Advantages: Style, Eye Grabbing

Disadvantages: none

I bought my dragstar 2.5 years ago and use it to commute 15miles to and from work every day. Come rain or shine it gets to from A to B. The engine is as big as it needs to be for the lightweight cruiser that it is. Is has the ablility to have lots of accessories.

It is definately a bike for the cruisers mentality not the lovers of the Plastic Bullets style Racing Bikes. It has Chrome all over so when clean it shines brightly above the rest. This is a personal opinion, I like chrome not plastic. It is a bbae magnet and pulls nvious eyes from all, as you cruise around.
The bike is still powerful enough to leave a Porsche standing at the green light.

Most importantly
In my time in ownership I have had three coming togethers with blind drivers and have been able to get up and ride away with only superficial damage.

Sadly, as my MS gains a stronger hold on my body, I have recently stopped riding it, and willprobably cry when it is finally sold.

Unfortunately I have to agree with huddro, but am truly sorry to hear of your problems.

Sorry to rate your op su but you tell us nothing about the bike really. What size engine does it have how does it ride how heavy etc, may I suggest you read some of the premier opinions to gain an idea of what sort of level of detail you should be looking at when writing an op keep riding and have fun
