Default WFO or Just Cruising

It seems alot of guys like to ride wide frigg'n open (WFO) everywhere they go, going as fast as the conditions will allow. Others like a little slower pace and just cruise. I like to just cruise, take in the lay of the land and the whole feeling of it.

What is your riding style, WFO or just cruising?

Definitely cruising. I bought a Harley to relax and enjoy the ride. 99.9 percent of my riding is done between 50 and 60 mph. I do enjoy a occasional hard acceleration to blow the soot out of it though. Healthy for a engine to have a wide open throttle " cleaning" every now and then

Depends on what day it is and what mood I'm in.
Your poll doesn't have an either or both option.
I call shenanigans.

I go the speed limit so, I guess I'm cruising on the highway and in town.

Pretty much a Cruiser, but I do like to hear those pipes bark in 2nd every once in awhile

Yeah, there is some crossover into the two catagories, but most guys will gravitate towards one style or the other based on my experience.

Totally depends. If I'm just buzzing around town for no reason, then I'll just cruise. . . Sometimes fast, sometimes slow. If I need to cover 500 miles before the sun goes down and I'm riding on the highway, then I'll often open it up a bit more.

Never in a hurry when I'm on the bike....even if I'm late! I do like to open her up a bit, but for most part I'm a cruiser. Smelling the flowers and enjoying the ride.
