It's what you buy if you think the Royal Enfield's are too fast, too expensive, & too reliable.

There sure are! (I had never heard of them until I Googled 'Jailing' yesterday!) And at least some of their owners seem pretty pleased with 'em - check out the grin on this happy chappy:

And, correct me if I'm wrong, but that thing is shifting under its own power ain't it? In which case, fair play - better the 'bike you can afford than all those you can't!

One thing I cannot grok is why everyone puts gangsta-rap-hip-hop-nu-metal soundtracks on every lame motorcycle video-clip.
Is everyone out there THAT keen on passing a bad-ass image just 'cause they ride a bike? They're failing miserably, by the way.
Is it just me? Am I getting old and grumpy?
Ah... just ignore me. Need to put more miles on the speedy.

Totally agree with you.
What is really obnoxious is when they post a video of something out of the ordinary, like a late 60's Kawasaki 650 twin (the BSA "copy") and THEN put that stupid muzak over top.
One of the worst offeces was on American Thunder TV show about 5+ years ago. they had one of Fuelings W3 Harley engines on. SO they fire it up, as the guy firing the bike says "It makes a really unique sound." Just as the bike catches, American Thunder adds it's generic badass mofo metal soundttrack, drowing out the sound of this 3 cylinder Harley.
