Yes, I've had 5 Harleys and a Buell. I won't say anything bad about Harleys -- now some of the people that ride them . . . well . . . best left unsaid.

You can say that about any group of riders!
I have had BMW riders give me a hard time when I was riding my Harley. Sport bike riders, same deal.
I few years back I stopped for fuel and there was a handful of BMW riders there. I walked up to a small group of them and mentioned I was interested in buying a BMW, nice bikes. Pretty much just a blank stare from the group, a couple of short comments. Then I asked where they were riding too. Then one of the riders told me to get on my POS Harley and leave the real riders alone! It really made me want to go buy a BMW if this was the riders attitude! Plus at the time I was riding 15,000-20,000+ miles a year so I was not your bar hopper rider.
I have long since figured out there is A-holes where ever you look and what they are riding has little to do with it. If any BMW riders showed up with the group of HD riders I hang with you would be invited to ride along with. There may be some light hearted ribbing going on, but most of my group doesn't care what you ride. I have ridden my RT on HOG rides!
