    that bikes in my neck of the woods, but i dont trust harley dealers one bit when it comes to any bike that isnt a harley, they take shortcuts on repairs and do anything just to get the non-harley gone. IMO harleys suck anyway, who wants to spend 18k on a bike when you can get a more comfortable and quicker more reliable bike for under 10k new??

    LoL, I saw that on ebay tonight.

    Was thinking to myself
    "How ironic that a dealer doesn't know what they have"

    If a dealer doesn't know who would?

    XJ BIKES, thats who would know, lol

    Nope thats truth in advertising, "buy a harley own the best ride a mile walk the rest" sounds like some adventures(or ordeals) to me LOL!! I have a friend with a nice harley the thing has had starting troubles for 5 years, we have replaced, starters, relays, wiring, solonoid contacts on the starter(they were toast after 2 years) batteries. It still out of the blue won't start sometimes. I asked him the other day do you know what would solve that? He said Yeah a Yamaha!! LOL!!! I was going to tell him the push button starter kit that you manually push a button on the end of the starter and engage it but his answer was better.

    Yamaha absolutely made an 850. I had one in 1980. It was an 850 midnight special. Not a maxim of course I believe it was an XS model. Had 3 cylinders. Still my all time favorite bike.

    true! i saw an 850 special in the grocery store parking lot the other day. i spotted the guy riding around for months, never knew it was an 850 though! looked super clean, 6k miles on the tach! just shows you...never know what strange creation will come across your path so long as you're looking!
