The reasons I believe I purchased this roadster .

I like Harleys but I don't like the thought of my flesh scraping against the pavement.

This seems the closest thing to a Harley-Davidson with less risk.

they always caught my interest even though I rarely see one in New Jersey on the road.

I'm going to be 52 in April if this was 20 years ago it would probably not be a good idea, but now hopefully I will not get too crazy with it.

I stopped at the Harley-Davidson dealer today matter-of-fact to pick up some s100 wax and leather treatment,and feel that I made the right choice risk wise. Bikes are just too risky here in Jersey lost a couple of friends over the years .

same thing with me, always loved the Harley until I laid one down badly on my left leg. Pulled the trigger on a Cobra after ten years of searching, going to retire next year, then I'm gonna start living my teenage years all over again, but more wiser of course.

Time to shake up all my neighbors.

Enjoy your ride. tin-man
