Seems to beplenty of opinions here on how ugly this Harley is. It is a Harley just like everyone here has , different yet the same. We all make our own statement by what we do to these bikes after we purchase them! There are many avid fans of Harley Davidson on this forum and many that are putting their hard earned cash out to purchase this bike that to them is good looking. I am proud to say I am one of them. Made a deposit the day I saw the ad. I love Harleys in any shape or form because they are Harleys. Flame away, but this is my humble opinion.

Personally I think Yamaha makes nice looking bikes.
Ofcourse they are nice looking bikes... they were designed to LOOK LIKE A HARLEY!

I don't plan on buying a Rocker, but I think we should all reserve judgement until they hit the streets, or more importantly, the aftermarket gets hold of one of these and changes it up. Just look at what you get for the same price as most other softails. The 250 tire alone would cost upwards of $4000.00 to duplicate (without labor) and the 38deg rake neck would cost another few grand. Also, the color matched frame and swingarm mounted fender are very nice touches. I see it as an absolute steal if you use it as a starting point and modify it to your taste. Wait... I think I just talked myself into one...

get rid of the stupid rocker tail fender, throw on some struts, fender, and seat from heartland and you have a great starting point for a custom chopper for thousands less than buying a different softail and putting a 250 wide tire kit on it
