Speedmaster & America = Mid weight cruiser classification
Are they considered touring bikes? No.
Can one tour on it? Why sure.
There's one guy on the Iron Butt forum who rides
a 150 something or other all over the nation.
To each his own.
Great bike for $8,000 new? Sure.
My first choice for a 48 state tour? Nope.
But that's just me.
One of life's finer lessons - if someone does not agree
with me, it doesn't mean either one of us is wrong.
Big horsepower = small weiner? Absurd. I think that opinion
is usually supplied by those lacking in both departments.
I liked it better here when the disrespect wasn't
part of the every day like it is now, which is why I
stopped coming around for so long - too much like reading
something along the lines of a dialog of the divorced
but hey - that's just me. No one has to agree with that.
;-)
If I found a genie in a bottle, and was given a choice
of America/Speedmaster - Rocket - or T Bird...
I wouldn't pick America or Speedmaster.
On the other hand, I absolutely love my Speedmaster,
despite it's shortcoming as an $8,000 motorcycle,
such as a glaring lack of fork dampers, shaky electricals,
stock shocks that I wouldn't put on a ricshaw,
headstock bearings that are of laughable quality.
Geez guys - you couldn't afford 3 or 4 more ball bearings within the race?
