I've been riding since I was 10. Everything from homemade lawn-mower
powered belt drives, through the Benilli 90, into Hondas and damned near
everything else, into BMW. I'm on my second LT, a 90 k110 LT with ABS.
It's a sweet ride. And I've covered a lot of ground on it. But it's
always been a PITA in town, because it's so top-heavy.
I looked at a Guzzi California cruiser, but they're talking like it's
not going to be made next year. So, on the way back from my agent's in
Milwaukeed two weeks ago, I stopped at House of Harley Davidson. (You
know, if you're gonna live close to Milwaukee--why wouldn'tcha?)
He put me on a Softtail Heritage, and that was pretty cool. Not
exactly a good fit. So we moved up to a Road King. Perfect fit, right
amount of glitz, and it's still a motorcycle (unlike what BMW has
morphed into, today.) A bit heavy, but a dramatically lower center of
mass...and sweet on the open road.
So, that's the next toy. If I can crunch the numbers correctly, I
should be on it in September.
And with my MyFi, I can even have XM for long cruises.
If I could only figure out how to put a Becker 2340 on it for SW.....
I'm working on it.
Any recommendations for accessories....ie, bars, saddles for two up
cruising?
Peter. been there. mower minibikes, mopeds and a few more. your
going to fall in love with the road king. any question, go to-
rec.motorcycles.harley- nice group. good bunch of guys. you
