The time has come. Done with the sport bike and starting to look at cruisers.

I'm trying to stay away from domestic bikes for the price. I'm liking the look of the Yamaha Stryker. Anyone got some feedback or feedback on similar bikes?
 
Get a used harley. They're pretty cheap right now. I have a road king but if I bought a new one I'd get a street glide. I would never buy foreign. I'd literally get kicked out of the club.
 
My cheap ass would love a Harley but my wallet doesn't want to dig that deep.

How cheap you talking? I know you can get a used sportster 1200 for under $4k. I've seen some done up really nice. No 883's allowed unless you're a female lol.
 
I was going to trade my rk for an ultra. Took a test ride with the old lady even, but didn't like the way it handled.
My road king is long paid for so I figured if it ain't broke don't replace it.
 
Here's my baby. Had 9 miles on her when I bought her in 2006. About $8,000.00 in accessories.

Here's my other ride. I've had this one for 34 years. Still rides good and loads of fun. We don't ride as often as we used to but when we do, buckle up! 63 years old here. I love her to death. We've been through some stuff together that people wouldnt believe if I told them. From rock bands to outlaws and everything in between. She's been right there with me in spite of what I did.

Nice rides buf :)

I do like the way my ultra handles...mostly...but learned real quick to keep my hand off the front break, especially with the handle bars turned even a little bit and going slow. :)
 
I loved my kawi kx 450 f's. Had 3 of them. Had an rmz 450 too. I liked that as well. Just a few of many.
 
Mmmmm tough call

I want to stay around 10k. I've really expanded my look and liking the v rod. I should go to one of those Harley test rides
 
The v rod is very expensive to maintain. Talk to a mechanic about it. You should be able to get like a 2006-2008 touring model, or soft tail model for $8-10,000 all day long.
 
FCK that's disappointing man. I'm guessing it would be he same for a night rod

I can't do a sportster. Lady bike

I don't know about a vrod but if you test ride a hog, you're hooked lol
 
The one in the pic is a '07 street bob. I have a '07 street glide now you can buy for 12,000 hahaha

If you're around 10k you could get something pretty nice in that range bro. When you said cheap, 10 grand does not come to mind lol.

Oh buddy he cost of bikes up here aren't cheap. Most street glides within a few years are still going over 25
