There was a recent article in MCN about the enormous number of cars and pickups with a bike trailer parked 10-15 miles away from the Daytona Bike Week. And over here in Europe, most of the Harleys I see clearly are not being ridden much, or else the owner spends every waking hour polishing the chrome... That is one difference between BMW and Harley riders: the former ride, the latter polish. I have a lowly 500cc Suzuki and I ride it everywhere I can.
