It will hold me over until I get a Harley or a Big Dog.

My sisters always loved that 'cruiser/custom' style of bike but for me its always felt a little too much like riding a sofa ... very comfortable and civilised, which wasn't really why I enjoyed biking.

For me I love SuperMoto bikes, you get the buzz of cornering hard like on a racer but the height and visual advantage of a MotoX bike in traffic ... oh and they look cool as f**k too

I blame it on this:

When I was a kid, one of the local bike shops had one in which had the full Paris Dakar gear on it, weird instruments the lot ..... never did get to ride it, but it was huge and cool
