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.
