The lack of chrome makes it look like the cheap model, kind of like the trucks in the '70's that came with painted bumpers, rubber floor mats, and no radio.

lose the ox blood accents on the seats and it comes across better. It does seem kind of odd after making red so special on Diablo they would use a very similar color for the anniversary models. The gold badging doesn't work for me because the tone is not similar to the wheels which obviously their designers have a hard on for considering how overused those wheels now are.

Again, just paint, seriously Harley just isn't investing in the big twins and no I don't consider putting a fairing on a trike innovation or much investment.

except that those aren't the wheels that actually come on the bike. according to the 'specs page', it comes with the gloss black and chrome tomahawk wheels. why they have that picture, who knows?





the disclaimer, #9 does say that the wheels may vary by country and region. either way, i don't like either of those wheels for a cvo. should be less 'run of the mill'...

If I'm not mistaken that rear wheel is the same size as, and should be interchangeable with, the Fat Bob. If the front wheel was too, I'd swap with you in a heartbeat. I have had much jealousy over the bronze rims for a few years now.

I think 120's are going to be a hit. I'm sure they will look even better in person (Okay, the red?seat panels are head scratching). The tank badge is the best since the 100.

Odd, because I hated the color on my FXDLS, and pulled them after about 1000 miles
