I haven't ridden any modern cruisers,just the 80s stuff like Viragos,Savages and Intruders,they're ok and it's kinda fun to scrape along at low speeds.
I was unfortunate enough to know Judy Volare - I'm a short arse but could tuck her under my armpit.She rode a Virago 1100 around Australia,well she started on a Suzi 250 but soon dumped it for the Virago.Her husband Mack had a XJ750 or maybe 850 triple,they got so used to them they brought them home.We had to sit through an evening of a ''this is me'' slide show,but I wasn't bored - bloody hell,she took this thing up the Birdsville Track,a lot of young guys have trouble there on all out dirt bikes.Just goes to show that arogance can over come the short comings of your bike.
