New Harley

Isn't that a win/win situation? If you guys can afford why not.

The one thing I definately notice it the weight difference. He says that I can take his bike out whenever, but I'm afraid that I'll ride his and won't want to ride my C50 anymore! Maybe he's hoping that he'll get his new bike sooner that way...

I had put 18500 miles on the C-50 in about 17 months. I do not miss the C50 at all but it was a good bike and I have some great memories riding it with the wife. That said it is not an EGC. It, the C 50, is way better then the VTX 1300 or the 1100 Star. There is a wieght difference on the HD and they are a really great handleing bike at slow speeds. But some people don't like the vibrations etc....The Heritage has the B range motor so it won't shake as much and any shaking is only at an idle.

Congrats on the Harley. I hope I could afford a Harley too.

I have written this in another thread before, but its worth repeating in light of the above posts. Where I live SE US, everyone waves to each other. The only ones that don't wave are the folks on those BMW Dual Sports. The ones that look like thery are riding aroound the world on the thing. They never wave. But the metrics, the choppers, customs, and even the crotch rockets all wave.
