What's in a name?
Who is the numbnuts that has been coming up with these Harley names for the last few decades? I grew up with bold, manly names like Electra Glide, Super Glide and Low Rider. The last really good name they came up with was "Heritage Classic."
Now what do they name them? Fat Boy, V-Rod, Slim, Deuce, Night Rod, Breakout and Forty-Eight. WTF. I don't even know what "Forty-Eight" is supposed to mean. It doesn't look like a 1948. It looks like a Sportster. Whoever gets paid to come up with these names should be fired. Man-up MoCo. These names are wayghey. I'm just sayin'. :p |
What kind of 4 wheeled vehicle do you have?

Yeah I had a hard time calling mine a street bob for a while-when someone asked I just said Dyna-You make a good point.... Hey buddy grab my helmet over there, will ya? It's the one for my street bob. Yeah thats it-the one that looks like the cops on the village people.
Crossbones? Marketed toward the guys that dress up in pirate costumes on weekends. How about Switchback? jeez! All nice bikes, IMO-don't get me wrong. But I agree with Hey Man. |

I personally don't like the name Electra Glide, so I refer to as Eglide. I believe the Street Bob is in reference to a bobber type. I don't see anything wrong with the names personally.

Some of them sound like sex toys.
