First, there are many a Britbike owner who will associate all "Cruisers" with large lumbering Harley-Davidsons, which were always in a manner of speaking the complete antithesis of a lighter-weight and better handling British motorcycle.




That part I am going to disagree with you on. From about the late 20's until the early 50's they were all cruisers. Especially the 1937 Speed Twin.
