this was educational for both the thought process and weblinks but what I like most (for comparision purposes) is a persons opinion. About their research. It is extermely helpful while looking at bikes to use someones own knowledge to help. I posted about changing front pads. I read the MOM but after asking on this forum, there was more I learned then just what the MOM said.

All bikes you mentioned were not american, any reason? I sat and road a standard bike, for some reason, I was not thrilled since I was somewhat pushed forward and used more arms (tir-cepts) which is a reason I like the cruiser much more. For me to pull over ever 35 to 50 miles is not the worst thing at this point, stretching is key to me. I find myself standing after 35 to 40 minutes or so of riding at traffic lights.

I would like to see how you and your GZ spark at turns. I know the foot pegs can be an issue. For me, mostly on left turns going from a flat surface up hill. Maybe you have engine guards...

I saw Victory and Harleys around and like the look, being that Harley starts at 883 - it could be a good starting point since it is basically around the 750 size.

Anyway, I very much so appreciate you post..
