I like it. It looks just as good or better than any harley on the market, and minus a few very small stick on badges nobody would ever know you were riding a honda

The funny thing for me is that they are comparing it to bikes that cost $30,000+. Motorcyclist did a comparo with this bike against a Big Dog that cost $35,000, ummm this bike cost $12,000. They're like, I don't like the fender, gauges, whatever. I'm thinking, for $22,000 you can do whatever the fuck you want to this bike and still buy the wife a bike to boot! I guarantee you that this bike will never have the problems that some Big Dogs have. Considering the fact that it's shaft-drive, maintenance will be changing oil for at least the first 10-20,000 miles, depending on what tires are on it and how you drive. I think it's a great chopper-esque bike for someone who doesn't want to work on them.

I'd be surprised if it does well. They are introducing it on the back end of this 'chopper' fad.

It's getting good reviews from what I read. Solid engine and typical Honda. Complaints seem to be too much plastic covers. It just looks typical to me. And the way I see it the chopper craze is all but over.

That's what I read in my free issue of Motorcyclist... Again, what can you expect for $13,000? I'd imagine there will be a ton of aftermarket stuff for it, if it becomes popular.
