Good Points

The bike is an inexpensive way to have an awesome classic look.


Bad Points

Shifter is a little clunky, but improves as bike warms up. I mean neutral can be a little difficult during the first part of the ride.


General Comments

Real cool appearance but backed up with a very decent ride and overall performance. I added the solo seat and saddle bags to my bike with the 40's model look. Also, my humble steed gets double takes from guys on road kings all the time. Forget the low-to-the-ground ride. This bike sets you up in the real world. I passed a Jeep Cherokee yesterday and could see over the roof. I can ride side-by-side with an SUV and look at the driver at eye level. This is a very visible and, in my opinion, a safer ride than lower bikes. The handling of curves drops with the narrow tires and the top speed is 75 mph, but anything over that is illegal anyway. The bike handles very well overall and is a true joy to take out on the scenic routes.
