I had coffee with my dealers buyer who is a friend - I was directly told no more Deluxe, Breakout and 750a. Everything else is holding. This was Saturday past

Agreed, my buddy had one like that except gloss black and it was awesome looking right from the get go. Looks way better than the new one, honestly I think its that smaller tank that ruins it for me. I like the small tank on the sportsters but the big twins don't look right with it. Same goes for the breakout, great looking bike pre-18, that small tank kills it for me. It just doesn't even look like its the right shape for the bike

Is it just me, or does the new Softail Standard look just like a Honda Vlx 600??

In this context, bob is a verb, not a noun.

I was going to ask for a definition of 'fat girl' but then I thought that I better not because things could go south real quick. So I won't ask.
