Victory touring bikes have a completely different frame. They are
supposedly comfortable and reasonably powered, but are lacking in
luggage capacity.

Of the three dealers in the hundred mile radius of my house, two have
dropped the brand and one carries no inventory because they are so
difficult to deal with in a business sense. From the couple of people
I know who've owned them, the bikes themselves are reliable and low
maintenance.

One plus for Europeans is that they are metric so you don't have to
buy new tools as you would with a Harley.

That's not a plus. I need an excuse to buy more tools.

"I wanted it" usually works for me - but only if it comes out of my madmoney
account . Not so much with her household account ...
Yesterday I bought two battery drills ... now those I really did need .
