The multi will always be in my heart as one of my favorite bikes ive owned, i just couldnt get comfortable on it to do week long trips. The hyper is a similar bike but not at the same time. Its full out enthusiasm. The stratoliner deluxe is an amazing bike for a cruiser. The motor is just awesome, the gear box is so smooth. The suspension soaks up everything in the road. Hell the stock seats are damn good. The bars are to wide, low, and to far of a reach for me. Those will be changed. Very weird, but all the things i disliked about the harley really give it character compared to the strat. The clunky gearbox, the noisy engine, and the rickety suspension. The strat is a better rider bar none, but the harley had more character and was more thought out from a design stand point. There are things on the strat that just seem an after thought, that could have been done better. If harley could make the engine/gear box , and suspension like the strat or victory bikes, they would have a real winner. Although i still give the yamahas engine/gearbox more points over the victory
