They don't make bikes that are stable and comfortable anymore? Just as stable and comfortable but without the outdated looks.
well not that they're not stable... but with shorter wheel bases and lighter weight... they're less stable in wind.

and as far as comfort... sorry... but the new bikes just aren't as comfy as the old... with the more relaxed ergos and thicker seats... when they were street first... track a distant second
