Quite right, and that's as it should be. They aren't built for that purpose. But I maintain there must be a purpose for which they both are designed, and are quite successful at fulfilling.

Acceleration available from 2000 rpm. Try that on a sports bike.
Quite so. I have a Road King Classic which is v comfortable for longer journeys. I also have a Sportster for tootling around the Devon Lanes. I wouldn't use the first one for the second purpose or vice versa.
I've given up bikes where you have to lie down on the tank because:
1) I don't want to be the fastest thing on the road
2) Large expanses of granulating wounds hurt like buggery and I swore I would avoid them in the future by being more sensible
3) I blame Ducati for the start of the arthritis I have in both thumbs
4) I have short legs and don't look good in racing leathers
5) I am cool enough to ride a Harley and have a pointy beard.
That's in St. Louis, MO. I've been on that stretch of road on a friend's Moto Guzzi. That was more years ago than I care to enumerate.USA. the Fat Boy's on the bike. Well, he's using it as a unicycle. Not a Harley in sight.
I've just gotten a nosebleed trying. You biker types is muy loco.Just imagine what it's like travelling at those speeds.
Outstanding. Nothing more to be said. Move on.It seems there are 2 types of middle-aged bikers - those who like to ride an armchair in the countryside and those who want a bigger penis ...

It's in the countryside. . Just the armchair but is wrong.
The Husky's an armchair compared to my old Maico
The RGV was the most stable and easy to ride fast, meaning that Aprilia must feel the same. I just recall riding one once that it felt a bit wider up top than the RGV and longer nosed? Is it a touch heavier?
Air cooled RDs, Benson and Hedges and Dr Marten boots to ride them...the proper 70s hooligan bike
im very philosophical about these things. sportsbikes conjur up a certain feeling that I find revolting, and counter to what motorcycle riding means/is to me.
