All these are Awesome bikes, choice is good. BTW - the new gold wing just doesn't do it for me & the BMW is not appealing to me. but they are goodbikes

Just goofing around. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Indians aren't for me. Whatever people want to buy and ride.

I, on the other hand used to be a Softail fan. (6 Heritage Classics)
Today I would NOT have a Softail anything because of the Rice look.

We went looking to replace my wife's Heritage in '15. Tried a RK and the SG but couldn't get her to try the RG. The Chief Vintage won out. Her opinion was that it rode smoother, handled better and she wouldn't have to replace forks and shocks. People want to talk to her about her Indian every time we stop- my black Cross Country not so much.

re·al·i·ty the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them.
