I haven't checked instagram yet, but it seems to be holding its own on Twitter.

 

When press shots and videos of this bike are on race tracks, they're advertising it as a performance bike. Everybody here knows that if it has the HD logo on it, there's something faster, been like that for decades. The MoCo is pushing this to those with speed in mind, yet slapping cruising style foot controls. Boggles the mind.

 

 

 

Last year it was the Fat Bob looks like a v-max now its the fxdr. Yeah they booth have 2 wheels.

 

This bike doesn't offend me - I actually think it's cool looking, but it does confuse the hell out of me. I'm curious to learn what the "official" target market is for this thing. As I said in another thread, rich, strong-legged teenagers with an aversion to turning are probably a pretty niche market.

 

Not my style but it's kind of cool looking. My son in his late 20s thinks its awesome. But the price is scaring him away.

 

 

I once heard it called 'seek and destroy'... lol
all that to have a bike 40 pounds lighter than a fat boy.
Or chromoly to save a bit of weight. You can use thinner tubes and retain the same strength. Aluminum frames usually need bigger tubes, or more of them which might have screwed with fitting everything. maybe some carbon fiber bits to drop weight would have been nice. I saw the rake too and scratched my head.

 

34d rake and 68.4" wheelbase?!?!

heck, that's a 2" longer wheelbase than the breakout with the same rake. If this thing had the rake and wheelbase of a street bob, then we could maybe talk. Inverted front forks are nice. But it sill needs to be about 4-5K lower in price.
