There are no sources that call it a "roadster" and roadster is not a recognized type of motorcycle. Linking to the article Roadster is no help at all; that's a type of car. Changing Roadster to say whatever you want it to say it not ok either. Please cite a source. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 22:32, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
Which means nothing as far as I'm concerned. Streetfighting cruiser? Is that the same as a power cruiser like the Yamaha V-Max? Is the Ducati Diavel a "streetfighting cruiser" too? I think this is one of those cases where the marketing department is just throwing words around with no regard to what they mean; it is babble that just sounds cool to somebody's ear.
Can Am calls the Spyder 3 wheeler a "roadster" too, and it has no characteristics in common with the Triupmh Rocket III, nor the MZ Skorpion, as far as I can tell. Although it does kind of remind you of a roadster car, so maybe that makes sense. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 23:11, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
Roadster is a name applied by a manufacturer to convey an image. It is not a type of bike. Simple. -- Biker Biker ( talk) 06:33, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
