It's kind of growing on me. I've always hated the fugly stepchild of the touring class...but the Marvin version is...different. Would love to see one in that Radioactive green color they are producing in 2015.

I'll test drive one and see if I like it better than its predecessor as far as handling goes...did not like the 2013.

If I like it, I may find myself buying a fast black one in 2017 and having it custom painted in Psychadelic Purple (I don't think they ever made the road glide in psychadelic purple..)

Radiators I'm thinking, top picture sure looks like a twin cooled water pump down low.

I believe that would be the oil cooler. And reports have stated that the 2015 RG will not be twin-cooled so tifwiw.

But maybe that's where they plan on putting them in the future? Though a bit small to be effective, I would think

I'll bite.

Where, then, would the hot air exit?

I can tell you, at 90mph, if I put my leg too close to the air "exit" on the lowers of my 14 FLHTK, it gets hot quick...

I wouldn't want that blowing up in my face.
