Looking forward to riding around cottage country once again. It will be my contribution to climate change. Ya that's a good one. Cty Rd 9 from creemore to badjeros is a good short one too.

Puzzleboy Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) I haven't ridden a Spyder, but the fact that it doesn't lean over in corners must be kind of a drag. That, and it's a bit of a dog compared to bikes. Sport bikes are more comfortable than cruisers though. Old sport bikes obviously weren't great, but new gen stuff is very comfortable. Go on a long ride with sport bikes and cruisers, and see who starts bitching first. Lol Done it many times. 3 hours ago, Blackstar said: I've ridden a Spyder. It's not for me yet.

If I was riding 2 up all day long then I wouldn't care so much. I've never been on a cruiser but they don't look comfortable. I like the seating position on my Electra Glide. I'd like to put taller bars on it, just a couple inches or so, and running board took a bit of getting used to but over all its good. 4 minutes ago, ArcticCrusher said: You know Stevie, that does nothing for most of the dudes in yoga.
