re: 1000cc's please
Suzuki!
Don't change a thing!
You guys and gals want a grand of cc's, get a goldwing. The 650 is for those of us that had 1000cc's or bigger and had to play the shifting game.
Now we have the nirvana of automatic, lots of go and comfort.
We don,t need to screw up a good thing. Remember the 64 Mustang and how it got so big and overbuilt thru the years, it ended up getting discontinued. Ditto the T-Bird.
Leave it's size alone, but make simple improvements like analog instruments, maybe larger tires, larger windscreen.
By the way, the present windsreen problems are the result of this being a Japenese product. They are much smaller people on average and this bike was designed for that market. Clearview and Givi are repairing the tall peoples problem in this hemisphere.
