Yeah, Americas sure do suck huh? Good thing his tastes "matured" and he tried turning it into a thruxton. It's a shame the poor guy had to start out with such an "awkward motorcycle". Hopefully he can sell it quick and get a real bike like a Sporster.



Well we have at least a few people here who have put standard Bonneville style tanks on their cruisers. Does the same apply to them? Remember, Nick never called it an awkward motorcycle. Don't ascribe the opinions of the author of that article on chopcult to the owner of the bike.

Since when has making changes to your bike to suit your tastes been a bad thing? Careful how you answer.



That's not what I'm saying. In fact I think the bike looks cool. I think the bonnie tank on our bikes looks cool too. I never said customizing in any way is a bad thing. My rant was actually directed towards the author on chopcult, who pretty much bashed the America for a paragraph or two before actually talking about the project itself. I just get sick of the elitist attitude I see so much of in other circles about our bikes. At the end of the day, I have my opinion, and they have theirs, and that's OK. I still love my America, the tarted up, homely, bland, awkward, tubby older sister that she is. I guess my tastes just haven't matured yet.
