What a crock.
First off the Yamaha is nothing but a plastic chrome version of the real deal (Harley). I can't imagine anyone of these testes, rather testers, forking over for a clone when they can buy the Road King and forgo feeling like a weiner everytime they take it out for a ride. Nobody buys a plastic chrome wannabe ride like the Yamaha without spending the rest of their days justifying their purchase to everyone within earshot. The truth. I don't know any cops or fireman lusting after foreign bikes, no they save for the Harley. I go into the jap bike shops and always cringe when I see how they try to copy Harley. The Yamaha is the best looking of the bunch because it is the easiest to mistake for a Harley. Seeing how that is the case, then the only reason to buy one is because you can't forsee the crapola you will endlessly endure until you unload the thing on some other unwitting sap for half of what you paid for it. Oh, by the way, after you make that mistake, make sure you also purchase a full coverage helmet with a heavily tinted face shield. No one will recognize you that way. Calling it as I see it.
