Umm... Yes. If we didn't feel that way we obviously wouldn't be chiming in. That bike looks like one of those Honda "choppers" they came out with a couple of years ago. Tons of much better looking scoots around...including mine.

That statement is as sad as listening a fat, ugly chick reassuring herself that she is beautiful on the inside in order to make herself feel better despite the obvious.

The Deuce may very well be the best looking bike in bone stock form that Harley ever put out. If not, it's still one of their best looking bikes ever.

Skeez...everyone has an opinion and can blast away. I like all bikes and appreciate them in their own respect and beauty. I just think it's pretty tacky and narrow minded when someone starts stating that others bikes are ugly that are not....especially just because it is different than theirs. Ugly is pretty harsh. Not your preference fine. I am a springer guy and have one and prefer apes... look at my bikes. I really like the crossbones and yours too.

Everyone has their style going here. Really doesn't matter, just thought I would show some respect and appreciation for a bad *** bike. The Deuce can be done up with the best. As far as looking like something else, to me it absolutely does not look like anything but a Harley Deuce cherried out and done up with Drag bars. Not sure where you got your motorcycle goggles from. Maybe you just started riding.

Anyhow, peace. to eaches own.

Going by the pic of it the CVO Breakout looks a bit like an up to date Deuce, better looking though.

It may or may not look like the honda fury, (NOBODY has ever said that before!) but at least the reflectors are off of it!
