Bruce,

I used to ride Harley's like a lot of people. They are not for everyone. 
It's not pretending to be a race bike. It's a cruiser. (as in slow and 
comfortable).

Once I got y first Ducati I couldn't sell my Road King fast enough.

I enjoy motorcycles in general. I've been riding since I was 10 (35 
years). I've owned Harleys, Hondas Kawasakis, a Ural with a sidecar, and 
4 different Ducatis. A big part of my enjoyment is the culture and the 
people I ride with.

I found that a lot of my fellow Harley riders were "brand snobs". I 
never understood this thinking.

I thought that I would not have to deal with this type of thinking among 
the Ducati crowd.

I guess I was wrong.
