On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

i don't get the appeal of these bikes...i know styling is subjective, but i personally don't find them all that good looking.

Very nice! I'd prefer the bigger Scout just because of the ABS, but would not turn this down in a hurry. Beautiful machines, and go as good as they look apparently.

I've never really been a cruiser guy, but I really, really like the look of this, also the Fat Boy S and the Sportster 48.

The roads around here are much more conducive to cruisers and sport tourers than sportbikes.

My buddy just bought one.  And has a stable to drool over.

R3, FJR1300, Fat Boy S.

How fast is my 911?  Supras sh*t on on me all the time...in reverse..with blown turbos  :( ...

I've also been watching this bike.  Lurking on the Scout forum has shown that the bike has had a number of  quality problems.
The 2016 Scout now has ABS as an option, but can only be ordered with the red paint job.

I've been leaning towards the Victory Highball lately... but then I still like the Triumph Street Triple R a lot as well.

Nice looking rig. I'm not sure if I could live with ape hangers.

The bars are adjustable  ;)

CA$15,899. That's a lot lower than I was expecting.

I like the look of the Victories. Must be the big jugs.
They seem to fall off the radar when I'm looking.

This one is a smoking deal here in Ottawa, been up for sale for a while... probably due to the paint job.  Not sure if those are applied graphics or painted on, but to re-paint on the tins probably wouldn't be too crazy.

Welp. A person on that would go places. Not good places, but places.  ;D

Actually, I think I'd leave the paint. It kind of works.

It's a tempting one for me... just hard to justify a bike when you have a convertible... doesn't make enough sense.  And the current role I'm in work-wise doesn't really lend itself to commuting in on a bike... which means weekends only  ::)
