Too many wannabees out there. "I'll buy a Harley and be cool!"
Can't buy your way into the lifestyle. Gotta ride your way into it.
I bought an '07 FLSTC (my 7th bike) w/ 3800 miles on it on Memorial Day 2008, and traded it in for a brand-new '08 FLHTC in December... and the FLSTC read 11,700 on the odo.
And that's just 'cuz it rained most of July and August up here. And 'cuz my schedule changed and I couldn't get the time off to take the multi-state ride I wanted to do. Otherwise, there'd be many (!!!) more miles on it.
Like they say, get on it and ride the [deleted] out of it. (yes, I pre-censored my own post... please don't tell me THAT'S disallowed TOO!)
