Folks I need some feed back.
I've come to the conclusion that I'm not adventure riding (R1200GS) and I'd like a more comfortable ride (read: low seat height). I'm looking for over 1000cc displacement, low COG, gobs of torque and HD comes to mind.
My question is how reliable are the newer HDs? I'm specifically looking at the street/road glide.
Hater gonna hate and all that. But really... I'm looking at 500+ miles a week... Can I do this on a HD without breaking the maintenance bank?
Edit: Also, I ride year round...rain or shine.
Yes...I've got a SUMOed Dr650 for fun rides... but I need a new commuter.
What say the genises...genuises... smrt guys on barf?
Oh, and I don't want this to turn into a "what's the best commuter?" thread.
