they are all high proformance sport bikes and are all probably of very good quality. Being no expert not sure why im telling you what you probably know. But yes, all are aggressive, fast, bikes.

yeah, that's what i thought... plus cruisers (the good ones that weigh around 700lbs) are built for bigger guys.Mintbread wrote:The majority of bike racers are of a smaller weight and stature for the same reason their horseracing counterparts are. Better power to weight ratio.
i just can't see myself enjoying and looking good on a cruiser bike.

Vermilion is about your size Sev. And you ride whats basically a sportbike (ok so you started on a cruiser).
Im a bit bigger than you two (5'10", 200lbs) and find that im usually too small for the bigger cruisers, I just seem to be stretched out on them. I fit the small cruisers ok but dont care for cruisers in general.
