185hp...interesting. Buell...less interesting. Always wish him well, but things just haven't worked out for very long for him. Good luck.

An elderly couple, who were both previously widowed were preparing for their wedding overseas.
Before they walked down the aisle they went out to dinner at a fancy restaurant where they discussed how their marriage might work.
They discussed their finances, living arrangements and so on.
Finally, the old gentleman decided it was time to bring up the subject of their physical relationship.
"How do you feel about sex?" he asked, rather tentatively.
"I would like it infrequently," the woman replied.
The man sat quietly for a moment, adjusted his glasses then leaned over towards her and whispered: "Is that one word or two?

A man walks into an Irish pub , and notices a very large jar on the counter and sees that it's filled to the brim with€10 bills.
He guesses there must be at least ten thousandEuros in it. He approaches the bartender and asks, "What's with the money in the jar?"
"Well..., you pay €10, and if you pass three tests, you get all the money in the jar and the keys to a brand new 2022 Landcruiser"
The man certainly isn't going to pass this up, so he asks, "What are the three tests?"
"You gotta pay first," says the bartender, "those are the rules."
So, after thinking it over a while, the man gives the bartender €10 which he stuffs into the jar.
"Okay," says the bartender, "here's what you need to do:
First - You have to drink a whole quart of tequila, in 60 seconds or less, and you can't make a face while doing it."
"Second - There's a pit bull chained in the back with a bad tooth. You have to remove that tooth with your bare hands."
"Third - There's a 90-year old lady upstairs who's never had sex. You have to take care of that problem."
The man is stunned! "I know I paid my €10 -- but I'm not an idiot! I won't do it! You'd have to be nuts to drink a quart of tequila and then do all those other things!"
"Your call," says the bartender, "but, your money stays where it is."
As time goes on, the man has a few more drinks and finally says, "Where's the damn tequila?!"
He grabs the bottle with both hands and drinks it as fast as he can.
Tears stream down both cheeks -- but he doesn't make a face -- and he drinks it in 58 seconds!
Next, he staggers out the back door where he sees the pit bull chained to a pole.
Soon, the people inside the bar hear loud growling, screaming, and sounds of a terrible fight -- then nothing but silence!
Just when they think that the man surely must be dead, he staggers back into the bar.
His clothes are ripped to shreds and he's bleeding from bites and gashes all over his body.
He drunkenly says, "Now..., where's that old woman with the bad tooth?”

The new Sportster. Good looking bike*. Good performance*. Good handling*. Do NOT understand puting the back brake reservoir where it's at. Review: 2022 Harley-Davidson Sportster S (Mid Control) (msn.com)
*For H-D.

I think it's the most reliable bike ever produced by hd and no I still wouldn't buy one.

The Pan America that I test rode had a really fun engine. I can imagine it being retuned a bit for more down low torque, should be a winner in the Sportster.
Two inches of suspension travel? I guess I get the appeal of a lower bike to bring in more riders, but that should be an option and not the standard.
Yeah, the rear brake reservoir looks like something someone bought on Wish and put onto their homemade cafe racer.
At first I wasn't sure about the looks, but it's growing on me. I guess I just like that it's not a cookie cutter HD?
I guess I will be keeping an eye out for a test ride, no plans to buy one but it's always good to get a feel for different bikes.
Cites at equivalent latitudes, some of which are surprising.
