Got a Harley so I could save some gas.

In My Opinion
I wanted the bigger one but this is all I could afford.

cut out some cardboard strips and put them on the spokes with clothes pins. It'll sound just like a Harley!

Thanks, that will sound much better than me making the noise with my lips.

should I also get a quart of oil and spill some under it when I park it places? I could say its an old pan head.

:nono: It would sound like a Hondarley. That's one of those wanna be's that folks try to dress up like a Harley but they just can't cover up that distinct sound of burning rice coming out of the exhaust pipes...

Dont forget the half helmet with the "Eff the WORLD, Real Bikers blahblahblah" stickers:coffee:

What do Harleys get for mpg anyway?

2010 Road King gets about 45 (probably less after stage 1 install), my car gets 32. Not that much of a trade off but as gas keeps going up I will be riding the bike more to save what I can

Not bad at all, my 650 gets about 45-50, depending on throttle usage:) Cars in the 15 range, so I make much more when I take the bike:)

I figure mine will get pretty good.
Soon as I get down to the DMV to get it tagged Im figuring I should be getting at least 1 beer per 20 miles

I used to have a Harley with a 5hp 50cc motor, 3-speed on the handlebar, top speed of about 45. I took that thing everywhere. Light enough to pick up by yourself and throw it in the trunk of the car.

I road the '47 U yesterday. It started to melt the outer shield off the thottle cable with its awesomeness.
