    Whether it's a Suzuki or Yamaha it really makes no difference. The only true comfortable bike to ride is a cruiser. Definitely NOT a sport bike.

    When I bought my 2008 model I was actually there to buy a new 1000. After looking at the orange busa (which is in my garage now) the sales guy told me that he would sell me the busa for the same price as the gixxer 1000....I jumped all over that my friend.:biggrin_255:

    In my 27th consecutive year of riding, have owned many different brands, currently on an '05 Ural Tourist and an '07 Road Glide.

    1999 FLHRCI Road King Classic Twin Cam 88 cu.in. Sinister Blue and Diamond Ice
    Only 2 non-Harley parts: Ness License plate frame, and an extended brake pedal.

    HD Frenched headlight rings, color matched air cleaner and nacelle, matched fender skirt trim, derby and timing cover, baby apes, teardrop mirrors, quick detach kits, blackwalls, no stupid ugly safety bars, modified bag bars, chip upgrade, vance and hines pipes. 125 is fast enough, 0-60 in "oh is my back tire smokin?" 55000 miles, never needed anything but oil, sparkplugs, filters, tires, and brake pads. Doesn't need a top end job, and it don't leak oil. If your TwinCam don't run 100000 miles, you broke it.

    Love it, never need another bike, WANT a 357 rigid frame Proper Chopper with a 107" RevTech and skinny tires. but that's a different story, for the me my wife never forgot she married. Hell she don't ride anymore anyway, what do I need a 2 up seat for?
