It is all about the target market.
Some people want a heavy, longer motorcycle with a longer travel throttle, for going on long trips on the mostly straight interstates with more comfort, after they have learned how to ride on a smaller bike.
Some want a lighter, shorter motorcycle with a quicker throttle, better for fast cornering.
Some want a little scooter for around town.
Some will pay extra for made in the US, Italy, or Germany.
