I'd like to see the Night Train brought back with a 180 or 200 rear and chopped fender, street bob or nightster style tail lights/turn signals, for a clean, beefy look. And maybe a 21" x 3.5" front wheel and 103 motor.

Wow.....gotta love thread resurrection.

As for the bones. I'm glad they killed it. Makes mine more rare. I wouldn't own a Harley that wasn't a springer.

I fell in love with the looks right away. Love the fenders...love the seat...the whole package. It's one of the few Harleys that had any character, still is. The line-up has gone back to boring since they killed it.

I loved everything about the bones except for the rear fender, If I own one, that will be the first thing to go in the trash.

Yup, rear fender in the bin along with the apes would have been done first thing if I'd bought one, which I had planned to this year - but, that plan was shot down when the buggers dropped it because of the springer front/ABS incompatibility

The Slim is an almost as good substitute
