Agreed. I see no reason to turn the Low Rider into a Slim.

I like the looks of the Low Rider. The Road King doesn't look too bad but I'd want a taller seat and maybe different bars - minor stuff.

I love how everyone is crying about Harley upgrading the mechanics....why don't we go back to carbs and drum brakes? Man I really miss drum brakes and not being able to stop, the good old days!!

People spend the last three years bitching about how Harley does not have enough innovation then when they change things up they cry about that.

i don't see how in the hell they will sell somne of this crap. now if you want a street glide special you have to settle for a black engine with no chrome at all. the new fatboy is really ugly, along with the new roadking special. i thought we would see more twin cooled bikes this year. i don't know what harley is thinking with some of this crap. the pic's of the new tri-glide with the stupid looking fog lights is really bad. i wouldn't buy any of the new ****. harley dropped the ball this year.

when i talk about harleys innovation that means how about some decent wheel bearings and better bearings in the trans too ! over all better quality control would be nice for what these bikes cost. the new lineup looks like crap. i don't see how they will sell any fatboys looking like that.

3.5 and 3.6 gallon fuel tanks on bikes with 107 and 114 engines is why. They will have **** for range and I wouldn't spend that much on a bar hopper.

It is ironic that on some of the bike forums that are generally anti-Harley there are a lot of folks surprised and interested in bikes that they never thought they would be. Yet on the Harley forum the pitch forks are coming out!

It happens at every major change in the bikes. In another year or two we will all be talking about how much better the handling and comfort is on these bikes.
