I was just down in Arizona, and everyone has a Harley. When I say everyone, I mean friggin everyone. And I was in the low-rent section of Arizona, so its not like people there make a lot of money. I know Harley would let a marsupial finance one of their bikes, so its not like you have to make a lot of money to buy one, but I was truly surprised that everyone had one. What I did notice, however, was that none of these guys had loud pipes (like me), and none of these guys wore the mandatory Harley costume (like mine). Even though I have these things and I couldn't believe these other riders didn't spend the time or money to make their bikes as loud as possible (what good is it having one if you can't advertise it?), I still couldn't get over how common it is to own a Harley. I now feel somewhat duped that I bought into the "lifestyle" and that my "investment" is pretty ordinary. Perhaps I should have bought quality over lifestyle. What do you think?
