I didn't like the bike at first, but after I got my Night Train (first bike) I started hanging around the softail section.

The bike has really grown on me after seeing all the x-bones the guys have on here. I'm a convert!

 

All a matter of opinion... and how you plan on riding

 

I agree. If you after the look of that era it is well done. It is not for everyone but each of the Harley models commands their own beauty. I guess we can be thankful that Harley builds many bikes to appeal to the diversity of its riders. Too bad Chevy didn't build the 57 Chevy anymore, but if they did there would be many standing inline to get one. It is nice that Harley makes the Bones, I appreciate it for what it is, but wouldn't buy one for myself.

 

Greetings,

I don't care for it myself, but that's ok. Most people don't like my bike!

 

I actually love this bike, to each his own, I must be a throw back, did two 1000+ mile trips last year. The seat us actually pretty comfortable. It's not for everyone but don't be a hater. Personally I don't like the Rocker at all but some love it.

 

The Cross Bones allows you go a hundred different directions with it in regards to customizing. There are a few things I think they could have done differently from the factory, but of course H-D still wants you to visit the parts counter.

I am biased as I own one, but pulling up on a 'Bones is almost always a conversation starter. Or it could just be my wholesome mid-western personality, I dunno...

Different things appeal to different people. I'm glad everybody doesn't have one, or wouldn't feel nearly as special

 

It would look a lot better to me built as a Dyna with a Street Bob rear fender.

 

My wife absolutely loves hers.

 

One of the guys on here has one painted OD green with a Fat Bob fender. It's my fav.

Techno - Look out! The x-bones army has made it to the thread! haha

 

The Bonez is a springer and you can't go wrong with that. A few tweaks and its 100 different things. I didn't care for is stock, but I wasn't interested in keeping is stock anyway.

Love that springer front end!

*ya I would have liked to see a FX too... bring back the bad boy!!!
