I know your not going to agree with me, but that's ok. I have seen to many scooters being sold, that means that a demand for a smaller lighter mod of transport is out there, scooter sales out paced motorcycle sales for a few months if I remember right. So now your going to be looking at a LOT of first time riders that are not going to want a 1000 pound motorcycle. I have a friend that rides a 750 Honda, would love to have a R* but its to big for him. If people had to take the MSP and actually learn how to ride, it might be a different story, but there is going to be a huge portion of the populace that want a smaller bike. Life goes on, they just don't know what they are missing..... Impossible to look cool on a scooter. I agree the 950 serves a purpose, but to me it makes the 1100 look obsolete between the 950 and 1300. You don't watch American Chopper, do you? Not anymore, used to but I got bored with it. Same thing every show. Need to get a bike done, the dad gets mad, the one son is flaky and the other son gets it done. Don't know if its changed.

He isn't really into the big bikes, the scooters are his thing. Soooo... he makes a scooter look cool   Logged     \"When I looked at this thread, I was thinking to myself; I sure hope I get to see an image that will burn itself into my brain and spend the rest of my life trying to repress it.
