but this guy sounds like he doesn't like his bike at all. we all change our bikes to make it our own. but you start out with a good base before you put on the top coat. you don't get something you don't like. who does that besides this guy
Never know, I bought a tractor I hate. It was a good deal though and I had crap to get done.
Purchased the RK because it was the logical step, rather than put hard bags, windshield, touring seat, etc. on my Fat Boy. Figured I'd jump to the new motor, get a smoother ride, dual discs up front, cruise control, etc. I did test ride several times, and it won because I really didn't care for the Street Glide or Road Glide (fairings don't suit me). But, after it's all said and done, I find myself wanting a lighter bike, once again. Nothing wrong with it at all, other than me being a little light in the *** to maneuver 850 lbs. if it were the same weight as the softails, I'd be perfectly content.
it happens. you want all the amenities but not the weight that goes with it
Bingo, I am also thinking about buying a Heritage Classic with the 114.
I really hope and want you to. Because I'm going to have my 2018 Heritage radar on and seeking them out while I'm riding. And every time I see one parked at a gas station or on a water break your gonna see me pulling in with my '14 and I'm gonna back up right next to ya. We can hang out and talk chit together while I thank the person or brotha that just gave me the "nice ride" comment. I don't think you'll be getting any
Worked half day today, so stopped by Harley on the way home to eyeball the new models. I'm both happy and disappointed to say that the Fat Boy did nothing for me. From the side, it looks alright, and like a Fat Boy. But, from all other angles, it's not blowing my skirt up. The aluminum looking finish on everything was a big detractor, and it really resembles a Victory Hammer from the back quarter view on the exhaust side. Sitting on the bike, the headlight nacelle looks extremely odd, and nothing like any bike I've seen before. Could just be more of the aluminum look.

Who knows, that said, I don't ride for complements or frankly "to be seen". I ride for the high it gives me, especially those perfect moments on the road. Even when the weather is less than perfect. The last thing I ever do is put another mans ride down, to each there own. I buy bikes for the way they feel under me and please my senses.
I still like it... the brush metal finish looks great. I like that metal tank bib over the old leather one... and pretty sure it will look great by sliding a leather strip under it as well...
I will stop by the dealer this weekend to look at them in the metal...
