I have to agree. I recently moved from an Ultra Classic to a Softail Custom. I've received more compliments on the Softail in a month than I received in the 5 years I owned the bagger.

I get a lot of "Thumbs Up/Nice Bike" comments from a the general public when riding my Softail FatBoy, but it seems like more of what I would call Harley Guys pay attention and ask more questions about my Dyna WideGlide....

Bottom line, both are very nice bikes.

Me.
Actually when I saw my Street Bob at the dealer that is what I thought, it looked like how I wanted the Sporty I was trading in to look like but on steroids, so I bought it.

It costs about a grand more to make a hatchback that will sell for a grand less than a sedan. Ah, the magic of marketing, promotion, and perception. Ride what you like.
