This is where it started yesterday. 'Looking at other bikes too - CBF600'

The first comment (lets not call it attack) was made yesterday in another thread).

Not really a step up from the sportster.

Lozzo says: I've ridden plenty of 125s that have been a step up from an 883 Sportster, and yes, I've ridden a couple of Sportsters too. (end quote)

to which I asked to keep it friendly and said i was not going to get into it.

lets draw a line under it and get back to the original thread purpose :-)

Here's your chance.

Unprovoked slagging off in the name of freedom of speech. I can tell you it isn't nice. What else can I expect from you, that's what I'm worried about, a future of being constantly reminded of my admission that i ride a harley. Every little thing i say will now be an opportunity for you to get in there. Hm, doesn't look good does it.

Shock horror....Nick15 defending a womans honour. ;) :p

IMHO this forum is all about banter/opinions/info and would be a worse place if it was any different. I don't agree with everything people post, but i certainly won't lose any sleep over it.

At the end of the day wow, its up to you whether you decide to stick around. However Nick's right...this is one of the best bike forums on the net. Its why i'm still here despite now owning a R6, which Lozzo also dislikes. :mrgreen:

Re: there is none in the showroom
 

have you had a ride on an sv yet wow? if not why not :-) they are a great bike and sound awesome with a nice can, have a word with speedyclaire and ask her what she thinks of her sv ;-)

Re: there is none in the showroom
 

I dunno, I just don't see why every mention of a harley has to lead to the same predictable response. But Lozzo is one of the good ones, honest! This really is a good forum, I'd really say don't let a bad start put you off, and don't assume the worst of people. I understand why you'd take it the way you did but no offence was meant I'm sure.

I had a Virago 125- so Harleys are like race bikes to me :)

:rolleyes:!!

Just kidding not getting started on that again :D

No, feel free, it was RUBBISH :smt101. But still kind of cool. 140 kilos wet and the centre of gravity was about 8 inches off the ground, lots of fun even on leather tyres.

Re: there is none in the showroom
 

I do apologise if you feel insulted, but I most certainly will not apologise for having or voicing an opinion.

You have my word I will never respond to any of your future posts with any mention of Harleys, even in a positive manner.

However, I do reserve the right to constantly call into question Northwind's sexuality, now he's admitted to once owning a Virago 125.

Re: there is none in the showroom
 

Well im not afraid i like harleys!! say what you like when Vrods come down abit more in price il be havin me one :cool:
