I just can't resist opening up this can of worms: Cobras made their reputation based on superior function. The form was certainly spectacular, but the legend grew out of the fact that they accelerated, turned, and stopped better than anything else. Today's Harleys are all noise and shine. Cobras deserve to be better than that.

BTW, I've owned Harleys since 1970, and still have a kick-only stroker Sportster in the garage. But for real two wheel fun, I climb on the Kawasaki.
