I'll have to check, but I thought I was riding the Vegas; coulda been
the Vegas Jackpot, which would then make a $2000 dif in price that the
salesgu was quoting.

It was the (non-Jackpot) Vegas but with $2K in accessories, paint job,
rims. Thanks, but no thanks.

I test rode the Hammer in Phoenix a few weeks ago. It cornered like a
pig due to, I assume, the wide flat rear tire. Nice to hear that the
other models with the "normal" rear tires are much better.

Yeah, my son had to take corners wide because of that 250 rear tire.
Looks really cool, but he said he couldn't stand cornering. The Vegas
had a 180; same as is on my Honda Aero. It had a skinnier fornt tire;
more like a Sportster.
