.i have been riding for over 40 years had .literally scores of every bike ..good attention to details in fit and. finish . everything works right..this one is a keeper! | ||||||
| the ergonomics of this bike are perfect, every thing fits me right and works well. the fifth gear is really an actual overdrive ,with a sweet easy cruise at 75 m.p.h. my wife and i just completed a short 3 day trip to tennesee from ohio, and spent 7 hours in the saddle with no butt burn or pain. great seats!. plenty of power climbing the twistie mountain back roads. and you can cover lots of ground ,and do remarkably well in the real tight stuff without dragging the floorboards or mufflers. goes like an 800 pound crotch rocket! the only complaint i have is paddling around a parking lot at low speed, yoy can really feel the weight of this beast. i am five foot ten and seat height is a little too tall for comfort at sub walking speed. excellent cruise controll. 45 to 48 m,p.g. all in all you will be very hard pressed to find any thing that will do a better job of eating away the miles without eating away at your wallet. |
