After much considering, I don't think I am going to get a monster. Yes, they are really cool bikes but I want to get something that is comfortable to ride with my wife and myself.
Now I am searching for that perfect bike. Triumph comes to mind but I feel that their product line is mirroring Harley D. and that there is no interest in them (why buy a Triumph when you can have a H.D.).
For kicks, I am going to check out a Royal Enfield tomorrow. Why? Because they look damn cool and no one has one. I really like the "classic" looks of bikes and instead of buying a restored one, I can just get this. Yes, I know the quaility isn't the greatest but they sure get looks and riding 2 up should be no problem. The only problem is that I will be in maintenance hell if I buy one.
R.E. was originally British but they sold their production to India (R.E. was having the Indians make most of the parts and decided to sell it to them). Here is a couple of pictures that look cool. Let me know what you think.
I have a feeling you guys will hate it. Oh yeah, they cost $4k.
