Default Why You Love Your Train!

Only 1 month into my 08 NightTrain and I'm more convinced I made the best decision.&nbsp\\; How can I feel this way about a $20k bike that is a simple naked classic twin?&nbsp\\; No Italian name or carbon fiber ala Ducati or MV Agusta etc.
&nbsp\\;
Here's why I love my Train in no particular order:
&nbsp\\;
1.&nbsp\\; That timely low seat dip that looks and feels like you're sitting IN rather than ON the bike.&nbsp\\; When riding the bike its as if you're made of iron, sat on it and carved the dip out of the shape of the bike.
&nbsp\\;
2.&nbsp\\; Although I've not done this yet it is pretty clear this bike can pull off&nbsp\\;bagger look with sissy bar et al with no problem.
&nbsp\\;
3.&nbsp\\; Extremely versatile.&nbsp\\; Agressive.&nbsp\\; Makes you feel like a dragster crossed with&nbsp\\;a cruiser crossed with a sportbike.&nbsp\\; You don't feel like an idiot really attacking the corner and pulling out hard.
&nbsp\\;
4.&nbsp\\; That fat 200mm rear tire
&nbsp\\;
5.&nbsp\\; Street cred without being on a 1000lb bagger
&nbsp\\;
6.&nbsp\\; Fits my personality and style perfectly.&nbsp\\; Young with a timelessness&nbsp\\;that belies its age.&nbsp\\; Simple, elegant, understated yet bad and nasty all in one.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
Why do you love your Train?&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;

Because it is a cool bike, it has a look that so many others try to copy

Had a friend looking at my Train one day...his comment was that when anyone mentioned "Harley", the Night Train is the kind of bike that came to his mind...I always thought so, too...that's why this bike is my keeper...in 20 years, I want&nbsp\\;people to say "who's that old fart on that old Night Train?"....[8D]
