It does. For a lot of motorcycle enthusiasts the modest power output and questionable reliability of a Harley don’t make sense if you want a high performance bike.

Then again, in a highly surveilled and monitored society, a Hayabusa or something similar more revered makes zero sense since you can’t use the performance legally.

The Harley guys are having a lot of fun at modest speeds and the ‘busa riders are either frustrated or getting arrested. So which of these makes more sense?
