It would appear that Harley's got a parallel twin, water cooled test mule.....

Here's a pic.  It's a HDRumph.  No, it's a Tri-Harley.  Blow the image up around the front of the engine, forks, brakes and footboards.  There's some weirdness going on.

Triumph makes a great bike. Why would they want an almost exact double. If they can make that work, it will be a marketing miracle. Don't need a carbon copy. Steal all the ideas you want........but make them fresh

I find it odd that Triumph is so dead-set on copying Harley (especially as they're so dead-set on copying BMW).  With that said though, Triumph is one of the few brands that has some bona-fide heritage to their name, and I think there's probably a fair number of people who would cross-shop the two.

Still, I think they'd be better off forging their own style.
