He says it is. It was his first long ride on it, so I didn't have the heart to ask him if I could ride it. I'm sure i'll get a turn or 2 on her. He knows i've liked them since they came out in 99. I'll only get in trouble buying a bike like that though.

Yeh, and I wonder how a 90" NRHS kit will run against a Zipper's Muscle 124" kit w/ 140.9 tq & 130.7 hp on a big twin.

I don't get the whole smack talk either. I ride a Nightster and my buddies ride: 08 Road King classic, Victory King Pin, Street Bob, BMW (???), and a Yamaha R6. We just like to hit the road.
