I saw the one that HD of Sacramento had at the Easyriders Bike Show.  While it's different, it didn't turn my crank.  I think it has kind of a tractor look with that large gap between the seat and back fender.  But, like anything else, different strokes for different folks.........I'm sure that they'll sell them as well as they do other models.

So far, so good.  It takes a few miles to get used to the 240 rear tire and the longer forks.  This is the lightest of all of the Harleys that I have owned, and it peforms very well.  The ride is a little more rigid than my old Heritage, but feels much more nimble. 

The bars fit me perfect, as I was a little worried about the two piece design. 

The seat is pretty hard, and it contains the "convertible biacth" seat that hides away underneath.  I would like to actually get a seat that would sit a little lower to reduce the gap between the back of the seat and the rear fender.  Probably won't ever use the foldaway seat unless some rich old lady wants a ride. :D

I plan to move the inspection plate, add a set of V&H big radius pipes once they "officially" fit them to the bike  (they are still working on them as we speak per the tech line) and chrome her up a bit (hand controls, new mirrors, cables, etc).  This is the first bone stock Harley I have ever had, as they are still developing most of the accessories. 


Maybe someone will make a seat with a 'skirt' on it to reduce the look of the 'gap' that has to be there for rear fender movement.  :) spyder

Duane I seen one at the Florida Biker Buildoff in Clearwater last weekend, and its not for me, dont like the narrow frt end or the seat. I did see Michelle Smith from American Thunder there, and liked her frt end & seat.  ;D . Helen accused me of stalking her and only wanting to go because she was there, but she was nice enough to take my pic with her.  ;D

Why would you get Michele Smith to take a picture of you and Helen?

John,
Congrats on the new Rocker!!  That's the color that I like too.  I think it looks the best of all the colors they offer.  Can't wait to see one in person. :2vrolijk_21:
