exactly ... looks like a great bike, but i would NEVER spend that much to own one.
quite honestly, i'd end up buying a sport bike before i bought a cruiser

Re: Cruisers Not harleys
Buy whatever YOU like. My personal opinion is that the only good bikes are:
Real sport bikes, none of this Katana, bandit, ninja 250 bullshit
Harley's, and im not talking sportsters
and customs
I just look at all these cruiser bikes as wanna-be harleys

Re: Cruisers Not harleys
Have you ever ridden a Harley? They are the most uncomfortable bike in the world. It's like riding a concrete block with two wheels on it that just shakes the entire time you are riding it. So, like I said, I spent a whole lot less and got a better bike. Just my opinion though.

Yes I have and I liked it, the whole thing does shake, as well as everything around it, but thats the whole point.
Like I said before, whatever you like, is what you like.
This is my friends new Bourget he just picked up about a month ago, now this is nice!

Re: Cruisers Not harleys
We have a 1994 Virago but I refuse to ride it. Don't get me wrong, it's a great bike but it doesn't have enough power to make the bike fun. I also don't like the riding position.
Whats wrong with Sportsters?? 
It's a Harley but weighs a lot less than it's bigger dinosaurs. 
Those bourget customs are pretty nice too but I can't stand having my feet up front like that. Too uncomfortable of a position to me for riding.

Speeking of Magna's.. Does anyone know where I can find parts for a 1987 Super Magna? I need the carbs, exhaust, radiator, guages, headlight, and a few other misc things.
