Not a Harley guy but...

Test riding this was fun today.

Not sure I'd pay $12,000, but I did like it. Much lighter and more comfortable than it looks. Plenty of power. I love custom choppers.

I used to admire choppers. then they came out with all those tv show

You and that green!!!

Just coincidence I'm sure. It is still funny!

Coincidence. They had a couple, the green one just fit better. Like I said, awesome. Low weight center, wide rear tire really keeps you planted, stretched out riding position. Bar hopper though, couldn't pass up a test ride though.

Choppers are still cool. I used to want one, but my 1400 is styled close enough that is satisfies that itch. I'd never ride a hard tail though, too much abuse to the back.

Bar hopper for sure, but not a rigid. Hidden softail. Notice the swingarm.

Although, I didn't really notice that THAT bike wasn't a hard tail, my comment was in reference to choppers in general that do have hard tails. Thanks for pointing that out though, I did go back and look again. I've seen several HDs lately that you'd swear just by looking at them, they are hard tail bikes while they are not. That green one isn't one of them however.

I sure hope so, it looks like something you ride to bike night and back.... and then spend the next 6 days polishing it.

Myself, I wouldn't take it around the block.

I ride to work every day when the weather is nice. I don't polish anything. Good wash and wax once a year, spray it off in between.

I have enjoyed the test ride, but the wife would never be comfortable on the back.

Only way I wouldn't have to worry about it, is if she fell off.

That's a nice looking bike!

I also love the chopper look. But like you, I'm riding every day. I ride until it freezes, my bike is my every day driver for work. The chopper, as much as I love it, is not practical right now for me.



But there's always someday...

While ddog and you both say it isn't a hardtail the specs page says it is. If you notice below it says it is a hardtail and has a 38° rake, but then it says it has 4° raked triple trees. So which is it 38° or 4 °?

Frame Hard-tail Large Diameter Tube Frame 2 in. Top Tube Stretch
Rake 38°

The standard features page also says:
Polished billet 4° raked triple trees

Its a dealer they don't know squat about bikes they just sell them.
