how about we design a new frame instead of a new paint job? Its a softail frame with some different parts tossed on it. Boring.

Ok, so a Softail slim is pretty much a 2005 Softail. Ya know, before the fat tire fad came along. (Personally I think anything fatter than a 200 looks like a cartoon and actually handles worse) Calling it a Softail slim is kinda like calling an iPhone an iPad mini.

Agreed. HD is pretty much like Pizza Hut any more. They change the name and the shape and it's just the same pizza in the end.

I gota go with Dickey on this. The flat black primer look just doesn't work for me. Vivid Black, OK . . . but not sure what's with the motocross handlebars and the rear tire needs a bit more width to it. Doesn't need to imitate Jesse James but geez, Slim is one thing but Emaciated is another, it looks like they should call it the "Anorexic" the way it looks now.
