I don't think it's anything special, it just doesn't do anything for me at all. I saw one in person and liked it even less then the pictures. JMHO

They hit the mark on this one.Big fat tire up front, solo seat on springs, apes, springer front end, and knockout pin striping. Beautiful bike.

Would make a good around town bike.

Stunning styling. Shows why all the rest are just pretenders.

+1 on great around town/bar hopper bike
But I also almost bought a CVO springer instead of my SERK so I am biased.
Also recently got a springer front end for my shovel resto .....

This will be my next bike. I'll use the RK for long trips and the Boner for around town.

Am I the only one who remebers life befor Jap bikes? We would cut fenders with a hacksaw, get a head light from an old Ford tractor because it was small. We took off all parts that didn't make the bike run, and 16 inch tires were what we had. You never went to a shop to buy a seat, you cut down the seat on the bike and redid it yourself. Paint another story, put it in your oven to bake your paint on. I rember the late 40's 50's 60's you worked with what you had and run the hell out of it until something broke.

It's alright, nice to see more variety coming out of HD lately, but I'd rather have that piece of steak a couple pages forward...

My dad had a Indian bobber. I think it was a 1941. I found out years later that before the WWII called him, he rode a Triumph. His Indian was supposed to be a restoration but he never did get around to it. It had no front fender, a hacked off rear fender, a solo saddle, springer front end, and it was a side valve 74 c.i. engine.

I think this will be a toy bike rather than an everyday scoot. Cute name though.
