I have 2 cruisers, an 1100 and an 1800. I ride almost every weekend. I live in Southwest Florida. I ride VERY defensivly (?sp). I think there are inherent dangers in off road and on road riding. You just need to understand what they are and ride with that in your head. It gets kinda ugly here during tourest season but I try to stay off the more congested roads. It makes for nicer rides anyway.

Ride safe.
