That is a nice looking ride, it also has a lot of add-ons too. The ride is a little harsh as it looks like it has been lowered. Has inverted forks too, compair the two and see which you like better.

Softails are for cruising around looking and feeling good about yer'self....Better know as Styling and Profiling.

You wanna ride around on a bike that handles and stops a little better?

Buy a Dyna or a Sporty.

My Train handles like chit. It rides rough as it lowered. I have mirror polished rotors and it essentially has no brakes....

I love the fvckin' bike and couldnt see owning anything else right now today. Bad brakes, edgy handling, rough ride and all!!!
