well-i've been given permission to purchase another bike by the powers that be(wife :lol: )
if there are any 1600 classic riders,i would like your input
i already know what this bike can do as i've ridden it many times but what i don't know is
maybe all of its weak points. so far to me weak spots are ground clearance,lack of strong hp
occasional clutch issues,and handlebars that are a bit too wide for slow speed jollys
is there anything else that seems to be significant with these bikes?
this has been a long deliberation for me as i have considered the road star and vtx
along with the 1600 but have decided on kawi once again based on how the bike feels
to me and value for dollars spent-the 1600 fits the bill in both cases
so to close the deal i want to see if i've missed anything,i rode all its competitors and
when all things are considered i think this is the bike i want-it will primarily be used
for long trips and open road riding and with fi,cast wheels, great suspension,good brakes,
shaft drive,i think it wins on standard features.
so-help me out guys,wife is leaving it up to yall to talk me out of it :lol:
thanks in advance :wink:
