We have had our Hertiage for 3 years and love it. We can cruise around the block on a quite afternoon. We can also take it 1734 miles to Sturgis and have a good ride. The Hertiage rocks. It's the best all around bike Harley makes period.

V-Rods? Are you guys serious? It's funny how everyone thinks it's the sexiest bike ever made, at least that's the reaction I get from people regardless of where I go. Maybe it's a US thing.
I like all Harley's, they are awesome, but if I had to pick a loser it would be the new XR 1200, the bike looks like fail to me and the ergonomics are poor.

That *** as far back and feet as far forward as possible on a v-rod must be quite an experience.... I'll pass!

VROD - ugly, idiotic riding position for sport riding, power/brakes/weight are sub-par for sporting purposes. It should have been aborted.
Road Glide - Doesn't look like a Harley should with that ugly fairing. Some days I like it from some angles, but usually I dislike it. I don't hate it, though.
Other than that... I know 98.5% (yes I am sure of that number) of HD Forum folks will clench fists and weep tears for my opinion, but the trend of putting 21 inch front wheels on the Deluxe looks horrible to me. It's comical in how oversized it looks, and on top of that it looks horrible mismatched with the stock 16 inch rear. It ruins the looks of Harley's best looking bike IMO. 21/16 combos look fine on other bikes, but the old FL look with the full FL fender does not compliment it at all IMO. I hate it.

Thought this would be interesting to see everyones taste. Don't take it personal if I name your ride, just my opinion. I have seen all these bikes with mods that I like, I am just talking bone stock.
1. V-ROD (all of them)
2. Heritage (I hate studs)
3. Rocker (just not for me)
What a traitor, 2 our of 3 are softails.

HMMMM! The 3 I think are the fugliest? Well they are:
1. VROD Muscle (The back end looks like poop)
2. Road Glide ( Front end....need I say more? )
3. Most CVO Paint Jobs ( The Eighties called...they want their painters back!)

Must have no taste Like My Heritage Classic and have had a lot of great comments on it.
Now the Bike that is drawing me too it when I stop by Harley is the XR1200. Go Figure.
Now the one I never really like was the Road Glide. Just never like the fairing.

I like all bikes, but a few are kinda ugly IMO. But hey I used to hate baggers, now thats all I want to ride, go figure.
The new sportster ( the one with the fat front wheel, why? )
The softail deluxe ( to old fashion for me )
V- rod's
