You ride motorcycles correct? Do you ride a harley? Why not? How many people besides professional racers need the function of a sport bike as opposed to simply wanting it? > > The thread isn’t about paying money for something you don’t need, it’s about paying money for something not worth the price you’re paying. It’s a narrow distinction. Actually I ride an SV650, which is cheaper, and more functional than a Harley :lol I thought the topic was more to do with function per cost. If we can use wants to justify a need than sky is the limit, discussion becomes pointless. From a function standpoint nobody in US needs a motorcycle unless they live in somewhere where its warm year-round (so it can replace the car), or needs a watch that costs more than $10 to know what time it is. You all need to stop taking it personally and pouncing on me, I am not attacking anybody’s choices in what to want or have. We’re just talking wants vs needs here. I have want’s that don’t correspond with needs just like everyone else. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/what-items-dont-correlate-their-price-premium-to-their-functionality/266106)._
