Ty...the ride is not bad as I expected it to be...yes can feel all the bumps in the road...still drives like a cruiser though...I like the way it looks so I can sacrifice the ride a bit.

You're going to get at least 20 replies saying it needs a drop. Let's count them. LOL!

Oh, nice ride.

Another thing, get some wheels on that Jag.

its the tires. if you want to go with a big boy rim you have to have small tires. its either function > looks or looks > function. I have 30 series tires on my GS but i dont think its too bad. still rides smooth.

It’s called sacrificing the ride for the look, no way around it. The smaller the sidewall the more road noise and feel you will get.
