i bought my 1st busa on may 1st-first sport bike ever.
well- i came from a background of Harleys from clubs
to when they refused service at nice restaurants "back
in the day". the Harley scene was way different back
then- a "brotherhood" if you will. well heres the thing:
i currently own a 02 Electraglide and put a 97 Ultra
sidecar on it last year. i have 42000 miles on it and my
wife and i did an 1800 mile trip last year. i loved my
Harley and had no problems with the twin-cam unlike
the shovelheads of old. thing is-since i bought the busa
it's not fun like b4. everyone likes the sidecar rig and it puts a lot of smiles on peoples faces and i can cruise at
40 MPH and have a good time with my wife and son with
me. the BUSA has ruined me as when i ride my Harley now i feel like i'm riding an ol' tractor and the BUSA a Lambourghini! i have been thinking of selling the Harley
and buying another bike as i can get almost what i paid
for it with sidecar and all. something like a triumph speed triple or FZ1. now that i have been exsposed to
the performance of these bikes-i'm hooked! i could sell the harley and buy a hot naked bike and put money in the bank to boot. BUT- to replace a Harley rig like i have it would cost about $30000. times change-i'm 60 years
old,shaved head,tattoos from wrist to sholders,and back. my Harley buddies think i have lost my mind when they see me on my new BUSA,full face helmet,and joe rocket jacket but what they don't see is the smile from ear to ear when i'm riding the BUSA. or- i could sell the Harley and buy the new 08 in black & orange Harley colors just for spite! have 2 busas= GEN I & GEN II. what do you think? should i sell the Harley?
