Much cheaper than say, the equivalent Triumph.
I wonder how many are bought:
A. As a second bike.
B. By those “I go out on Sunday for an hour, to feel alive” merchants, who have discovered that you don’t need huge panniers and to go to Hilltop to do the same thing.
C. By those for whom insurance and running costs are becoming a joke.
D. By those who have swallowed the whole retro ‘Cruiser cool’ image but don’t want to (or can’t) spank thousands on a Harley or similar.
E. By those for whom the effort of lifting their motorbike onto and off its centre stand (or even up off its side stand) was all a bit too much.
F. By those, short of leg, who (despite their aspirations) have finally accepted that buying a bike that was too tall for them, was not the greatest idea they have had this year.
