I like the red with the brown leather saddle.

Congrats on your decision to get this bike, but I also hope that you ignore your pole and get the color you like the most.

Safe Travels,
Richard

Why move from a Buell to the Scout though? It's interesting when someone switches to a completely different style of bike (as opposed to getting the same kind of bike but just bigger, smaller, or newer).

You mean the game with one less down and ten more yard than the 'Merican game as played by the National Fairies League?

Hmmmm, I'm not a big fan of that word to describe a cruiser to be honest. In fact, are not "gezzer glides" Gold Wings (and big touring bikes) thus the "glide" part of it?

But no matter, I do not think a 100hp cruiser could be called anything "that slow" as the Scout fits into the V-Rod category.... unless you also call a V-Rod a Gezzer Glide?

IMO, I think the Scout looks darn cool for a cruiser and in fact, I think it's easily the coolest cruiser on the market today.

Have you ever ridden an 1800 Goldwing??? Wow, that's no slouch in the power department either...

I agree as well... I guess the term came from "those who can afford such a bike"... I donno. I don't use it myself. :D
