Are there many Speedmasters and Americas around your way?, I`m just wondering how they are received in a mainly Sportsbike and UJM part of the world. Obviously the Harley owners will have an opinion as well around there, how do they react to your bike?

The dealer (two wheels in Edinburgh) tell's me he's selling loads, though I have yet to see one on the road....Everytime I'm in the shop they have different ones so I guess they are going out the door right enough.

I've got a sprint RS as well and ride with a couple of different sets of guys.....The main couple of guys i go out with are on Bandit 12's and cb1300's now so the speedmaster can just about keep up with them in all but the tightest B roads. I'm hoping the bit extra from the tbike pipes will give me that extra to overtake with and keep them in sight!

The sportsbike guys tend to come over for a chat because its a bike thats unusual over here and they want to know what it is etc.
I can see more guys switching to cruisers/roadsters just to keep their driving license's they way the police are cracking down at the moment....its hard to keep to game over speeds on the speedmaster!

hmmm funny line to follow
