I hate to say it but the biggest lie is "it's a harley it will keeps its value!"
The only motorcycle that I have owned that really kept its value was a KLR650.  I rode it for 2 years and sold it for $500 less than I paid for it new.

Your "buff right out" pic makes me get all sentimental and Christmasy.

Don’t worry about the oil.. It’ll wash out.

Relax, the road will straighten out.

No honey, if you do this, I wont think of you any differently…

Another pair of personal favorites:

"It will quit smoking like that once the new piston rings get seated"

And:

"I fixed the broken speedo cable right away, it probably only had 100 miles put on it"


But it looked so easy on TV to build one of these.

Sweetie, if WE get the detachable sissy bar and bag hardware it will be just like having a second motorcycle but for only a few hundred dollars.  See how different it looks?  I won't have to spend time unbolting the bags to wash it either.
