Does anyone else think that certain 2018 Softails look like metric cruisers?

All of the metrics that posters suggested were clones of H-D. It is not possible for a clone of a clone as it is only following its original designs.

There it is except for the Fat Bob thing the Street Blob roolz ha ha.

Some of them I like a lot, some of them less so. Exactly the same as my feelings for the previous Dyna and Softail lines.

One thing is for certain, none of them look like Jap bikes.

The New SPORT GLIDE is one that I do like ... don't know about the "Mini Bat Wing" ... that remains to be seen ... maybe a Wind Vest ... or such.

What is the word for a "Baby Bat" ... ?!?!? LOL

OK - GOOGLE says they're called Bat Pups" Hmmmmm
