It is only fair to warn you of a few issues regarding about these bikes Jay. Please consider these prior to making the purchase.
First, they are extremely dependable so if you buy one you may not be able to wear it out.
Second, you are almost guaranteed to develop an irresistible urge to enhance/personalize/tinker with it. The heartiest among us have suffered from this affliction.
Lastly, be prepared to discuss the bike with total strangers. For some strange reason people tend to gravitate to these bikes.
If you thing you have the resolve to deal with these known issues then you may be the right kind of person to own an America.
BTW, I have a 2002 America as well.
