    I've owned a Honda, 2 Yamahas and 2 Kawasakis before going to Harleys and demoed every bike before I bought it.

    4 carbs, did you read the specs.
    Electronic fuel injection.

    and for the tranny, Japanese bikes turn higher rpms than Harleys do.

    I have seen people at a bike night wearing Harley shirts that rode in on a some brand of YamaSukiDa's, but I have never seen anybody that rides a Harley wearing a Yamaha shirt!

    I looked at the Royal Star that compares with the Ultra, 4 carbs still
    You want more power or bigger cubes, you should trade your Harley in.

    Just for a thrill would I buy a Japanese bike. I mean the that real mean Suzuzki sport bike would be a rush. I thought the japs went out of the cruiser business?

    I have ridden that bike sans Street Glide Faring at Bike Week
    it's not bad, floorboards were in the Raised flight position so my
    knees were in my chest.

    Lotta power, buddy has a raider it's around 96 HP and 105 TQ I think.
    so they move well..

    It's a Yama-glide...

    IF I were gonna buy Rice
