I had one of these last year

I thought I would like the laid back style and comfortable ride but to be honest I found it completely boring. Sure it was 1300cc but that doesn't translate to instant torque and lighting fast response. If you want that kind of response and handling obviously sportbikes are your answer.

All depends on what you want Rick, I have had both and I much prefer the adrenaline rush when you open up a sportsbike on a windy road instead of the slow and loud rumble of a cruiser. As soon as I drove the cruiser off the lot I knew I had made a mistake...

Different strokes for different folks I guess
