2001 Power Cruisers Reader Feedback

From our 2001 Power Cruisers Shootout:

"We haven't picked a rational winner for a major shootout so far this year. What fun is that? If you just want to read the OEM's marketing hype, draw up a spreadsheet and pick a new bike without any real-world input -- for instance, actually riding and living with the bikes -- well, what are you doing here? We like to keep shootout bikes for a couple months, letting their features and flaws seep into our collective consciousness over time, and it's amazing what one can discern from actually riding a group of motorcycles back-to-back, especially so with a bunch of cruisers, where evaluating is almost purely subjective."

Well, another controversial finish. Go easy on us, we're still chaffing from the drubbing in last shootout's feedback...
