looks nice 81, but here is my scoot of choice, can't wait for the warm!
 
Actually it is very comfortable, this is how I like to sit on a bike!
I always felt the crotch rockets looked uncomfortable too and I
rode a buddy of mines Hurricane several years back and it wasn't
bad, but I prefer the ride of my chopper! And yes it's loud but not
obnoxiously loud as it appears believe it or not, and it's fast, not
designed for racing but 0 to 80 mph in a blink, and doesn't start to
shimmy 'til I hit over 100mph, so I don't do that too often lol..
(113 ci S&S, and it's all hopped up - well over 130hp!) but I wouldn't
want to race you - I'm a cruiser..loud, low and lovin' it!! :drool:

I am sure you are sick fast on that rocket! So ride safe and live long:thumb:

That site is going to bankrupt me. Every day it seems like I find something new I want to do (already did springs and zx-10r shock) or buy (just started riding last spring and already buying more and better riding gear).
