I respect HD as they lead the cruiser industry forever, but I just could never get into the "HD or Nothing" mantra that everyone was chanting a few years ago. I remember going to a bike night when I had a Ducati and not one of the HD guys would even talk to me, not to mention that I have no idea how each owner of a black Harley could find his bike in the mass of black ones.

I still wanted an American-made big cruiser so I bought a Victory Vegas. I loved that bike, but when I got married and had my son, I sold it. Just too dangerous with the antique drivers (the people not cars) where I live. Maybe another someday, but since they canned Victory in lieu of Indian, even they lost me. I'll check one out when the time comes, but that whole deal stunk it up too.
