Hello my Biker Chums!
What is your view on Marmite?
Do you like it of hate it....
..a bit like Harley Davidson Motorcycles....
...!
I remember, a few years ago, that I used to hate "Harley Davidson" with a vengeance, reminding me of everything bad about the USA and some of its Folks who live there...gangs, drugs, and violence...(and certain Politicians!)!
My bikes have always been both British and Japanese Motorcycles., but after speeding around on super-sports Bikes in Britain for most of my time, I fancied something a bit different for a change....
...maybe a "Cruiser"....
...!
I'm a bit too old, skinny, and weak now, for big trans-country Cruisers (Harley Road Glides, etc) so I opted for either a Yamaha 250 Dragstar vee-twin Cruiser, or a Honda 250 vertical twin Cruiser!
Light-weight and easy to manage for me.
The 250 Dragstar was/is a bit thin on the ground over here, so I opted for the more available 250 Honda Rebel, which is very popular in the USA!
This interesting article came through my E-Mail today, with reference to the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Company, and some of its recent problems...>>>

If I had the money (and the physical strength) I would quite like a Harley Davidson vee-twin for the history, heritage, the comradeship, the sound, and the looks!
Probably a Harley 833 or 48/72 to start off with, even though there are lots of Far East alternatives to choose from.!
But it seems that they are falling out of favour in the USA!...
....!
So...
Like Marmite, would you love a Harley or hate a Harley!
(I love Marmite!)....
...!
What do you reckon Chums?
Would you go for a Harley Cruiser, or a "Rice-Burner" Cruiser?...
....!
...or neither!
