I am considering a Thunderbird. I haven't riden one yet and probably won't in the near future. My question is how does it compare with our bike comfort wise. Is the ride smoother at 70 mph. Is the suspension much better.

Don't get me wrong I'm not bad mouthing my America. It's a great bike around the city and a 200 mile radius, but long trips just beat the ****** out of me. I hate showing up at work monday mourning feeling like I've been in a bar fight.
If I go for a T-Bird, I'll keep the America, I love it for what it does.
