Nice bike. There's a lot to be said for the start it and go of modern engineering as opposed to the days of standing next to your bike with your tongue hanging out and a tired leg from ten minutes of kicking because you haven't adjusted the points lately. Speaking from experience.
Absolutely correct. I left from San Berdoo, went to Missoula then on to Sturgis then home in seven days and had a nice ride. It's great to just put your hand on the throttle and the other resting by the rear rocker box and just enjoying the ride. The one thing I really liked was the gas gauge. I do think that modernization has gone off the rails a tad with GPS, cup holders, cell phone holders, wide screen touch pads, and heaven knows what else. What's next, curb feelers?
