Joke,that's why the word early was in inverted comers, it's the kind of bike the bones is based on.

So true! I mean, the only models that share little to nothing with the xBones is the sport and Dyna line. And though there's a huge market for them, they lack the true soul of what Harley was. So glad the MOCO realizes this part of it's heritage and is willing to keep it around.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about... That was the turning point.
