I've still got my 1963 model skateboard. I also had a Honda 50 way back then.

I like the Rocker C, don't like the crossbones and have a 12 yr old boy who is gnarley on his skateboard.

Boy I'm really gonna screw up the bell curve on this one. I'm pushing 62 and I really like the new Cross Bones. If I had an abundance of money I would add it to my stable. With that said I think I will just enjoy my Street Glide for a few more years. Of course I thought that my 1999 Electra Glide Classic was going to be my last bike also, ain't life fun.

I'm 31 and I think the Fat Bob and Cross Bones are bad ***. I'm glad to seethe MoCowake up and realize they were missing a huge market (and potentially jeopardizing their future) by not making bikes that appealed to people my age.

As for the Rocker... I'll pass. The MoCo is about 5 years late with that style of bike.

You dissed the CB then said Anibisses bike has a lot of classic stylings... the CB has a lot of the same features as Anubisses bike... so which is it?? If you dont see a lot of classic in the CB your eyes are shut, whether you like the CB or not you cannot deny the classicin it...

BTW I dont like the fatbob or the rocker and Anubiss, you already know I like your scoot.
ORIGINAL: Sandhog

Anubisss,you have a skateboard and a Harley that is paid for.
You also ,regardless of your age,have a classic taste in motorcycles.If the pic in your post IS your bike,you have great sence of style harboring to the lore of the Harley.You cant go into a showroom and buy a bike that looks like yours.
Ive never been a big fan of the softail line due to the fact that it hides the shocks.If you want the hardtail look,well buy a hardtail.My 46 year old back wont handle it anymore,due to an injury at work,so now I run a 84 FXRS for fun and an 06 FXDWGI for comfort.
MahGawd the boys at the design office need to get back to the basics before they have to lay off the folks in York again.
You wanna know what the folks BUYING your product want....JEZZEE LOOK IN THIS FORUM!!!!
I have seen hundrds of pictures on this site of guys who have took the design into thier own hands and built some of the greatest looking cycles in the world.This is the bread and butter of the Harley culture.
If you see what guys have done with the cheapest hog available,the street bob and made absolutely beautiful works of art,and they are ridable on a daily basis.
Those guys need to look around this site and see what your fans want.

iam 30 and old school is in man look around, nobody wants trailer queens "rocker" just kidding! i have always been a crotch rocket guy, i was ready for a change so i bought a lowrider, cause it was affordable and i can make it look badass. to each his own, all iam saying is when i think of rocker i think yuppie, Rub, weekend warrior, when i see that cross bones i see alot of potential for a really sweet scoot, and it looks like a bikers bike!! flame on yall i can take it lol!!
Eggs act ly! It is a bike that the so-called "younger generation" can customize and put their own personnality into.

Kinda like when kids used to build lowriders...they weren't about speed either.
