I haven't made the decision yet to buy an R18
Honestly, about two months ago I would have never considered one but something happened
I've owned dozens of motorcycles but never a cruiser and never anything this freakin heavy! (although one of my R1200GS's was about 540, still not 761!)
My biggest concerns include

I haven't made the decision yet to buy an R18
Honestly, about two months ago I would have never considered one but something happened
- Was it seeing them up close in the showroom?
- Is it the obnoxiously cool engine?

My biggest concerns include
- Is the tilt-before-dragging point really low? It seems way too low for what I'm used to.
- Is a machine this heavy really difficult to maneuver when parking, backing in, & so forth?
- Can you get more than 150 miles on one tank of gas?
- Is the seat really as uncomfortable as some say it is?
- My favorite rides involve anywhere from 3 to 4 hours on backroads - is this a good machine for that?
