Ready to buy can't decide,Yamaha 650 classic,likes- Air cooled engine
more chrome,has all steel fenders,comes with foot boards and heel toe
shifter.Like the simplicity of basic carburator and choke.Don't like spoked
tire/rims really don't like spokes ! MSRP 5899.00 $ Suzuki M-50,likes- bigger
800cc engine,alloy tire rims,really like.Don't like,all the plastic,fuel injection
could have problems costly to fix.Thin poor quality seat,V-star seems better.
MSRP 6899.00 $ Also the dealers here in Western PA seem to deal a little
more on the Yamaha,M-50 full retail plus don't like-it theres the door.
