Nightrods are UBER SWEET. But if you are use to a cruiser you won't like it. Its a mid way point from a sportbike to cruiser... very forward feel but with your feet in front on the forward controls. That would be the hardest part for a sportbike rider to get use to. I know it was for me on the chop

I demo'd one last time I was at the dealer. Really killer machine. Had about 10 miles on the clock when we left the parking lot. I'd buy one for sure.
