When the affects of the drugs/alcohol wear off you will hopefully realise what a mistake it was to start this thread.
Stay with the Harley,and don't just become one of the 'clones', if you hanker after a day out on a BMW/Trailie then by all means rent one for a day.
This will now probably start a pro/anti Harley debate

I would agree.
Pretty much any bike can go anywhere in the world, with the exception of the obvious offcourse (lowrider with roadtires in the Sahara might not be so fun).
Rent a small trailbike if you want to go offroad, but otherwise have fun riding mex.
If you still want to swap your bike, then go to the "sell/swap bike forum" in the bottom of the page.

harleydan,
I have a tricked out '08 KLR(hard bags/top box/heated grips/scottoiler/rick mayer seat,etc,etc), very low miles, that I would swap, even up, for your '08 roadglide :-) Hell, I would even ride it to Mazatlan to met you as you get off the ferry.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
