RE: Rocker Pictures
Bottom line... One hell of a goofy bike... Two-up look is ridiculous. Not made for rally duty (how do you mount saddlebags/sissy bar). Fun for a bar-hopper -- or for Sturgis trailer weenies... other than that, well, you know where I stand... HD needs to keep it real... don't worry about the OCC or Victory crowd - trust me, everyone experiences the flight to quality sometime - there's no need for HD to stoop to their level!

it looks like your going to have to get in line, if you have notput $ down now at a decent price ur best bet is to wait awhile, some of the dealerships are asking crazy amounts for them now, some $2k over msrp, i have even seen some posts here saying that there are dealerships asking $4k over msrp. good luck. stay alert and ready over there

Who needs saddlebags & sissy bars??? How about anyone who is serious about putting real miles on their bike. This bike was made for the trailer trash crowd (those who trailer their bikes to rallys) & guys who put less than 2K miles/year on their bike. Also, be honest... there's no way the 'trick seat' is comfortable! For me, I won't buy a bike that I can't throw a honey on the back (with all her crap) & hit a rally a couple of hundred miles away; and no chick I've ever met will feel comfortable on the back of a bike that doesn't have a backstop. it's just doesn't offer enough utility for me to be interested.

Sounds good. You made up your mind for what works for you, so why bash the poeple who've made up their mind a little differantly? To me one of the main aspects of motorcycling is freedom. One of those freedoms is choosing a bike that works for the rider, if this is a style and type of bike that works for an individule so be it. To each his own. You've said you dont like it and wont buy it, ok that's fine. There's no reason to try and rain on the parade of people who do like it and want one. You want to put a "honey" on the back of your bike, cool man. Some of us like to go it alone. You want to be able to strap your gear down, that's cool too. Some of us can do just fine with a back pack. This type and style of bike will apeal mostly to a minimalist. A bare bones bike for bare bones people.
