Pros: Looks and Sounds *GREAT*!

Pros: Looks Expensive-But Isn't, Reliable, Not Nearly As Likely As A Harley To Get Stolen, Definitely Not A Kiddie Bike
Cons: No 12 Second 1/4 Miles
Summary: The perfect street cruiser for the budget minded consumer? Quite possibly, since this beast of a machine not only looks amazing stock, but it is only going to sink you around $6,000. But, I use the term beast cautiously. Sure, the bike will out-drag 98% ... read more

Pros: Price, styling, comfort
Cons: None yet
Summary: I rode my 72 year old dad's ACE Deluxe and had to have one. I like the low RPM sound and the triple valve per cylinder acceleration. For a 500 pound bike it handles great. The big, fat, tires make the ride smoother and safer. The retro look turns ... read more
