Just my thoughts. But heck I'll ride any bike as far as that goes, but if I'm gonna be paying for it.........I'll ride with wings..........
As I mentioned, I find it strange that they have an entry level tourer/ bagger (VStar 1300 Deluxe) with a liquid cooled Vtwin, but they opted to have this one be air cooled, despite the price being double. Apparently, their market research indicates that American/North American buyers at this level really want the traditional air cooled twin.
