For an alternative perspective, I much prefer riding a cruiser style bike on straight, flat, empty highways in rural USA. Many Harley enthusiasts seem to feel the same way.
- barrkel 15y agoFor sure, if sitting in a chrome armchair floating across the slowly-changing landscape is your thing, rather than actually riding... :-P
- rdouble 15y agoI also like cross country skiing and long walks on the beach.
- aiscott 15y agoHarley rider here. I'm with you. I like to be able to look around a little bit rather than be forced to watch for sudden turns all the time. I did have a ninja zx6r for a few years, and it was a lot of fun. And I did prefer the curvy roads with that bike. Rides were short and intense, like a roller coaster. But if I'm going on a 500 mile ride, I don't want it to be a roller coaster. Or even a 50 mile ride for that matter.
- lallysingh 15y agoI hear you man. For me, a 4-5 hour ride on the highway on some beautiful country is better than a week's vacation. Some good noise-isolating headphones (I had a loud bike), relaxing music, and some nice breaks at cheap gas stations for a drink here & there --- that's just perfect.
