Why would you buy a bike that only goes 87 miles before you fill it up. Nobody would wanna ride with ya. I guess if your a smoker.

..I use it for shorter trips, bombing around town..or runs to river side pub for lunch etc......its a lot of fun..good acceleration..fairly light weight and agile ...(compared to my FLHS) ...

I can understand how to some a bike that can only go 87 miles before it needs fuel seems completely unusable. I've lived in texas and kansas. I doubt I would own this bike if I still did..I can remember seeing a road signwhen I was traveling thru the pan handle than said " Next town 80 miles" ..mighty lonely road. anyway..I live in New England now..in 80 miles you could just about cross the whold state of New Nampshire from west to east..thing are a lot closer in these parts.

Yes i too will be buying a 48 as a second bike, keep my 2010 streetglide for those long trips and the 48 as a local bar hopper commuter little bike, i love it for the city, you can park it anywhere. The glide is way bigger so parking that baby takes a little looking around! The 48 is small, heck i can probably bring it into my ground level Apt.
