Couldn’t feel safe on it over 40 mph. They look cool , but there uncomfortable and without a front brake, it’s not a good idea to cruise the interstate. I got a full size 1500cc It’s fast, quick and needs back , front and engine brakes if I’m going to haul ass... Putting about town is ok for these machines, but pack up and go 700 miles...? Not this old schooler..

Jimmy Parker the gas tank will take you 30 miles between fill ups. That should have been enough. I dealt with them, but wasn’t willing to hand my life over to them or a religious gang,dealt with them as well. There both desperately looking to fit in with anything that will accept them.

[@shellfishtani7309]

In 80s billions of Japanese young bikers (usually teenagers on their sports bikes like NSR, TZR, etc) died due to illegal street racings. So that in 90s those sports bikes had become less popular, then the 70s style choppers were being popular more than ever. Many of my friends used to have their choppers and some still have. But non of them died for his bike, so I suppose American choppers are much safer than Japanese sports bikes. But I’m not a big fan of choppers, I prefer British cafe racers, and my current bike is Ducati 350 desmo :p

The extended front end was actually an idea and developed by the USA national highway safety council. It was an attempt to move the driver of a motorcycle further back in the event of a collision. This idea did not take into consideration all of the engineering design cost , trial and error that went into each machine..no regard for rake, trail, castor, flex, wheelbase,stability, maneuverability,weight distribution,ect.. which is what always happens when goverment gets involved for our own good...

[@SoyBoySigh]

Right at 0:35 when that 2nd bike attempts a burn-out at the drag-strip, you can see the major flaw in the design. The front brake tries to lock up but doesn't have enough grab, not enough weight over it - but when it does manage to brake it compresses the front end and/or bends the "rigid" fork/headstock/frame assembly, and then the wheel begins to chatter back & forth between these two actions, completely destabilizing the entire front end and steering - This was done at a STAND-STILL - Could you just imagine braking hard into a corner of a half-ass highway PANIC stop?
