2006 America

Cruising should be chrome, custom and cool.  And cool is something you can't invent.  It's in the genes.

The America is genuine cool.

It's a custom Bonnie powered by a bulletproof 790cc parallel twin - a motor that churns out mile after mile of relaxed, useable power.  The seat's sunk low so you're never going to be balancing on tip toe at traffic lights.

Everything else is so laid back it makes an armchair seem stressed.  There's deep chrome everywhere, wire wheels, slash cut mufflers and highway style riding position.

Oh, and if you like to do your own thing, plenty of factory custom parts too.
