I already had a crotch rocket and a bigger tourer in my stable but I needed a bike just to get around locally as neither one was really suitable.
I had a 750 Bonnie for a few months as a first bike while still a teenager so I decided to look at the new generation twins.
I looked at the Speedmaster and thought it would be great for messing around and short distances.
