That was kind of my point. There are better alternatives for out of the box track ready.

Anyway, Im not trying to put down your bike. For around town and day to day riding, I think it is a great choice. V-twin means plenty of low end grunt (great for stop and go), still good power otherwise, comfortable riding position, etc. I think they are very good at what they were meant for.

Not to mention the looks on the new ones are much improved. Kinda has that "street fighter" look.
