Julie is an American though, we usually do go bigger than the fellows across the pond as they they say.



I didn't mean to imply in Julie's case that her Speedy was too much bike for her, Chad.

In fact, as you implied, sometimes a motorcycle can be too small for the American market, as sometimes having more power available to a rider makes them less of a target by cagers on American roads, and can actually help the rider when an evasive maneuver is required out there.

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)
