They're strange bikes - 1000cc and 250kg, but size and performance is more akin to a 250. I'm no lightweight myself (6ft 17st) but everything seems to work well.The plan was for a stripped down bar hopper, leaving the Glide for longer or two up rides. As she's so small I can also squeeze her in between the back of the Morgan and the house. A big win win situation!

I met a fellow HD rider at breakfast yesterday - he was a very big old 'bro' bloke (had at least 4 inches and 10 stone on me) and he was waxing lyrical about his old ironhead and how he regretted letting it go.
