Here's some video from the test in this month's Kiwi Rider Mag.
One hell of a ride.

Anne loves the Night Rod, primarily because the bike is well weighted (being low and long n' all) and her feet are on the ground, she just can't reach the forward controls.
Real nice bike though, If it came to it, it would be either one of them of the Muscle

Real nice, I had a wee play on a 2007 one and loved it.

They have the weirdest riding position - OK for Big Dave has he has long legs. Anyone else sit on em feeling like they are riding out a really solid shit on a very cold loo.

Oh dear - is this comment for real - or are you just an arsehole?

Riding position is similar to most power cruisers. Takes a day to feel comfortable and works OK. Handlebars might need changing for real short folks.

Nah. Once used to it they're actually quite comfortable, and I'm only 5' 10".

One of my gripes with all the manufacturers is that saddle heights continue to get lower every year. Which in itself is fine - 'one for the ladies' - but they don't ever offer a tall seat option.

Yep, was just thinking the same thing yesterday, did the Coro loop with my mate and his wife and watched her struggle in a few
situations and relized how I took flat footing it for granted, I had a newby pillion with me and we stopped at the lookout after the Thames
coast for a stretch and she had a grin from ear to ear and said "Im getting my bike licence". The last thing the bike industry needs is a
newby being put off by something within their control to fix, surely slightly different shock setup or similar for some riders would be a
good compramise and everyone wins.
Also as u say higher seat options shouldnot be that hard to engineer.
Also I no not see the bike industry making enough of the fact that you could ride your bike on the road from 16 if you have your theory
and competancy test under your belt, but more likely 17 before you can travel solo in a car, so it seems an opportunity to bring them over
to the dark side and start their addiction

I found them to be very comfy, but I am 6ft. I would get one tomorrow, if I did not have a house to do up.
