Or go for the V7 Police, and join a Village People tribute band

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Just one question, does it come equipped with a plow?

I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"

Triumph have made a couple of attempts at the cruiser thing too.
I quite like the look of this one.
I'm right 98% of the time so why worry about the other 3%?

They also have a humungous central heating radiator strapped across the front.
Problem is that buying a cruiser not made by Harley is buying an imitation. And I'm not even convinced that they are better engineered not that engineering istoo important with cruisers anyway
That said I'm not looking for a cruiser as such, just a comfortable road bike for someone who isnt bothered about going fast.
I would take some convincing that guzzi are even as reliable as hd.

The pic is actually a Thunderbird. 1600cc twin. The Rocket 3 is in different league of WHY?
