviews and a standard seating position. However, if CC wants a Harleyesque cruiser riding experience there are plenty of Japanese made bikes that outperform and out price HD.
Yeah I'm tempted to get a v-rod and do a sick build with a FAT rear wheel and hydraulic suspension. I always wanted to do that.
Got 4k miles so far on a '23 Honda Rebel 1100. I LOVE IT! Great price, performance, etc. Originally was looking at a Breakout also. Glad I chose what I did.
I love my 23 MT07. Some Harleys are nice, but way too expensive.
With Harley, you're paying for the name.
I am a harley owner bu I have the vrod. I have always liked that look of a muscle cruiser. All the other bikes I liked in that style were way more when it came to cost.. I have had mine for 5 to 6 years now. I love it. With the new harleys I think u should try the Sporters S, the Pan Am, and any bike that has at least the 114 and up. if you are lookin for that TQ, the 114 and up has pretty much all of it. Yes they are heavier but at speed you won't notice... cheers.
Im pretty sure harley Davidson has never claimed their bikes are 100% made in America. Maybe the frames and motors but there's more to it. For me it was just a special feeling riding a harley. That said I have a yamaha now
Made in USA is better quality. Have pride.
Absolutely.
You r got to be kidding.
Made in USA
By obese retards
The best bikes HD ever made are the least respected. The Sportster 1200 and V-ROD are two great, affordable, reliable bikes. But Sportsters are girls bikes and real HDs aren’t V Rods.
CycleCruz...brotha, I would love to see you test ride and react to your feelings on test riding the 2024 Triumph Rocket 3R or 3R Storm Edition. I would love to see what you think about it...
Cycle Cruza always says he likes Torque . I was going to suggest he ride a Rocket 3
@@mikeskidmore6754 Mike, the new Rocket 3R Storm can hit 280km/h or 173 mph and that is without a tune! Get a Brentune on that thing and it could hit 180mph; plenty of speed..haha...but it's smooth and comfortable and very nimble. Would be easy to lane split if living in california...Also, a person can have the pegs moved up .59 inches so that there's no scraping the pegs if canyon carving
Yes they are. The Softail line anyway. You need to get one for the channel bro, at least once
Yes, you are correct, sir. Nice job.
I don’t think they’re meant for us. They’re for fashion riders and geezers, mostly.
Every time I see a sales ad for Harley dealership…… they always say “ Call for Quote “ for price!! That just turns me off…if you can’t post the price of the bikes, that just tells me you’re asking too much $$. I’ll stick with Japanese manufacturers!!
Agree…MT07…best all rounder street bike for the city. Put a nice Akaorovic pipe on it…then it sounds like a Ducati. Neither HD or Ducati can match it. Australian price new $14 000 - bang on value.
I have always wanted a HD, I can afford one…but I think they are way overpriced
I walked away from H.D years ago. Overpriced and unreliable. They knock your nuts in with parts and maintenance. Definitely not for blue collar dudes anymore. I love my V Strom 800 DE
TRIUMP 765 STREET TRIPLE. GET THAT.
You're paying for the name and to be part of the HD lifestyle 🧐🤣🤣
😮 $700 month on groceries oh my. I tend to spend 45-70 a week at store. Not including misc meals may get way home from or ordered into work. I get angry every time I walk by the hard salami. Have not bought any in years like $7 now. And $5 for bag of chips. Groceries are nonsense. For whatever reason I saved a receipt for 20 oz bottle of pop back in day. $.79 back than. 1996 I think was. I'm getting old 😂
Get a BUSA 25th anniversary edition!!!!!!
I love my roadliner!
I would never buy a new harley but you can find some good values if your buying used. Harleys made from 2008-2017 with the twin cam fuel injection engines are bulletproof and can be found for pretty cheap on fb marketplace. A harley would definitely be good content for the channel
What’s up my man! Good morning!
Hey! Good afternoon!
Only Harley I’d ever get is the VRod, aside from that, nah.
No they are not, but Indians are! ✌🏻
Also, Buell motorcycles are American 🇺🇸
I love Harleys the bike, and own one myself, but hate the corporate side, after they went woke I will never buy another or any part from a dealership. Harley Davidson is dead to me. Love my Harley, but when she's gone that it.
Pan America Special Amazing bike ! Would love to have at least 3-5 different bikes ,but if 1 bike is a swiss army knife it's this bike ! " American Made " term outdated
Get a Sportster or get the V-rod finally you’ve been wanting it
We need a video about Indian now lol
The FTR looks good, you should test drive one if you haven't already
America's dependence on China is sickening.
Come on bro, it would be same as with the KTM, you could use it for 6months/1year and then sell it. Plus like you said, they hold their value teally well. If you don't like the traditional models, what about the Pan America or the Sporster S?
Their overpriced, parts are expensive, Americans are alway paying to much just because their made in the USA.
Harley’s new ones are made in Asia now. Look it up
I dont normally comment on youtube but i had to for this i had a heritage softtail beautiful bike loved the sound and look but could not get over the "harley tax" its ridiculous how much it is to maintain let alone even buy one im looking into getting a vulcan 900
ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Overpriced garbage.
Definitely way overpriced. However, I will say they are good for allowing test rides unlike most other brands around here.
I’ll choose Indian over Harley
Indian is probably more reliable, and they have some amazing bikes
Yeah Indian makes some cool bikes. I love the look of the Indian bobber.
Yo Cycle Cruza the New Triumph 765 Triple is a Dam torque Monster. And Here is the dam Kicker. You ready it comes Black and that Florescent Yellow that you were all the time. This Bike was made for You Cycle Cruza. Bruh just check it out on Chase on 2 wheels. He put a new exhaust and that brought out the beast. 😂
Yeah the Street triple is a great bike. I'm looking at some Triumphs, trying to hook up some test rides.
I feel like you've made this video 15 times in the past 10 years lol
My dad loves his HD. Says It's easy to work on. My question is, if you're gonna spend over 36K for a bike, should you have to work on it? I felt my soul leave my body when I asked him lol.
Besides, their insurance rates are insane. Can't endorse their Woke policies either.
If you want cruiser style, just get an Indian.
Yeah it seems like the Indian bikes are a better value. A modded Harley looks sick af tho.
They went out of business here,poor quality problems
I do like the look of some of their models. But.. I appreciate good handling and good brakes. And I really like light weight. Plus. I just don't see a good value. But.. if you don't mind spending the money? Get the Harley 😅😅😅
Which one do you think looks good?
They have some kickass bikes but take a look at Triumphs under 5 thousand for the 400 and they are slick 👻
I think I need to try a Triumph. I've been trying to get some test rides.
Cycle Cruza gets a Harley Davidson then makes 1000 videos on how he hates harleys
🤣 I already have and I haven't even owned one yet. lol I should get one, maybe I'll change my tune or not.
How you gonna find a Harley that weighs under your 300 pound threshold?
I had a Harley. 2016 iron 883 blacked out and a lot of nice parts. Thing ripped and looked bad ass but god was that a boring bike. Really only good for back country road cruising imo
Nope. Neither is bikes under 500 ccs. Trust me youll end up selling it in couple months
Harley Davidson, the greatest motorcycles in the world, PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😎🇨🇦😎
Only motorcycles I buy are Indians and Hondas.
True Harley Davidson parts are mostly made in China by QJ motors which bought the Benelli and the Keeway company... certainly the engine parts..they even produce some off shoot Harley Davidson like bikes ..just check out QJ motors mate 👍😂
SO what is the deal with Harley Davidson COMPANY . I saw a video of a HARD CORE PATRIOTIC HD owner destroying his HD bikes .Literally his used them as TARGETS in his shooting Range. Yeah Japanese Bikes ALL THE WAY . Yamaha Honda Susuki THE BEST
I left Harley still own low rider s. But I have mt09 sp. better bike. 😂
Why not? These days Harleys even come with your very own pride flag 😂
U should buy a Harley. I don't think you are very popular in the sport bike community like you once were. Maybe it would give you a new crowd to appeal to.
Nah dude don’t get a Harley.
Yes is amazing to have a motorcycle.
Cycle cruiser 😂 you need a REAL! Bike a REAL MAN'S bike 😂. That's funny
Not with this latest round of recalls… or really at all really.
HDs are overrated and overpriced.
I wouldn't own a harley anyway, since they went woke and recently kicked the american biker to the curb. Theres plenty of other cruiser bike company's.
I'll never own one ,
Is all about the gears man.
Yes it is. Just don’t go and buy the most expensive model. Yes it’s nicer than a Yamaha 😂
Which Harley do you like?
Yes of course
Can I be the (supposed) first to say Nah. You don't need a Harley bro. Stay on the whatevers. That's fine. Now please, find something else to talk about LOL
Cycle Cruza it's up to you to save America, buy a Harley ! We need ya brotherrrrr..... ( If you had a harley that guy wouldn't have cut you off ! Truth )
Hi everyone.
Nope
I have owned 5 Harleys. Absolutely loved them. I still have 2. A 1989 FXRS Low Rider, and a 2002 Sportster 1200C. $6200 is the most I have ever paid for a Harley. I always paid cash, and always bought from private sellers. I would never own any Harley without the EVO engine. The Twin Cams and M8s are GARBAGE. I will not own ANY bike that is not carbureted, and I will not own ANY black bike. All my Harleys had/have bright shiny paint, and lots of bright aluminum and LOTS of CHROME. I have added even more chrome to my current Harleys.
Harleys have used some Japanese parts for a long time. But most of the bike was made in the U.S That is no longer the case. New ones are being made in Thailand. And they are no longer actual motorcycles. They have more computer parts than motorcycle parts. When it comes to Harleys, older bikes it's at.
Nope. Overpriced crap.
Nope! 😂😂😂
Indian makes the better "Harley's"
