No, that's a cruiser through and through. It just has some sportbike tech on it.

Picked up a new battery for the Sabre after work today and checked out and sat on the Yamaha FJZ 1300, Honda ST1300 and Kawasaki Concours 14.

All nice bikes, but I liked the feel and styling of the Yamaha, plus its between 2 to 3 grand cheaper then the other two. Now all I have to do is talk to my friend dealership into letting me take them out for a test ride.

Still like to get some feed back from riders of those models.

I do like the look of that bike, it oozes pure, uninhibited, unadulterated, animal sex. It's a rolling piece of both exotic and erotic art. However, I just am not interested in riding a cruiser at this point.

It looks like a Homer Simpson futurebike.
