I'm not sure why the word "harley" evokes so many strong emotions and assumptions - especially from folks who have never owned one.

I am not asking for opinions on which is a better machine,...

I'll agree that colleges teach kids to be followers, not leaders. I agree that technology is the downfall of man - we have no social skills and are lazy because of it. At the same time, I agree that...
