IMHO it's an abortion[sm=badidea.gif] .....
Harley Davidson should stick with the traditional bikes they have been building. Maybe some of the new ones can stay like the nightster and the street bob.
Has anyone gotten a good look at the Dyna Fat Bob? I thought it looked great till I saw it from the front...[sm=WTFsgign.gif]Dual Headlights? May as well buy a Triumph....

It has some real cool ideas on it but it just not my thing. On the border of being ugly and nice but you need a few more drinks to asked her out. My 2 cent with a extra 2.

X3 To me the seat look like it belongs on a crotch rocket. It's not my style but I'm sure there will be some takers. Definatley not a touring bike IMO.

Well i love it, to each his own but i'm expecting Harley to sell a stack of them,especially the Rocker 'C'

Early reports tend to suggest it's a cracker of a bike.

I like the seat idea,i mean no ones going to ride around with it up unless a passenger is on board.

The bike hit's the U.K. in November and i'll be popping down to the dealers for a looksie and maybe wangle a test ride

Ehh--Not a bad looking ride, but not for me. I might change my mind once I see one up close. I think there is already a solution to put bags on the rocker. At least I seems to recall seein that someplace.

Right now I see using a fork bag and maybe a back pack for the driver. In a way I like the bike.....looks like a semi custom bike.....but my overall opinion is its an ugly bike .....but it may grow on me.......like some of the others have said....after its been out a while someone will come out with luggage ideas

check out nelson rig I bought a tail bag for my ninja there it comes with bungee cords in place. plus has a carry handle and shoulder strap for when you get off the bike. I paid around 65.00 for it. also underware is cheap wear an old pair and when you get to your destination make a trip to wally world buy a couple of pair , toss the used ones and keep a pair to wear home . or go commando and shower every day.

I like the the model with all the Chrome, the rear seat is cool, nothing for a long trip but, in town for a few miles its OK.

I'll pass. Would be a cool bike around town but agonizing on long rides.
