just wondering what your opinions are on these two bikes? i personally think the crossbones is a much better looking bike, i'm even thinking of trading my 06 springer in for one.
You forgot neither. I vote neither.

X-BONES 110% Black only way to go gloss or satin. I can live with the rear fender. But a fender like the nightster has would look better I think.

Don't forget to tell them that you paid $17,000 for your BONER.

I have always been a fan of the Springer front end,

I would love to tell people I have a huge "Boner",

I vote for the CrossBones. Great looking Machine. For those that would change the rear fender or the bars. Isn't that what we all do anyway, customizing to fit our individual tastes. I wouldn't think that any rider, male or female that hasn't changed something on their ride......Ride Safe and Often....BearC.Paw......

They both are as ugly as sin, HD really missed the mark with both of these. Hate to say it but the Nightster is way closer to the mark of a bobber style then the crossbones. A dovetail on a bobber? wtf. And the rocker, LMAO nuff said.
