Mr Clifton
Just got it firing!
I just picked up my new Eldorado and rode home 500 miles last Thursday. I'm impressed. I had Harley Davidson's for 15 years my last HD was a new 2005 Electraglide. I wanted a new crusier bike this year. I had just bought a new Moto Guzzi Norge last year. I love my Norge and just returned from a 2000 mile trip to the Grand Canyon. I test rode a new Indian Chieftain thinking this would be my next bike. I had read about the "Bucket-loads" of torque from their 111 engine. While riding it I was thinking "Where is the bucket-load?" After that disappointment I drove up to Santa Rosa and test rode a new Eldorado. I can report I found the bucket-load. You would have to be blind and torque-deaf to not see the difference. I loved my HD and sort of liked the Indian (the suspension was excellent) however the Eldorado is superior in every way. A side note: I don't normally spend this much on motorcycles however I had a health scare and all I can say is, if you can afford it, do it now. You may not be able later.
