What a shame that Harley is putting out such a low quality bike. And wanting Harley big bucks money for it. After seeing all those pictures I wouldn’t even say it’s any competition for the Indian scout .
Unusual fuel tank location - this bladder in front of the rear wheel is a fuel tank. Good for low CoG, but better to keep it safe from the offroad and gravel roads.
Also you can see unpleasant rough black texture of the exhaust.
Right side cover panel is plastic.
I dont know why the **** they went with that fueltank design. Like I get moving it and what not, but its such an ugly *** aesthetic. It looks like a hanging *******.
It's the only thing about that bike that I just... "but why..."
Most everything that all of you are complaining about is in reality, not a problem.
For the money the left engine casing probably didn't need to be rough cast quite so badly. For the money and making it out of plastic the left side could of been closed in better.
it's not a show bike it a production bike
So is my Sportster but HD made a bit more of an effort to try and make it look tidy.

Noticed another eye sore. Striking white sticker in the crack between tank and plastic panel on a right side. Not very important though, but strikes right into eyes, especially on a black bike.
The bike surely looks like a prototype, not refined looking at all. But downsizing from my 2005 Ultra due to getting old and could not bring myself to pulling the trigger on a trike. Wanted another Harley and it was all about the weight and handling. Starting issues were finally solved with the software update back in October 2022.

Hey, nice job on the aftermarket goodies! You've made a Rev Max ST Post up a picture of the other side of your bike when you can. Thanks and happy trails
I got to test one out a couple weeks ago and its a great bike if you give it a chance. Bike is super nimble and that motor is no slouch, easily threw me back into the seat and lost my grip a couple of times. Startup sounds like it's full of marbles but clears out in a quarter of a second, it was brand new so that could be a factor. Didn't care for the exhaust sound at first but it grew on me, aftermarket would fix that quick. The gauge was surprisingly nice with all the info at a glance, hand controls take some getting used to. Looks are very subjective and I agree the left side has much to be desired. Highway riding was decent, I wouldn't take it on an all day ride or anything but it had no qualms with highway speeds and beyond.
Overall, if people would take the chip off their shoulder and not judge a book by its cover, they'd be surprised how much they might like it. I know I was.

Wow, that is a nice windshield. Mind sharing which one is that and details on the rider seat you got there as well. Also, any other mods or accessories you got there. I would love to get that for my nightster.
