> Riders who really don't know much about motorcycles often buy cruisers I've been riding bikes since I was 12, starting with a Honda 50. And I've ridden everything from BSAs to Kawasakis to Triumphs. Street, dirt, you name it. At this time I own the aforementioned Honda, as well as two off-road (a Honda and a Kawasaki). I have no idea how many bikes I've owned but it would certainly be more than 20 as I have tended to own multiple bikes at a time. The cruiser is perfect for the job it is designed to do. I'm fine with Harleys, but at this stage of my life I only ride a few months out of the year and I'd rather be riding them than working on them (which wasn't always the case). Crotch rockets are about the most useless POS one can imagine, at least for an adult. While the FZ1 is one of the fastest street bikes on earth, and handles better than anything else I've ridden at high speed, it is very difficult to ride it at under 100mph. Speed is no longer a factor for me. I've done all that. I guess you could say I outgrew it. Apparently, you didn't.
