Too bad cruisers on the highway will outrun sport bikes in terms of top speed and ability to drive it consecutively at those speeds without the bike starting to shake, flip over or fall apart.
I ride a zx9 and am proud to say I have never been Out ran by no ball jangelling fucking cruiser!! And if any one has let a kawi don't to that point do humanity a fav shoot urself;)
Pfft, I sure hope you haven't been outrun by a cruiser. Then again, IT'S NOT THAT HARD TO RIDE FASTER THAN A CRUISER IN THE FIRST PLACE. There's nothing to be proud of buddy, it's nothing too special.
@JFong0693 thats funny you say that because my brother has a 1900 yamaha raider and he smokes 600 rockets. Now dont hound me about how thats so many cc's difference, 600 riders think they can smoke anything cruiser related. I used to ride a 600 rocket myself.
@jowek70 ha and u can ride ur nut sack racking plastic bike. And theres harleys from 1930's still on the road. if ur ninja is still on the road in 80 years il have little respect for it
@deleter220 cruisers are just a different style, do all fat people like a certain clothes style ? no....they don't....i'm a fit person and i ride a cruiser.
@deleter220 nope...have u tried riding a sportbike with a belly mate? it looked ridiculous and you're just gonna break your back doing it...i was using RS250 and ZX6R...not anymore now ahahhaha
it's not the speed i don't like it's the style of the bike being tight in the form and leaning foreward so much like your hugging the tank for dear life.
LOL I feel ya and I think cruisers look better anyways, more comfortable, they sound better. And most accidents happen when the crotch rocket fags try to show off instead of just cruising.
that shadow is slow, mine might as well be the ninja compared to this dudes, but mine doesnt have a windshield, and it does have some baddass pipes, but yea idn wuts up here
People like to compare speed versus comfort, but it's more than that. The Shadow is not a slow vehicle by any measure, but personally I prefer the low speed torque over the high RPM rush of a sport bike. To each their own.
Wheres the comparison? You have a bike that weighs probably 100 lbs less going against a bike with a rider and someone riding bitch while filming. probably had 400 lbs riding on the shadow. Sportbikes are meant to be driven fast and cruisers are meant to be seen.
a good friend of mine has a shadow 750 and I have a ninja 250. My bike matches his for top speed and acceleration almost exactly... except for off the line, where he obviously has way more torque.. but by the time he's shifting into 2nd I've caught back up and then we're neck to neck. I'm sure the cruiser is more comfy... I enjoy the cornering performance of my bike more than I would enjoy sitting comfortably.. but to each his own.
my vt750c is awesome, i can ride 250 miles a day without a problem...i ride with a buddy that has a gixxer 750. his bike is fast and he can ride it all day too...but he has to relax when we get home.....i am still ready to go....what do you want? speed vs. comfort
haha, you can't really compare a sportbike to a cruiser... the difference in size. a cbr 600 could smoke it, they're made totally different, and the tach on those things wraps high as hell, you don't buy a cruiser for speed, more for comfort, that 900 could prolly beat my 1100 shadow. but at the end of the day i'm still prolly the one with the bigger smile on my face. and about the windshield huber, it doesn't eliminate wind but it helps a hell of a lot
cruiser is what you get when you realize you will pay about 2.5 times more for crotch rocket insurance because morons stunt them and the ones that don't die file claims.
I've had both, and would put a Japanese cruiser way above a Harley any day. First of all a Harley is way over priced and seem to like going in the shop a lot. Ride a Harly Road King and then ride a Gold Wing. No comparison. Not even close.
you need all 1200 of those cc's to offset your lack of dick!... haha. Big bike's are great but don't mock those of us who may not be able to afford bigger and better. I'm still out there in the wind.
I have a Honda Shadow 750, and it accels decent enough to have fun. OF COURSE a Ninja should be able to smash my cruiser. That's why they're called crotch rockets. Cruisers are meant to be relaxed and fun, not sick fast. Like secoepollo said, run with the same kind of bikes, and give some respect to us V-twin riders.
