magazine test is not a competition.

Don't kid yourself.

Enjoyed some of the comments on that page.

yeah i know.but to have them side by side gives the impression they compete for the same market share/purpose.

Wow I can`t believe they consider the HD a Streetfighter.

"America takes on Italy
In The
Air cooled V-Twin
Streetfighter Shoot out"


Its a sport cruiser at best. No way would I ever consider that over weight bike a streetfighter. EVER !

HD Just let go the best Streetfighter visionary that ever worked for them.
Or any where else for that matter.
JACK ASSES !


I would much rather have the Duc any day. And anyone looking for a bike in that catagory would probably make the same choice.

Lets see a nimble great handling hooligan streetfighter with an attitude. Or an overweight old fashon sport cruiser. Sure its got updates but its no streetfighter.

How are they going to get younger riders in the door again ? I`m sure someone at the the top of HD who has never ridden a bike will figure that out.
JACK ASSES !

That Adrenalin-Moto XR1200 looks like a nice bike, But look at the work it took $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Just to get it set up for any type of aggressive riding.

Throw that much at the Duc and see what you get in comparison.

I started riding on an XR1200, and have nothing good to say about it. It turned rather easy, but I hated it. Especially when HD dropped Buell, So I traded it in on an XB12scg. F*ck Harley, if they really think they can compete in racing then someone needs to slap them and tell 'em to pop their heads out of their arses and realize they dont cater to young kids who want to go fast and race. Buell did.
