My top pick would be the Trimpuh speed tripple.  I have yet to throw my leg over one for a ride but I have a feeling the bike will be too small for me.   :(



My step dad has a new Trimpuh Rocket III. Those are REALLY cool bikes!

I just like things that are different.  But I'm worried how I would look on one since I'm 6'8"

:(

Thats what I'm worried about.  I fit fine on some bikes but it just depends.  I'll have to check it out.  I had a 996 and I fit perfect and I didn't look too big on it.

you can see pics of the same bike there. except my dad has the true dual exhaust, intake and programmer.

most harleys are 98 (i believe) ci. and the screamin eagle is 103 :clap:


it hauls ass :clap: :clap:

harley's do not haul ass........period. Slow, loud, overpriced rattleboxes. Having the name harley on the side of a bike does not make it good... I am tired of that generalization. 1600 v twin lucky to make 100 hp modded out, my 1000cc stock is knockin out 130hp, the cbr 1000, 160 hp. Plus they weigh nearly double. That $hit is old. I hear it everyday. Morons  at work think they have a faster bike than me. :lol: harley rider quote: " I can do 130 mph on the highway" To that I respond "oh really, me too, then I shift into 5th gear and still have 6th gear to go. They need to admit that they buy the bike for the name on the side, not because it is fast. Plus, you do not get what you pay for. I test rode a night train when I was first shopping for bikes a few years back. Brand new I ooffered the salesman 5 grand. He got offended.  :lol: Sticker was over 13k. I was like WTF! do I get two of them?  Seriously, ran like $hit and was uncomfortable. Looked like some kids built it in shop class. Sorry Kyle rant over.  ;) I have started an argument that cannot be resolved. "harley vs. the world." :rofl:

i never said it was faster than any streetbike, or it was amazing, i just said it was fast for an old man harley that the wife or kid can comfortably ride with :clap:

i hated my dads old harly... he paid like 20 some grand for it i think. it was a 100th anniversery v-rod. he put rhinehart exhaust on it. lets just say that was the loudest most obnoxious thing ever!... i will NEVER own a harly. ill ride an on off road bike first, even if i got the harly free....

Peels, my friend has a Harley that would beg to differ.

+1 on the speed triple=bad ass pic socal.

everybody that owns a harley begs to differ. :rofl: I don't mean a built harley, if thats what he has. My problem again, is with those that say they buy them because they are a superior bike, in speed and quality. B.S.! yes, you can build them to 120 hp, but it takes some doin' and lots o' $. Which most don't have. My argument is not with the serious harley rider that cares about his bike and mods it. It's the doucheBags that spend more on t-shirts and bandanas with flames on them, that tell me they have a faster/better bike than me. "jap-crap" they call it. Nobody will line them up, not even the guy who has 15k in his. (all in Chrome) oh, and mine is only worth 5 grand. So...pay alot, ride slow, uncomfortable. Pay less, ride very fast and reliable, and comfortable.  :lol: :thumbs:
People that buy harleys only buy them so other people with harley's think they are cool. Because they have that name on them.

Kyle, wasn't pickin' on ya. The little one was sick last night and I probably nailed down about 2 hrs of sleep total. I woke up, your post was the first I read. One of my biggest pet peeves.

missed you bitches guys today. :rofl: Actualy had work to do. R&D.

Harleys are a great way of keeping posers & tossers off real bikes!  :lol:
There are some real enthusiasts out there, & it dedpends on what you want the bike for.
I couldn't understand why ANYBODY would buy a Harley until I spent some time in the states.
Long roads with few corners, cops with guns, can start to see the attraction............

Still wouldn't buy one, & I have ridden them, so not talking through a hole in my ass, but if that is what lights your fire, don't let me stop you!
