When you show me one of those on a police rodeo course, I’ll give it props.

I’ve been riding since the 70’s. As you can see in my signature just between my two current bikes that I bought new I have close to 300k experience. Add in the other 5 bikes I’ve owned over the years and I’m close to 500k. Your turn big boy. You don’t have anything in your signature. I’d say...

However HD has dominated dirt track racing for many years https://www.topspeed.com/motorcycles/motorcycle-news/harley-davidson-xr750-the-bike-that-couldn-t-stop-winning/

Again what do you call performance? How many Japanese motorcycles do you see competing in a police rodeo? None, zip, nada. That’s all about acceleration, braking, lean angle, and tight turning ability. No sport bike can do that. And like I said that has so much more to do with everyday riding...

Police duty certainly tests a motorcycle under extreme conditions. Running a police rodeo course is definitely a measure of performance that the Gold Wing can’t compete in. If you have evidence otherwise, show us. If you think a rodeo is not a measure of maneuverability , braking, acceleration...

You didn’t answer to any of the points I addressed pertaining to your comments. You mentioned performance, yet you can’t explain why there are no Gold Wings in police service or competing in police rodeo competitions? You mentioned HD getting more technically advanced because they had to, yet...

I disagree. I’ve test ridden Gold Wings and my HD is way more comfortable for me. When my knees are jammed up against a fairing, that’s not comfortable. Not to mention the heat flowing off those radiators during a hot summer day. It’s no wonder I see more Gold Wings in spring and fall on the...

One final note. This thread is about high priced impractical motorcycles. Many manufacturers are guilty of this. The childish comments about pirate outfits and such are out of place. Grow up and pick your fights in person instead of hiding behind the internet

First of all I did not post anything about a 60k HD. That was the OP. Second, you’re going to tell me that the Rune, which Honda spent 225 MILLION dollars designing in 2003, and LOST over $100,000 per bike in 2003, would still be sold for 25k, 20 years later? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Oh yes you’ve changed the...

I didn’t compare the Rune to them all so I have no idea what your point is. The RUNE, in the context of THIS THREAD, is and was a high priced impractical motorcycle

Typical argumentative deflection of the point at hand. You can’t defend the Honda Rune in any way so you change your argument. The whole point of my post was in response to this thread about high priced impractical motorcycles. And the Honda Rune is definitely exactly that. Imagine the sap who...

Another testament to how much money Honda lost making these bikes https://www.hagerty.com/media/motorcycles/the-motorcycle-that-honda-lost-millions-building/

😂

Hard to find? Did you watch the video? Honda didn’t make spare parts. Imagine being the sap who bought one of these :ROFLMAO:

:ROFLMAO: Replacement headlight $2672 Replacement radiator $1572 Replacement master cylinder $1350 Replacement engine guard $1010 EACH……. Looks to me like Honda even surpasses Harley in parts prices:ROFLMAO:

Lavazza Super Crema poured on top of half and half whisked to a froth with one of those cheap Amazon stick frothers !!

First generation anything = stay away

This morning's coffee brewed in my new Moccamaster was Lavazza Super Crema 28 grams with 16 ounces water. Mixed in 2 tb of half and half and 3 tb of coconut milk. Wow that's good :)

So I mentioned I was going to look into another method. Behold. First cup yummy. It’s only going to get better when I dial it in. This fits me to a T. Well made and simple.

Yes I will be experimenting with time this weekend before I jump to another method.
