I have many Harley friends. Very mixed feelings about this bike. I've heard
some say you may as well buy a Yamaha V-Max. Others just love it and can't
wait to get their hands on it. As a long time rider, this is the first Harley
I've considered buying, and I'm originally from Milwaukee! It handles, is
fast, and in my opinion, looks good for a cruiser. Rumour has it that they
are considering using the motor and frame on a cafe/roadster style bike.
Must...be...patient.

I was up in Lake Placid, NY, last week. Parked on the street one
afternoon was one of those new generation Harley Davidson motorcycles.
I didn't know what it was until I saw the name on the tank. It was all
silver, almost everything on it was either painted, polished, or
chromed. In some ways it looks modern, but in others it reminds me of
"the mototcycle of the future" from a '50's issue of Popular Mechanics.
My question is, how is this new design regarded by the H D
traditionalists? Is anyone out there connected to the H D world?
