    New Yamaha Cruiser.......

    Did anyone see the NEW Yamaha that was shown on 2 wheeled Tuesday on the Speed channel a few weeks ago? It is a brand new model set to come out this fall I believe..... It was said to have all the bells and whistles we riders want on our cruisers...and a fulline of add ons

    I for one have fallen in love with it ....

    That'd be the new Roadliner and Stratoliner models. Great lookin' bikes ... retro-styled V-twins imaging the streamliner era. I missed that particular show on 2-Wheel Tuesday, but if you want a good preview, check out Art Friedman's writeup of Motorcycle Cruiser mag. I've been reading them for a few years and they are a class act IMHO. Here's the link.

        Hmm. They're nice, but I'd have to say those new Midnights have way too much chrome.

          What you say?

          Is that possible....too much chrome???? Matter of taste I guess. The more the merrier for me.

              I agree on the chrome. I do like the black chrome pipes that were on the Midnight Specials. Also like the gold trim. I looked long and hard at a Roadstar midnight Warrior last spring but decided I liked what had; a very nice bike and no payment.
