Davidson Electra Glide
Should I buy a Harley Davidson or a Japanese cruiser?
I recently rented an Electra Glide for a long weekend in the Florida Keys and loved the bike. I want to buy a similar style to the Softail Classic but find hard to justify the cost.
I personally think the Harleys are better than a Japanese cruiser. You discovered that for yourself in the Florida Keys. I'd say get what you know you really want. If you allow cost to be the determining factor, you're going to end up with something you really aren't going to be happy with and will probably end up selling it and getting the Harley. Avoid going through all that and just get the Harley. They do not require constant maintenance as some would want you to believe. Also, they hold their resale value much better than a Japanese bike. So when the day ever comes you want to get a newer Harley you'll be able to get a decent amount for trading up. When I got my first Harley I could not justify the expense of a new one. I searched and searched for a used one. It was worth the wait. I found a used one (5 years old) with very low mileage (3,800 miles) in excellent condition and got it far cheaper than a new one, yet it is basically like new. If you can't justify the cost of a new one, perhaps you should consider a newer used one. If you really loved the Harley you rode, you'll find a way. Never settle for second best.

Electra glide in blue $99 Vissa har anklagat den för att vara fascistisk, andra har hyllat den för sin kompromisslöshet; en sak är dock säker - Electra Glide in Blue lämnar knappast någon oberörd! Med skarp dialog, fantastiskt foto och en djuprotad känsla för det absurda har filmen kallats för en omvänd Easy Rider. Huvudet kortare än sina kollegor men dubbelt så kaxig glider mc-snuten Wintergreen fram på sin båge för att sätta dit fartsyndare och annat pack. Hans dröm är att avancera till mordroteln och när han snubblar över ett lik får han chansen. Helt oförberedd slängs han samtidigt in i en värld av korruption och lögner där den största faran kanske inte längre är frisinnade hippies, utan hans egna kollegor... |

Electra Glide in Blue $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Electra Glide in Blue is a 1973 film starring Robert Blake as a motorcycle cop in Arizona and Billy Green Bush as his partner. The movie was filmed in Monument Valley and around Fountain Hills Arizona on the Shea and Bell Line Highway. It was produced and directed by James William Guercio (who is best known as the producer of Chicagos first eleven albums). The film was entered into the 1973 Cannes Film Festival, but was loathed by critics. However, it garnered a great deal of critical acclaim upon its nationwide release. Overall, it saw only limited commercial success. Several members of Chicago appear in minor roles, including Peter Cetera, Terry Kath, Lee Loughnane and Walter Parazaider, as well as David Hawk Wolinski from the Guercioproduced band Madura. Chicago also appears on the movie soundtrack.

Harley-Davidson and Philosophy $17.95 It’s no wonder descriptions of riding often resemble the words of Asian mystics and Jedi knights: The ride causes your senses to open completely. You experience only the present, the now. Readers who prefer revving a Harley to meditating in a Zen garden know that biking is just as contemplative as chanting in the lotus position. Here, philosopher-bikers explore this seeming dichotomy, expounding on intriguing questions such as: Why are the motorcycles the real stars of Easy Rider? What would Marx and Foucault say about Harley riders’ tight leather garb? What’s it like to live a dual life as a philosophy professor who wrenches his own 1965 Electra Glide? Would Jesus hang out in a biker bar or a coffeehouse? And more importantly, would He ride a Harley or a Honda? These witty, provocative essays give readers and riders a new appreciation of what it means to become one with the road. |
