Was in the market for a new motorcycle, for the past years none of the same old same old offerings of HD could entice me. Then they came out with the update. Didn't like them at first just looking at the pictures on the website, read all the disparaging comments on here that got more and more expletive. Decided to go have a look for myself and ended up buying one right there and then.
Don't give a flying **** if they call them a softail or not. Those who keep moaning about metric ... park one of the new HDs next to a metric one and find out how wrong you are.
^^^ This. Metric schmetric. Just a bunch of empty bellyaching from people who can't tell you WTF "metric" even means.
I'd never considered one before but the 2018 Low Rider has me thinking that this could be the right bike for me...
Same here. Def want to see one in person. No dealers around here have one yet. That is sweet little ride though. Round rear tire, and more ground clearance than the Breakout, so much more willing to turn in. Only problem: no 114 option. Mystery to me why they wouldn't do that.
Nice looking ride, but that blue/red color option looks like an AMF throwback.

It had to be intentional. I see they are now offering AMF styles helmets etc. so that must be their next marketing thing. It's kind of stupid considering how many people look at the AMF years with disdain.
