Yup.
Of course, it's all relative. I used to drive a Cherokee. Talk about wind noise...

I usually have mine out as soon as we get a good heavy rain to wash the sand off the roads. A couple of years ago I had the bike out on my birthday (March 19th). That's not happening this year, though.

"The thing about Clarkson is that he thinks he can fix something by shouting at it"

I'm considering trading in the Suzuki towards a new Shadow Phantom, but haven't made up my mind yet. On the one hand, I really enjoy not having a "toy payment"
On the other hand....

 

That's a sweet looking machine! I could be swayed into a cruiser possibly. I fell in love with the Victory bike I demo'd. It was the Victory Judge


Damn, just realized how similar those bikes are, haha. I would realistically want to trade for a dual sport though. I want something single cylinder, easy to care for and I can tune it myself if it sits for a while.

 

I want that Harley bobber

 

Neither of those bikes are Harleys.

 

I want a million dollars

 

You know, just cause everyone is throwing out stuff they want...

 

881s ordered. Now I just need to find the time to install them

 

I've been considering the vsrc night rod I could trade and owe nothing. But should I ? Or lower my insurance and go thumper, as you can tell I'm not happy on the Duke

 

Have fucking fun taking those off. Johnny and I had a blast installing them! I wish you best of luck

 

What's wrong with the Ducati?

 

Have you riden on one yet? They're fast but I didn't like having my feet way the hell out in front of me. If you like sport bikes but want a cruiser, test ride the Victory Judge. That bike is incredibly comfortable and surprisingly nimble. I'd trade in a second if I could afford it.

You're taller than me, you should go Thumper. That's my issue with modern dual sports, they're freakin huge. I want one powerful enough to hold highway speeds (I'd love to have a 400+, prefer 600 or 650) but they're monsters.

 

If I had the money, I would be getting one of these. This is how I know I am getting old.

 

The bobber Harley makes.... Dumbass Ferd owner...

 

When I went to the Victory demo day, the rep said that bike has the best lean angle of any bike they make. I guess the frame is very stiff and their 'dressers' if you will actually handle better than the smaller cruisers they make.

 

I'm just going to bring them to a shop. Ain't nobody got time for exploding coil spring in the face

 

They're dangerous. I'll take them off your hands for your safety

 

Says the boy who drives the urban off road grocery getter

Harley makes a few bobbers, dumbass.

 

You can take them off my hands for monies.

 

I have been known to periodically stop by MOMs and sit on them. Took one for a ride a couple years ago and have been in love since. I want to do one of the Demo days this year.

 

If it's a nice day, get there early. I try to hit their demo day once a year. It's a lot of fun, especially if you're with a group of experienced riders because the leader will go as fast as the group wants. We hit triple digits down 95 last time and I can't tell you how many corners I dragged the foot peg around (which coming from a sport bike is a butt puckering experience the first time it happened).
