We started talking about bikes, and he said he wanted a new bike, but he didn't want a sport bike or a cruiser. He said he wished someone still made a standard bike (obviously, he didn't know about Bonnies, etc.; I owned a 2001 Bonnie).
I removed the cover from my Deluxe, and as soon as he saw it he said, "That's it." He's saving his pennies for a CB1100.
I'm 22. The 2014 standard is perfect for guys like us. We want a bike, but not a sport bike or cruiser....something understated, where you get to enjoy owning a motorcycle without being in everyone's face about it.
