Some good bikes showed up in the thread. Whether you like the "style" or not, a lot can be learned about how to make a Harley fast, ridable, and dependable from people who know.

that 99 is bad as fukk... don't think my girls leg would like that high mount thunder header too much, lol

 

that bike is insane!!!!

 

That FXR is sick, but JESUS that x wedge is hideous.

 

I think it is the prettiest Kawasaki Vulcan engine that I've ever seen.

 

So when you read the write up on the FXR which I think is pretty cool once you 'get past' the X-Wedge (which I do not like either ... as long as I ignore its performance!) ... it says the frame is stretched 2" ... and that it is supposed to be an economical alternative vice starting with a custom frame ... like stretching a frame 2" is not gonna cost megabucks ...???

Also a little confused as it says the swing arm is 2" longer ... is the stretch just the swing arm or is it 4" longer overall ... I'd think it would be both, since it looks to me like the X-Wedge is longer fore-and-aft ....

The bike I was trying to find on the Hot Bike website was a denim black Street Bob owned by Rich Andaya of Oxnard CA ... got black fender struts, shocks, front fork legs, triple trees, rocker boxes, 9-1/2" risers, V-Rod fairing, etc., etc. .... on p.120 of the print mag ....
