Something interesting I've noticed recently ........................
A lot of people say the 500, or the 750, are great "starter bikes" or a good bike for a "female", or person of "smaller stature"
Well ........... I've had a few bikes over the years and still own a 2010 Boulevard C50T cruiser. I'm also in my early 60's, and retired. It seems that I'm seeing a lot of "male" owners, and quite a few "retired" owners. In fact it seems like more of these 2 combined, than there are female owners.
I'm not complaining, or bashing female owners. It's a great bike, and I'm loving mine!
Originally, when I acquired my 750, I got it thru a charity ride I participate in, and won it at the nights banquet. My initial thoughts were: 1) The Street 750 is too small for my stature ........... I'm 5'10", about 225, stocky with 30" inseam, and 2) I'll sell the bike.
The more I ride this bike, the more I love it! It's quick, agile, great fuel economy, stable on the highways at a constant 120 km/hr+ speeds ............... I'm thinking I may just keep it!
I was just surprised at all the "retired male riders"!
I guess my expectations were to see more younger, 1st time female owners. Boy, was I wrong!
RIDE SAFE!
