But they do ride long and they ride smooth, once you get past the hangup of
an opposed flat engien sticking out. I've ridden one from Vegas to Tampa and
never once had a backache or sore butt. My old panhead used to jar my
kidneys but much of that was the hard frame combined with the older
technoology engine. I had a Harley 54 (the Harley made trike) and it rode
smooth as glass. I bought that one for $400 from the Chicago Police auction,
and it only had 15k miles on it, all inner city downtown miles. I sold it a
year later for over $5k...
I do like the older HD's but after visiting a shop last month (did a printer
repair for them) I have lost the interest in at least their newer items.
