    It was then i decided i want to get a cruiser,I like the old late 70's H/D sportser. I could be like a young new age untattooed (spelling) old school Harley rider.
    But you better learn to be a mechanic too!

    (But they ARE cool bikes and easy to learn to work on)

    Yeah, you're on your bike, ain't that where ya want to be? Why rush to your destination, you'll only have to get off your bike!

    Good call dude ( I bet you ain't under 25 years old though!)

    It all depends on conditions and what I'm out for. If I'm touring I want to see the countryside so keep it between $0.90 to $1.10. If its a real thrash I want could be $1.60 to $1.80.

    I'm thinkin for my next bike I'll need to get a Sporty or a power cruiser. I love my VN but I ride like a sprot biker when I go for a thrash and she's a bit of a tubby bitch for that sort of riding.
