Perfectly fine you don't like baggers. Why act like a **** and come into the touring section and comment that "baggers suck"? It just comes across very douchey...

I'm a guy that can appreciate a lot of bikes. My wife has a 16 Street Bob and it's a fun little sucker to ride, but some of you Dyna guys act like the Dyna platform is the ultimate riding machine. I'm also the guy that sticks up for Sporty riders when some *** says it's a girls bike. Ride what you like and enjoy life!

OP, that new S is sick! I'd love to have a smaller bike for when I don't feel like riding my bagger.

That's why they make so many different models. It doesn't matter what you ride, only that you ride.

ENJOY

Very nice choice! It will be a lot of fun for sure. Sometimes I would not mind having something a bit lighter than my 900 pound Limited. Be safe and have fun.

Oh its a fun bike to ride to say the least. Everyone owes it to themselves to at least try one. When I threw a leg over it it almost felt like I was on my old sportster; it feels extremely light and balanced for its size. Luckily it looks so dang good and no chrome to have to powder coat like I always do. If only it came with the full fender like the standard lowrider. Oh well have to scavenge the classifieds and ebay. Who knows might come across someone wanting to swap. The side mount plate harley uses kind of cheapens the look of the bike to me.

Nice bike. I'd probably lose my license on that. My ultra definitely changed my riding style and slowed me down. With that being said your engine is screamin to be modified. Checkout the dynosheet from FM.

Thanks and yes I slowed down some on my road glide and will definitely have to remember how fast I can get in trouble on this one. It will probably get some good mods after the warranty is closer to over just in case. It will get a 2 into 1 and good tune before long though to open the bike up like it needs to be.

Not sure why you say dropped back, you will still be on a Harley Davidson Motorcycle.
