Sooooo, there's no such thing as a "roadster" motorcycle, eh?!

Looks to me as if "somebody" was callin' their motorcycles "roadsters" as far back as the 1970s, eh?!



Okay, now that I've made THAT point here, I've got another one to make.....

Look folks, new categories or genres of motorcycles(and cars, but this is about m/cs here) are being "coined" and/or modified with regularity as to their MEANING!!!!

AND, as many of you know, the terms "Cruiser", "Sport-Tourer", "Sportbike", "Adventure-Tourer", and probably a few more that aren't springing to my mind right now, are relatively new categories of motorcycles which DIDN'T even exist just a few decades ago.

And SOOOOOOOO, my MAIN POINT here is that IF enough people will want to call this Ducati Diavel a "Muscle Bike"(a term which I HAVE heard mentioned in the last couple of years to describe certain large displacement "roadsters"), then SO BE IT!!!!!!!!


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)
