I hate Harley as a company, not there bikes.
If you ride any type of bike, you would know that pipes do save lifes.
I hate Harley Davidsons

Yes, it is the 2 stroke. A buddy has a race ready YZ125 and even after tune ups and even when he first got it (stock), had to flip the throttle so it wouldn't shut off. Every 2 stroke dirtbike (have never seen a 2 stroke quad) I have seen had to.
EDIT: If you don't and it shuts off too many times you foul the plug.
Ive been a professional motorcycle mechanic for the last 15 years or so and own a two stroke street bike. There is something wrong with all the 2 strokes you have seen that will not idle. I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that at least the idle mixture is too rich if it stalls and then fouls the plug. There could be more issues. Where should i send the bill?
BTW, PDI on a 2 stroke dirtbike involves setting the idle mixture at operating temp. and lots of techs dont do it.Leave a comment:

We literally moved from our neighborhood 3 years ago because of the Harleys that gathered every night at the local neighborhood bar. Woke us up at 2 in the morning every night of the week. They also suck at riding. Get behind one on a winding mountain road and they are slower than the minivans. Total douchebags.Leave a comment:

I remember when I first started to ride id do the wave to every rider including harley guys. Last year not one waved back. They alienate themselves from the inside with their "image." So now I dont wave at any harley guy.Leave a comment:

Not a 2 stroke problem.
Adjust the idle screw.
Clean and tune the carb. ;)Leave a comment:

I'm sure my neighbors say the same thing about my car when I'm having to barely throttle it to get over speed bumps without killing my cat.
How do people NOT like that sound?Leave a comment:

the machines are built (often by the rider) to produce a loud, obnoxious, lumpy sound.Sorry but it is not the machine that is to blame. We have a local bar that has move amazing HD than you can shake a stick at. They are polite with their bikes. One 400lb guy ones a Boss Hog! That bike is a monster
Personally I am a Ducati man at heart =)
But this is coming from the guy that has a straight pipe exhaust.
we can totally blame whatever we wantLast edited by imsotyerred; 05-17-2011, 01:33 PM.Leave a comment:

Yay, that was my intention. That was all paraphrased from a friend of mine who is about 375 lbs. He's pretty much limited to a Harley.
Just for the record, if I were ever to get a bike (I doubt I ever will--my parents will write me out of the will if I do, and by the time they die, I'll probably be old enough that my reflexes won't be fast enough anymore), I would want, in this order: Vincent, Harley, Triumph, BMW, Norton, Indian.Leave a comment:

Why buy a Harley?--Responses from a man who wouldn't fit on anything else
Because I'm not gay
Because I can drive up to any bikerbar and not worry about someone saying "who's the waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles on the honda?
Because when I hit the throttle, my dick grows another three inches
Because have you ever met a chick who says "I dig Suzukis"?
Because when you say I have a Harley, no one wonders if its a jetski, or a snowmachine, or a lawnmower, or an outboard, or a powerwasher
Because nothing powered by Harley Davidson ever shot at Americans
Because BMW doesn't make a thong for my girlfriend
Because its a lot harder to find rice to power a bike
Because when I go hog hunting, she needs to be able to fit on the back
Because I hate my parents; they told me I couldn't get one
Because my hair is falling out, my waist is bulging, maybe the Harley can compensate
Because no-one ever looked at someone on a Ducati and thought where the berkeley does he keep his gun?
Because when I start up my Kawasaki, my neighbor doesn't bitch
I wont lie, I laughed my ass off.Leave a comment:
