Yeah, Dwight, I get ya. I suppose the Scout can be described as a "mid sized cruizer. Funny thing is, I LIKE the looks of it, but even though it IS a bigger displacement engine bike, the America seems to be physically bigger. I loved the size of my America. But every time I sit on a Scout, it feels too small. I know the aftermarket people are gonna make bags and stuff for it, but I probably won't care for them. For instance, my cousin has a very nice 1200 sportster, but it came with soft bags, windshield and floorboards. It just looks funny to me. The styling screams "sporty", not highway cruiser.
