The Honda is okay....JUST okay, in my opinion. But THAT opinion, once again, is based on MY opinion(emphasis here on "MY") which I've held since the days of my youth when the chopper-look first came into vouge back in the late '60...that all that empty space around the steering head of this style of bike makes that part of the bike look "spindly" and makes the machine look as NOT a "cohesive whole".
(but I know that there are some folks out there that apparently like that look, aren't there IAN???!!!)

AND, seeing as how somebody also brought up the following idea, I'll give you MY opinion(once again, it's only MY opinion here) about vertical-twin choppers. I've seen very very few, SINCE those late 1960s which I was talkin' about above when I was but a pup, which I've liked. And the reason for THAT, once again, is that a vertical-twin motor isn't big enough in PROFILE(looking at a chopper's sides straight on) to fill all the space in the frame. Once again...too "spindly". And My dictionary describes the word "spindly as: "slender and elongated, especially in a manner which suggests weakness"

(BUT, once again, the above are just MY OPINIONS here, and you're free to disagree with me all you WANT!!!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
