I ride an '07 Suzuki Boulevard C50T. Comfortable and rider friendly. And with the bags and sissy bar removed, it's looks badass rolling down the street!

[@steeveedee8478]

There are more than 2 bike classes, adventure bikes and sports tourers are also popular. Basically people ride what they like and generally don't necesserily care for much of the others. I've never liked riding sports bikes as I don't find them comfortable and I don't want to ride on the edge all the time. I used to enjoy adventure bikes but now I just love large cruisers with comfort and power plus somewhere to stash your stuff. Mine is a 1500cc Honda Valkyrie and sports bike riders regularly slice me up to prove how fast they are but I doubt they will continue riding on from the UK to somewhere like Rome which is one of the places I've ridden to on it. There is no BETTER bike - it depends on what you want to ride and how you like to ride it.

[@phillipnunya6793]

Maxi Scooters are a thing, but that's taboo with motorcycle people for some reason.

[@jasperdomacena6491]

on a market for small displacement bikes? get a Cruiser, the comfort will make up for having no power looking for a good daily bike? get a Cruiser. it's just comfortable, traffic is already a hassel so you want to atleast have a comfortable ride you want more Power than an ordinary cruiser? get a sports cruiser.

[@L10N.]

The yamaha raider is a mix of all, pretty agile for a cruiser, 0-60 in 3.7 secs, 1/4 mile in 11.7 secs and has a million pounds of torque. Comfort is insane also

[@briandavenport8971]

[@jackedwards7420]

Yep, Cruiser is my first choice and Adventure Is my second! I went through a short sport bike phase in my early 20s but only lasted a year thankfully really one of my major regrets in life is that year! And my step uncle raced superbikes at Daytona and as far as I am concerned where they should stay! Sport bikers around hear (West TN) are mainly jerks and a menace to all other vehicles on the road!

[@Roy_Godiksen]

I satt on my dads cruiser. I didn't like the seating position at all. It just feels wrong to have your arms and legs in front of you, like a scooter. No thanks. But yeah, for those who like that kind of stuff, it's probably more comfy.

I havnt long started riding iv got a yamaha sr125 It is a great bike to ride I'm glad I chose a cruiser first

[@leobatista9199]

I love cruisers, but I choose naked sportbikes only because of the riding position, I have lower back injuries, and sitting straight up isn't exactly comfortable for me lower back. I like supporting my stomach on the gas tank and leave my lower back free from all the stress.

[@redhammer92]

Sometimes you just gotta sit back and respect a truly smooth sack.

[@Wonderwoody1]

Theres still nothing better then peeling a dude on a sports bike with pegs scraping and having him look at you like his bike is broken or something. "Kieth Code Bruh" as you sip your latte and pass his Ninja

[@Cupcub71]

Easier to ride? Maybe off the line. But I've watched several squids try to take a 900lb Harley into a fast sweeper only to end up in the weeds. Or worse. Canyon carving on a heavy cruiser requires every ounce of skill a 30 year veteran of the roads can muster. Anticipation, heavy braking and counter-steering pressure that would crush a melon. Squids often don't have the skills.

[@atheist535]

I prefer the naked sport bikes because you get comfortable ergonomics in combination with performance.

I've always been a cruiser rider. Got a C50 after 25 years without a bike. It was intimidating even though the motor was about the same size as my Honda 700 Shadow. The Suzuki looked big as a bus. But I knew I wanted shaft drive and water cooled. Matter of fact the 2019 looks exactly the same as my 2006. Another plus, cruisers don't age, always look great.

[@dlcurtis69]

I got a C50 after almost 50 years without a bike. After I was used to riding again I got a Harley Davidson Heritage Softail. I like them both. The C50 is fun around the neighborhood, it's so easy to ride. I take the Harley to bike night.

[@SmokinZen]

Naked bikes are just as comfortable and you get power and performance. I came many cruisers till I got bored, they do have their place just not in my garage.

[@nicholstop8161]

The only thing I want off a cruiser is the speakers.

[@wethepeople420]

I’ve had every kind of bike. But nothing rides like my Harley Davidson (heritage soft tail) Plus it’s a torque monster. I’m 6’4” and it fits me when most cars and bikes don’t

[@x-man5056]

Being tall is not a reason to buy a Harley. The lower seating position on a Harley is ideal for shorter riders. Tall riders don't buy them because they (the rider) are tall, they buy them because they are cool and they like them. There are dozens of videos on you tube of tall riders complaining that their bike is too short...but none of them are on Harley's. All the Harley guys are pleased as punch. Cruisers are just better...for all sizes.

[@Kostadin_Arolski]

Cruisers sound nice and have the most comfortable ergonomics, but man i hate that look 😅 i chose the middle ground with a naked

[@Studmuf-Rockin]

I want a candy red 1600cc Yamaha Road Star for my first bike, yeah sports bikes are cool but there is nothing like that bulky build and comfort.

[@kaldicuct]

I'm learning that Cruisers vs Sporters are the same type as AK guys vs AR guys in the gun community. End of the day, we are in this and should support each other regardless. Sure, talk a little shit in good fun. Just remember, we family here.

Where does my 2018 Kawasaki Z900RS fit into this world? I ride sitting up like on the old Z1, no fairing or back-killing stance, but a tach that redlines at 10,000 rpms. I just left the V-twin world after 20 years of riding only them, except my my 6 year stint on a Triumph Speedmaster.

[@hydroxychloroquine5078]

The Yezdi Roadster from India looks like a cruiser but the engine is tuned like a sports bike. The gap between cruisers and sports bikes is starting to shorten.

Like my old grandpa used to say, it ain't what you ride, it's how long you spend riding it. Crazy old bastard, but I can respect that opinion.
