Better riding experience? No loctite required, you will feel your fingers most of the day, you can go 300km without fuel, and if you keep your bike maintained it should go past 80,000KM without replacing your stator, a few clutches, intakes, crank sensors, rocker cover gaskets... or major repairs.No argument the metrics are cheaper but how do you figure they are more dependable or provide a better riding experience? Especially the riding experience, any metric cruiser I've ridden is about as boring to ride or look at as watching paint dry.
All cruisers are boring to ride (VROD/VMAX/Diablo/M109 excepted). Midweights are 600lbs with 40HP, cushy suspension, 1 disk one drum, 5 gears, 30 degree lean angle... how do you make that exciting?
