There are alot of people buying FLH framed bikes and bar hopping them, I dont get it. Its a social status thing to have the big touring bike, but never go further than 30 miles a ride on Saturday.

I've noticed this too.
I also think the newer Touring Bikes actually look a lot better then the old ones. I feel the opposite regarding the '18s.
You guys need to just go buy a Yamaha 600 or something. The sports bike market is even deader than the Cruiser market. I've kept a sports bike around off and on for years. But they are no fun. Half or three quarters of the fun of riding is to experience your surroundings. That's not easy to do with your nuts squashed against the tank and your nose on the bar.
Here's my last sports bike. Went pretty good, put 8500 miles on it.
I love my sport bike. I have more fun riding it than my Harley. Not that I don't have fun on my Harley, I do. But my Harley can't do what my Kawasaki can. I wouldn't ride it 400 -500 miles a day (I did 900 miles in two days once) but it's good for a 200 mile day without getting beat up....and my nuts are always fine. lol
