From your experience is the ride on these any different than that of a current mid size to small motorcycle? Or do they have a unique personality all their own?

Stan, ya buy that for what it is, not for how it rides. In all seriousness I always felt they ride just fine. Fun bikes....that is what those are.

How's it looking on your end of things? Still up in the air?
Schedule looks pretty packed right now, I might be in Hawaii doing a job for the Honolulu PD.
