All the gold accessories take away from that bike in my opinion. But hey, it's got doors, and an automatic transmission!!  |

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Good on you! Well, I have had the bike for 3 days now. I am happy to report that the bike does everything pretty well that it was intended. it is a great commuter, looks more SS than it is...which I like"!! I took it for a Tantalus run.......first time on an inline 4 in 20 years. it will take some time getting used to the lack of engine braking. Bike has decent power...what it really lacks compared to the M900 & 675 are good brakes!!! All &all....I am happy with this purchase |

Yep. One thing though is that it is a first year model and the electrics weren't totally sorted. I found out the hard way with the 2003 but I still miss it. A 2005 or 2006 could be different though. That bike also has, at least, a Termi full can and maybe a full system, but you can't tell beyond the toaster. |
