When I went for my motorcycle test at the local DMV there were two ladies working in there. They were ~50 years old I guess. I passed my written exam and was waiting to do the driving test. One looked at the other and asked if she was going to go with me to do the driving test. She answered that she saw me ride up on it and that was good enough for her. I passed, lol. I had a Yamaha YZF600R at the time.
To be fair most of the riders around here who own sports bikes drive like douches.

Shame kawi stopped making the Mean Streak bikes...they looked real tough too. If you dont mind a used bike, they may be something you'd like.


While its not a full cruiser, the new gen Concourse Sport Touring bikes are basically good at everything, and will smoke pretty much any other cruiser around except for maybe a V-Max in a straight line. Review sites love this bike - its only real competition is the WAY more expensive K1600 GT BMW(It is around $10,000 more). Detuned Gen1 ZX14 motor. Maybe they will give it the nasty Gen2 motor next year???
Kawi did nothing more than a copycat of the VRod. Not a Harley fan in general, but would have a VRod before the Japanese version of it. No offense intended.

Lol the Mean Streak? That's just a Vulcan with some pretty custom paint and matte black accents. Kawi never made a V-rod clone. They don't have a muscle cruiser. In fact, Harley did nothing more then a copycat of the V-Max . That is the japanese V-Rod, not the comparatively underpowered Mean Streak. Mean streak was not meant to compete with the V-rod.

The V-Rod is a nice bike and is way faster then the Mean streak(V-Max stomps them both though)...but the Mean Streak did everything else better (braking, handling, MPG, etc).

I'd get a V-Max over a V-Rod any day of the week...but those are both very different bikes from the typical high TQ/low HP standard cruisers.

Greg told me to keep the C5 Z06 rims. They are the same weight as the Magnesium C5 wheels. I learn something everyday.

Anyone know someone that can raise inside door frames in the house so that extremely tall people can fit through?????????????????????????????????????

Actually, my bad... I just woke up. I meant the top picture.. the Suzuki. I am a Suzuki fan.. had an 06' GSXR600. Until my wreck in 09' gained me a trimalleolar fracture on my left ankle. 4 surgeries in 1 year sucks.

And, the V-Max is a sweet bike if you want a cruiser that moves the %$#@ out... always liked those.

As long as the frame you want to raise is not on a load-bearing wall, its just a matter of cutting and reboxing the frame, sheetrock, and trim.
