Hotrod to grand touring
« on: December 22, 2008, 09:55:48 PM »
I see a pattern in the conversations from the posts I read day to day. The perfect touring HD would conceivably have the ability to convert easily for the occasion, hotrod to grand touring with a twist of the lever. No bull or shortcomings limiting usage. HD should offer High end specific options at the time of sale such as luggage, lowers and seating ready to go and totally detachable... with as much attention spent on graphics and custom paint as the rest of the SE!  No searching the parts books or guessing if something will work or not. No special hardware, brackets or adaptors. We like the custom aftermarket small stuff, but plug and play for the big genuine HD options would be well received. Maybe it wouldn't be as much fun? hard to say... What do you think?

The red bike is not stupid.  She's just intellectually ambivalent. Only think she thinks about is going down the road.

Sounds like the red bike :drink: .

Right on. Little more than the twist of a lever but not much to change over. Red bike's got its' share of touring miles but she'll scoot around town just fine. Maybe not THE fastest but plenty quick enough.
