Come on, guys. Sport bikes and the cruisers that OCC builds are two different classes of motorcycles. We're talking apples and oranges here. I would put my Cobra up against anything that those OCC clowns build any day, any week. They are great craftsmen (at least Junior is...his Dad comes off as more of a hack to me). But they build pretty bikes, not fast ones.

Can't recall the last time I ever saw someone on a cruiser bike pushing 3 digits. They're simply not geared (and shocked) to deal with that.
