Two different animals. I don’t know much about cruisers but used to be into the ricers pretty heavy. No....it’s just no. An scout will run with a 600 crotch rocket.

Zambroski Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I guess I'd have to see in what world a cruiser will hold up against a sport bike in any type of race. These are bizarre comparisons to me. Am I missing the Isle of Man cruiser classes? Or, aren't those televised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
