Well I agree that some roads are just too much compared to the turning ability and safety, but over all I would not trade the comfort of my Mean Streak for and sports bike. I rid with a friend that has a 2006 V-Max and after about 4 bike lengths on takeoff Mean Streak quickly over takes it and the rest is history. I ride 200 miles that day, his butt is broke, and legs killing him from being stuck up behind him. I am still ready to go relaxed and comfortable. To each his own, stay with Meanie!
and this is why i have to have a sport machine...ground clearance for the win! You were railin on that thing though...for a cruiser that's pretty good...thing looks like it didn't want to hold a line though and you had to force it to stay in the corners hehe
I would like a sport bike also, but the way I am, I would probably try to find the limits and you know what that means. this road is notorious for being a danger zone because of cagers taking the whole road cutting corners, usually the line I take is the one with the best view of what is ahead on the road.
Being on a closed track would be a blast, I take it you do that when you can.
ya dude that's what I do! Come out and race bro it's waaay more fun and you meet awesome people. I race with WMRRA and OMRRA up here in the northwest. If you're in cali you have WERA, AFM and some others! Definitely check it out!
Just bought a vulcan 800 today....i know it leans that far, but i'm too noob to try it yet. It's only been 20 years since I rode, and tat was a dirt bike :O
What song was that and what is that on the front of the bike?

@AmericanBiker5150 its a piece of foam pipe insulation, sliced, with the camera wedged into it to cut vibration from the vtwin.
