Congratulations! I'd add a cruiser back to my collection if room weren't an issue. Yeah, I liked the heel-toe shifter on my VTX too!
Definitely a different riding experience than a CB.

Yes, it has a heel toe shifter. The Kawi Nomad 1500 I used to have also had one, and that one was easier to use. Both pegs are pretty high on the Yami, but I'm gonna give it some time. Had a short ride this morning, but it's gonna be another triple digit day, and all next week, too.

Congratulations on the new wheels, enjoy. It is interesting to see models not on sale here. It would be unusual for any of the Japanese Manufacturers to sell large capacity "cruiser bikes" in Ireland (or most of Europe I guess) as we just don't have those big roads. Harleys and Indians yes but terribly underutilsed here.
