Question

Is a cruiser motorcycle and a standard motorcycle the same thing?

Answer 1

A cruiser is best described  as a highway friendly type bike, like a Harley Electra-glide or Honda Gold Wing. In other words they're comfortable for two people to ride on long trips. I guess you could call that a standard bike since that style is very common. Unlike the "crotch-rocket" style racing inspired bikes where you have to lay down over the gas tank to ride them, and a passenger has to hang on for dear life on a tiny portion of the seat. Get the picture ?

Answer 3

NO Generally, cruisers feature the "Laid Back" riding position and often forward controls (Both of which I Hate, but that's just Me). Standards have an upright riding position and standard control placement. A Suzuki Bandit it a standard bike and a Suzuki Boulevard is a cruiser. The Big HD and Gold Wing mentioned earlier are Touring bikes, not cruisers,
