Say what you will about the Mini...at least I didn't go ga-ga for the gayest bike of 2012!
That's cuz a beach cruiser where you live is one of those Rascal scooters.

When did Ken move to Methford? My tour of southern Oregon in Sept was awesome, but I never saw so many motorized carts in my life.

The new Tiger sure does look like the ticket. Depending on the price it may prove to be the go to bike in this catagory. I hope they have one at the moto show in Long Beach this December. Great input Guys by the way.
Absolutely. The Bavarian Tractor is the best choice for many people.

Philistines, you wouldn't know a good bike if it drove over your foot! the mighty GS PzKw can conquer anything from that really big speedbump at Starbucks to the gravel spot leading into the parking lot at that Pho place on 4th Ave,

Nothing can stand in it's way......
