I love my Sporty, but do know for a fact the bigger bikes are definately much easier to ride. I have had a dyna and heritage softail springer and those bikes were alot easier to balance and handle sooooo much better. When on a sportster it is a question of -- "are you riding the sportster or is it riding you?" Not for the long journeys down the road, but sooo much fun! I call my past bikes "the big girl bikes" lol

I, for one, happen to like having an Electric Leg (electric start).
So ahead and break a sweat trying to start a stone cold shovel. give her just a little too much gas, and you might as well go back inside for 30 minutes and have a cup of coffee and let the cylinders get washed down. No thanks. I'll start mine up, let the cylinders get warm and ride off chuckling.
Besdies, not too many guys could kick over anything over 100 cubic inches, unless it has compression releases, and they weight over 200 Lbs.

Most of the women on this forum have "girl" or "chick" or some feminine noun attached to their screen name so that's just assinine.
