42/16 on a cruiser = 63" gearing  :shocked:  good luck getting out of the gate  :LolLolLolLol:

Not bad for cruising though :daumenhoch:

My Skyway is purely a cruising machine.  The geometry does not fill as dialled in as my S&M or GT so I doubt very much it will see any track action.

Tidelander:
Took the morning off to go a couple of times around a local track..... un-f-believable! Just awesome. A couple of things:
1) OK, OK bars back are much better / more control - I hear ya
2) 24 x 1.75 tyres on the front are just too damn skinny for this size bike IMO - fine for the rear tyre but it needs a bit more stability up front. Swapping out

Otherwise it plain just rocks  :daumenhoch:

Devilock:
Cool...wouldn't mind a go myself!
