Wise decision!

Hi all, new to site and area and got myself an 883sportster custom. My ex told me not to get a Harley - decided to get rid of the ex instead. So far the bike has given me a lot less grief and a lot more pleasure!;) Hope to get out and about this summer and face my brave new world

Re: Wise decision!

1st time for me in here and I wont make a habit of it,
following the theme I thought these words to be appropiate......

20 reasons why a Harley is better than a woman.

1) Harleys don't get pregnant.
2) You can ride a Harley any day of the month.
3) Harleys don't have mothers-in-law.
4) Harleys do not whine, unless something is seriously wrong.
5) Your Harley ALWAYS comes first; and furthermore it doesn't give a shit if you don't.
6) You will be quite happy to let your best mate ride your Harley, and what's more you can watch him do it.
7) Harleys do not give a shit about how many other better-looking Harleys you've ridden.
8) Harleys do not mind if you look at other Harleys.
9) Even in glossy magazines.
10) Your Harley does not beget little Harleys if you forget to fit a gasket.
11) You can ride a Harley the first time you meet it, without having to wine it, dine it, or meet its mother.
12) Harleys do not tell other Harleys what a lousy rider you are.
13)Your parents will not have a problem with your black Harley.
14) And even better, they won't keep in touch with it after you sell it.
15) You can ride your Harley all day, and you'll get sore before it does.
16) And if you don't ride it for a few weeks, it won't shag the milkman.
17)You will still love your Harley when it's old, ugly and needs a rebore.
18) If you take your Harley to the supermarket, it will not spend any extra money; and better still, it will carry your shopping home for you and stay within its credit card limit.
19) You can leave your Harley at home when you go out on the piss.
20) And best of all, you can trade it in for a younger model without paying for a solicitor!

Reading your intro I see nothing that indicates if you are male or female or in fact which type your "ex" was...one should not make assumptions about these things...so for the benefit of yourself and/or any others reading this...(and to let my husband know that two can play at this game) ;) ...here it goes...enjoy!
