There is no such thing as a girl's bike when it comes to Harleys... It's a bike no matter who rides it just like every other Harley. The bottom line who gives a F..k what anyone thinks ride what you like.

White Bros. Wide beach bars 39.5". LOVE EM! Didn't want the burly bars. I really like the narrow bar for nostalgic reasons and helps make the bars look wider.

Thanks again for the compliment! Makes me proud and re-enforces my efforts.

I see you dropped your plate under the fender, somethin like mine. I replaced the tail light housing with a clean model from Softbrake. No more plate flange or license plate window. Did you run a light under your fender to illuminate the plate. In my local it is required. Sweeeeet ride!

Yeah, I made a bracket that actually mounts behind the fender support up to the factory light bolts. I am running three super white leds for the tag lighting. The tag frame is the Kuryakn curved plate bracket. It was a challenge making the bracket but it turned out well.

I made a plate to go over the factory holes in the tailight mount and it is imbossed with "Harley Davidson". LOVE the pipes. Could you give me some feedback on their performance, sound, and upkeep?

Yep, it is a girl's bike and here's the proof.

I went over to a friend's house for dinner two weeks ago and rode the bike. I'm 52 and when by buddy's nanny (she's 23) walked outside to leave for the day, she stopped and stared, for a long time.

When I asked what was wrong, she said "nothing, it's just that you have the sexiest bike I've ever seen".

Yep, it's a girl's bike for sure.

Yep, my black 05 Deluxe is most certainly a girls bike! I sure wouldn't want to be the one to tell my Hub that his 06 blue/white Deluxe is a girls bike though he might not like that [:-]

OK, so I started this thread but now I'm wondering...... what is a girls bike? It seemed obvious when this all started, a girls bike is one that girls ride. Now I'm not so sure. Mayebe it's just one girls like. Or perhaps one that girls own. Or maybe one that girls lust after.

More simply, maybe it's one with no bar in the middle?

In any event, the guy I referenced in the beginning of all this was supposed to make a decision and purchase today. Any bets on his choice?
