I was in a few bike shops this weekend, found that some of the 750's have a weight limit (max load) of under 400lbs. Got me to thinking that something must not be right. I see lots of weight on bikes that size on the highway no less.
My passenger and I are on a weight loss trajectory....so, we're going to bust our butts to get off a collective 50 or 60 pounds...then I'll load 'er up. Thanks everyone, this has all been helpful.
