I ride my Street Bob to work everyday. Total riding time about 1hrs 30 min everyday.

 

All that crap from work goes away the moment I start the engine :)

No, a Harley is not just a transport bike. It takes a real man to ride it and lane split through heavy traffic.

cos its too wide or difficult to control at low speeds?

What I'm gonna say may be offensive and hurt some bikers feelings...

So don't be a flower and suck it in...

 

Those days riding harley is awesome...

You can ride and ride and not scrutinize by the white pigs...

The louder the pipes the harlier your bike is...

Putting on vest and ride is like a brotherhood...

There's ride around this island and rides up north...

Mostly rides up north to Malaysia thailand and as far as the road brings...

Those who rides up far will know about Nicky hotel in phuket...

 

These days it's about I have money...

I buy harley....

I wear vest...

I patch founder on my vest coz I'm cool...

I ride to forum for coffee....

I park the bike in front of coffee shop...

I put on shades....

I now look cool...

I don't wear half cap helmet coz it's illegal...

I have a chain attached to my wallet...

I wear LTA approve helmet coz I've got no balls to answer to the authorities...

I send bike service/add accesories to harley singapore coz I need recognition from them...

I don't ride across the causeway coz dangerous...

My insurance don't cover up north highways...

I spent $3K plus for J&H pipes...

I make bike bling bling...

I ride daily to work so my neighbours/colleague can see me ride harley...

 

So to answer your question on riding a harley on daily purpose then the answer yes of coz you can...

It's not a matter how wide the bike is or how heavy the bike is....

It's about how you want to be recognize riding a harley...

Oh come on you are not a small boy who pass the license yesterday...

Be practical and truthful to yourself on why you want to ride a Harley...

Is it the lifestyle or is it about recognition or is it is just whatever the reasons are...

You want practicality then you see the thousands of bikes crossing the causeway...

That bike is practical to ride to go work...

Easy to ride...

Can park anywhere...

No need afraid people steal your bike...

Easy maintenance...

Can even carry the bike up the curb if need too...

 

Hope this answers anyone queries and let's all be truthful...

Cheers and have a good day....

A quick question for the seasoned Harley riders here, please.

 

How much would an April 2011 Nightster be worth on the resale market? Mileage is about 11,000km.

My colleague ride his 48 Iron to work. I used to ride my '06 Fat Boy to work too.

 

My enjoyment of owning a Harley is being looked at and also the raw engine power when I accelerate on the highway.

Hey folks! Will finally be taking my Class 2 this June and thus end a 4 year journey to become a Harley owner! The reason I would like to ride a Harley is because of the freedom it represents, and as a form of rebellion against accepted norms, the choice of an alternate lifestyle. I would like to tour, in groups or solo it doesn't really matter, up north and perhaps beyond. It was always my opinion that Harleys were made to do this, i.e. cruise long distances, but as I learnt more about them, I realised that this isn't always the case!

 

There are such a bewildering number of models to chose from, that I simply cannot decide which to best suit my needs. I've always liked bobber-styled bikes, like the '48, so that narrows it down a little. But then again, are Sportsters the right bike for my touring needs? Heard they vibrate like crazy and aren't comfy enough for long-haul trips. And then there is the matter of that tiny 7.9L tank...

 

The best Harleys for touring I've learnt, are the gigantic Road Kings, Street Glides, Ultra Glides etc... Now, these surely aren't the right bikes for a Class 2 newbie are they?! Besides, they aren't just massive vehicles, they come with an equally massive price tag!

 

Is there something in-between that you guys can recommend? Or will a Sportster / Nightster be alright? Also, I've heard that Harleys need to be ridden daily, and that if they're not, part after part will fail leading to a maintenance nightmare. I have no intention of riding the Harley daily, I've got other bikes for that. So I was very skeptical upon hearing this, and thus am asking in an open forum full of Harley owners...how true (or false) is this?

 

Lots to learn from you guys so appreciate any feedback you may have to give. Many thanks in advance!

All Harleys vibrate , some more than others, but when cruising the vibration is not that bad.

Sportsters are fine for touring except the low range mileage due to small tank as you already know

48s are meant for city riding, not touring.

i recommend the Dyna range which is good for both city and tour.

otherwise, japanese sport tourers are really the best machines for long distance touring imo.

i ride my HD once a week. Heck, i ride all my bikes once a week. So dont worry.

 

Riding, its all about the attitude. Never the bike

Go test ride...

What you test is what you gonna like...

Listen to people say this say that....

All here many keyboard warriors...

I see and here many who talk bullshit and some don't know anything about owning a Harley...

Got money buy...

Then show...

Then act like hard core harley rider....

Ohhh crap....

Wear harley clothing top to toe...

Then put vest and patch this and that...

Harley riders this days all pretend only...

True harley riders will not talk about the bikes...

Shut the trap and just ride...

Distances are just numbers in the odometer...

True reason for having a Harley is to ride distance...

Cruise up north as far as possible...

Not ride ECP and then to Starbucks...

Like I say people here keyboard warriors...

I type what I observe and so not happy can go f... yourself...

We all know what we ride we want...

Ask this and that...

Makes you seem you don't really know what ride you want...

Different people have different needs to what bike they use and for what purpose...

No one here newbies...

Everybody rides for at least a minimum 2yrs already...

There's this thing called Google....

Google for the specs..

Goggle for the reviews...

Ask around here all give different answers and preferences...

Like for example if I see a sportster on the road,

I'll say a bloody waste of time on that bike...

But if it's carburetor then that's a different story...

And if you want to get a dyna....

Custom the bike...

But then again in singapore if it's not the same as original then it's after market and illegal...

So what's the point....

Riding a Harley is a kind of lifestyle that suits an individual...

You have to be original to your personal design and custom to your liking...

And then you'll stand out...

Custom meaning made to measure not buy accessories and fix to the bike like many on the roads..

What crap...

Well well a lot of the harley boys will not be happy with what I've said but who gives a **** really...

Look in the mirror and judge our own selves...

Cheers...

Thanks for info mate! Ok, guess I can live with the vibrations part. Yes, the group I ride with are of the same opinion that jap tourers make the best touring machines, but they're not Harleys!

 

Dyna huh? Thanks, but I find them a little too bland for my liking. Maybe a softtail or street bob I dunno! Anyways, I won't be in the market for a bike until late this year, so still have time to research.

 

Just once a week and no problems low usage? Guess the myth is busted then! Haha!

 

Thanks again for the info. Ride safe!

WoW dude! Thanks for being so honest!

Hahahahaa! This is great! They ought to make this a LAW!

 

It is true that I don't know yet what I want to ride. How could I? I don't even have my Class 2! Google has served the world well, me included! But sometimes, there's nothing like hearing things from actual Harley owners here in Singapore. Just part of my research. But will definitely take your advice to test ride my shortlisted bikes before making any decision...once I get my big bike license.

 

Would definitely love to custom the bike, but it has to be within the boundaries of the law. Don't wanna have to dodge LTA every time I ride out! Yeah, who cares about what others think, say what you wanna say dude! Always.

 

No Remorse...No Repent...
