Difference between revisions of "Category:Motorcycle types"

These motorcycles mimic the style of American machines from the 1930s to the early 1960s, such as those made by [[Harley-Davidson]], [[Indian|Indian]], [[Excelsior]] and [[Henderson]], even though they have benefited from advances in metallurgy and design. The riding position places the feet forward and the hands up, with the spine erect or leaning back slightly, which many find to be more comfortable for long-distance riding. The riding position of American style Cruisers and Choppers evolved from the saddle and riding position used by Western Cowboys (See [[Western Saddle]]). This position allows greater long distance comfort, with some compromise of control.
