even if you had an old rigid frame I'd still go for a electric start instead of the kick start... just my own personal opinion... My bro is into cruisers and is customizing his shadow 1100. I'd love to get one eventually but for now I'm just fine with my hawk

i was on the ferry next to a guy on a triumph one day last summer. When he went to get off the ferry (he clearly rides the thing every day to/from work) he just hauled *** off it and where it meets the dock, he basically used it like a jump. i swear he got his bike a good foot and a half to 2 feet off the ground. It was crackin me up

I don't ride old school but right now I ride a 1994 1200 sportster. that bike has more money in crome then all the money I have put into my cbr. I am so afriad to drop it.

also the stepfather rides a 2002 heritage softail. I like it when its stripped no bags, no windsheild, no passenger seat.

Your dad's bike is sick. He's got good taste.
