Can Harley-Davidson finally woo women?
 
Oh well. I guess the new 500s and 750s are destined to be labeled "chick bikes" now.

It's a fact, Brother. They might as well put pink pin stripe on it.

But it has to stay "Black as a cocktail dress." haha.

And here I thought the 500s and 750s were good bikes for younger, newer riders, as well as wimmenfolk.

I wouldn't mind having one to tool around the neighborhood in. Maybe I can buy one "for" my wife. ;)

I like the looks of those bikes

One of my daughters is considering buying one. She took her MSF class on a 500 and wants the 750 as her first bike.

Sportster & Deluxe guys around the world thank the MOCO. :)

I would think most women would have better taste than to pick one of those ugly things. Looks like someone slapped Harley labels on one of those cheapo imports that they sell at Pep Boys. Not a fan...

There's nothing wrong with "chick bikes", IMO. I think it's a great marketing idea for HD.

Maybe a good female starter bike. My wife is 4' 11 and rides a Deluxe now. Started on a Buell Blast...
