Bars are too high, don't like the spokes nor the naff Maltese cross intake. Otherwise, it's salvageable.

Quite like the wheels, and the pipes, but not the Maltese cross, and definitely not those bars!

Hate it.

It just smacks of a receding hairline.

The bars look spasticated.

I don't think so.



The bars are the worst bit by a mile though. Hate ape hangers with a passion.

Generally agree with Shaggy.

Everything except the bars looks cool in my opinion. Shocked

The matt black is reservedly cool, as well as those wheels. Nice.

Everyone will probably hate it though. Firstly because it's a Harley and secondly it does stink of a 40-something's weekend toy. Neither of those facts bother me too much but hey-ho. Karma

I just don't get the cruiser thing.

Biking for me is leaning in to corners at speed, leaning so far over you can touch the ground.

It's for those who can't handle a proper bike, that's why they are a big hit in the states.. Wink

I really like it.

Minor criticism - bars are too high.

Otherwise looks ace!

I'm not overly keen on the bars or the cross, but I like the rest of it. I like big shiny air cooled engines, and I like the tank too Thumbs Up

I'd prefer flats on it myself but the apes work OK with the single bates and that front end.

Only thing that would be binned straight off is that intake cover. Hideous, doesn't echo anywhere else on the bike that I can see so it's just shiny tat stuck on the side. Shame, as the rest is not at all bad. I do like the lines on hardtails, simple, clean and classic.
