Sion don't forget, when your bro goes to sell that bike he will get a lot of his money back, of course not all of it. But he will still make out good.
I think a lot of the bad mouthing from people on Harley's is just from pissed off uneducated (on motorcycles) people who just want to bitch. There are barely any problems with the EVO harley motor and no problems have yet to be established with the new twin cam motor.
Harley has really stepped it up, they make good quality motorcycles and when you buy one you get the "welcome to the family" video that tells you exactly what you are getting. Harley riders are good to each other, it's a family and it is a bond, believe it or not. We have had harley's in our family forever, and I can't even count the times another "Harley brother" has reached out, it's amazing.
I personally am not a fan of the jap cruisers, they just seem like a copy/rip off to me. They don't have the style and herritage that harley does, and I don't think they look near as good.
Lastly, when you compare a VTX to a V-rod, that's apple's to oranges. Just look at the two,
