Does anyone remember seeing a test of the Roadster in Cycle or Motorcyclist? I've seen several overseas magazine's writeups but they don't seem to cover the same areas that our domestic magazines do.

I'm interested in comments concerning ride and handling as well as performance figures. If anyone knows of a U.S. road test, I'm just going to purchase that back issue from the publisher if it's available. It would be great if it could be scanned and placed here on the Forum but I suspect that would break a lot of copyright laws.

Thanks!

MikeCam: Thanks a bunch! That's great information. I'm still looking for Cycle and Motorcyclist, for their performance charts, but your sites are exactly what I was looking for with regard to comments and riding experience.

I appreciate your help.

I have the copy of "Motorcyclist" dated Feb. 2003 which features the Roadster , is that what you are looking for? Den

Motorcycle Consumer News had a few tests and you can get back issues.

Hope this helps.

Samiam,

I have the MCN, and Motorcyclist reviews, I can dig'em out and copy at home. Send me a PM with your mailing address and I send the copies along to you.

And if we ever meet up at a Rally or Beakster Bash you can buy me a beer! Okay?

Ciao! BJ
