V-Rod VRSC
(Vaguely Resembles Something Contemporary)

V-rods are hot bikes, don't get me wrong. But a 600cc R6 is one third the cost and have the displacement and will hand the v-rod its @ss any day.

do people take that 600cc R6 on long trips? I think we're talking about 2 different types of bike here.

Different kind of bike for a different kind of ride. I don't have anything against sport bikes, but I sure don't want to own one. They're too tall, and the riding position is uncomfortable.

This nonsense that one type of bike is better than all the rest is hooey. Some folks are best served by a full on highway barge like an Electra-Glide or a Goldwing. Others need a sport bike. Still others need a laid back cruiser. We don't all ride the same road.
