My wife asked that question - I told her that anyone that rides a motorcycle is looking for a bigger, better one.About the only thing I get from my buddies is..."Did you HAVE to get the biggest one out there?" I simply answer "yep...go big or go home". Other than that mostly compliments on my bike. But then summer hasnt hit yet where I can get out and ride more often. So we shall see.
I just saved myself a lot of time buying and selling bikes and went straight to the best.
