The difference between the two is about $10K just to start. Then add another $5K for chrome for the Harley, a new seat as the stock one sucks, loud pipes to give it some more power, a jug kit to boost the CC's, gear drive for the cams and on and on and on. Before you know it you will have spent $30K plus for your Harley. The Honda can be driven as is for as long as you want without any upgrades.
