This bike needs a 21" front wheel, throw the front fender in the ditch, lower the seat height, redesign that rear fender, too. It sits way too high up over the rear tire.H-D is trying to build what backyard builders have been doing since the 40's. Less is more, fella's. I bet it rides very good, though, and I am sure it doesn't leak oil like my old '73 Tiger does, either. Thats a plus! lol

Harley needs to get it's head out of its ass and keep it simple. The back fender should be lower without the flip in the back, the seat sits way to high, the front fender looks stupid, and rake is wrong on the fron end. It's a poor day for harley. =(

What an awesome machine, I bought my Sportster 1200 Custom like a week before they released this in the UK :-(

I had to chuckle at the 'throwback air cleaner cover'. Looks strangely like an evo air cleaner painted black. Cool bike, though.

I just bought this bike last week and let me tell you, this is one sweet ride. Everyone told me that HDs are rough riding bikes. NOTHING could be further from the truth!!! This bike is a cream puff!! For the last 5 years, I ridden a BMW R1200C and loved it. I kept it when I bought my X-Bones. But after logging almost 500 miles in about 5 days, I'm seriously thinking about selling my BMW. I never thought I'd say that but the X-Bones is such a great bike! I love it!! You HAVE to try this bike!
