I live in the area of the country where HD has a factory and there's a HD Dealer every 10 miles down the road, and everybody walks around dressed up like Harley Zombies and these people have this attitude if you own a metric bike your taking their jobs from them.
Most of the guys riding HD's are over 50, bald, fat, have no jobs, they have some sort of fake work disability that they get paid for not working, its appalling how they are too unhealthy to work but they can ride their oversize HD all day.
As a former member of the military I have pride for my country and I have a flag pole mount displaying the American Flag on the back of my Japanese Bike, but these lazy-worthless HD Riders take great offense to anybody flying the flag on the back of a metric bike, so they will ride close to you, rip the flag off your bike, then throw it on the ground run over it and burn it, then after that insult you, threaten you and even try to run you off the road.
I have a good reason to hate them!
