I got crap about riding a Honda PS-250 Big Ruckus.....mostly from "posers"
Then I made it on this list twice after riding 1058 miles in 22 1/2 hours.....

Haven't heard squat from them after that (of course I keep asking them when they want to go out for a ride, which the excuses keep coming)
I'm waiting for someone to give me crap about my new 883 when it finally get's delivered (mid-March to mid-April)
Then all I say is, let's ride and see who the girl is!

I like the basic looks of those things. Don't know how comfortable they are, but my Helix is actually more comfortable than my Harley (has a longer wheelbase, it's not one of those Vespa type shorties). But a day long trip... I'm reluctant to run any engine near wide open for hours at a time, although people claim these Honda 250 engines will do that indefinitely. Funny thing is, I've only had it on a highway once, and could cruise faster than I do on my Sporty; it doesn't vibrate near as bad over 60. I still can't see taking a long trip on it; I like hill climbing and passing power, neither of which these little motors have, even if they can hit 70 on the flats.

Why should it go with the territory? If anything, I think that some of the bigger Harley bikes are MORE of a girls bike. I mean, after all, AM/FM radios, tape or disc players, heaters, heated grips and seats, cruise controls, and on and on, now that's a girls bike if I ever heard of one, compared to a Sportster.

My wife love to ride with me on my sporty! I would have asked the girl when she was gonna buy you a new bike! I would about guarantee my sporty would burn her softail! If people dont like what we ride then they should go with us to the dealership and purchase us the bike they would like for us to ride!
