Makes me want a 1200 but the price is hard to swallow.Good looking bike overall with every bell and whistle.

I don't care how much power it has, 534 Lb.s is to much for me on a off road bike. Might be great at Starbucks.

You're right, off road calls for 230 lb or less. Over 500 lb, you don't handle the bike, it handles you.

There is a review on Youtube in which the reviewer mistakenly changes the riding mode (suspension adjustment on the fly) while trying to do something else. I love the looks, and I can see myself on a 1200, no question, but why the heck would I need all of that "stuff"? I can see ride modes, screen adjust, and cruise control. I am not sure why I would need a quick shifter on a 500lb. Adventure Cruiser. We'll see...
