Kevin Kruger wondered if they built Prestige models with somewhat different geometry . Well, they sure did with the American Masi GCs. My '81 was a sweet ride, one I had from a few years later was a definite Crit model and was twitchy, to me. I think we went through a period when Crit bikes were very much the "In" thing and that's what were built. Not all Prestige models were the same, not all GC models were either, in my experience.
