|  Hey, newbie here. I got ? on bikes.
I am looking into getting a bike and i like the cruisers myself. I have owned a couple in the past and do know how to ride already. I had my mind set on a Kawasaki drifter 800 pretty much unless i got the 1500 version. In my are the drifters are hard to come by and they want more if i can get one used then i can get loan for. I went to suzuki dealer and was checking out the velousia and i sorta fell in love with the 2004 LC 1500 drifter,just little big (wide that is) but i liked it. It sits lows which i like since i am shorter and like being able to to put feet flat on ground,lol. My arms are shorter too and handlebars felt great and they were closer than the vstar 1100 and velousia i looked at there. The bike seemd very manageable not to heavy in weight. I read on the websight that 2005 c90(same bike/name change) that it changed handlebars to a wider grip,not sure how it will effect me though. I think the dealer is assembling a 2005 blue one so i hope to find out about the handlebar change. Anyone owned any of these bikes? Preferences? Mechanically experiences? I like the classic look of drifter but at same time looks like i should be able to find lc1500 easier and as cheap as used drifter 800 locally and besides that has the fatboy harley look to me. Help appreciated,thanks.
