Thanks man. I really do enjoy taking these bikes out, and this one is so unique in the Harley lineup.

Just turned 22 last month, looking forward to picking this up next year as I move to Ithaca or NYC for my master's in financial engineering. Awesome review sir, enjoyed watching this thoroughly.

Do own 1. Joy to ride. 176cm tall. Find it comfortable. Alot of power on tap.

Agree -- tons of power.

I'd get a used one still on warrenty and extend it. Once the tail hugger and stock pipe is gone, it'd be great.

12:32 mast amazing ride, that says alot

I got to test ride a couple recently, the forward controls are awful, making me feel cramped into a letter 'C'. BUT the MID controls are SO much better, way more comfortable! Its like a different bike!

The letter C is a good descriptor for the stock riding position. Yes, I bet mids are much better. I could use some T bars as well!

That Sporty 1200 A-rod’s on is really nice.

Thanks again, ARod! 👍🏼

I especially love the helicopter tail boom tail light and license plate bracket that looks like it was just stuck on there as an afterthought, due to poor design.👍

@@rarebreed9208 so what. You said it was a poor design and I gave an eg why you're wrong.

Idk why but it looks weird, i guess its because all the old people at harley tried to make something look modern but it looks like what people thought futuristic was during y2k. The indian scout 60 looks a bit better and is a bit cheaper

Somebody in the comments said it looks like a hot wheel. I dig it, but it’s probably not for everyone. Since posting this a few friends have said they’ve ridden them with mid-controls and enjoyed them. I think I would like that.

Yeah, sorry bout that! 😂

It has everything I don’t want. It’s a ‘clutter cluster.’ What a mess…. If I want a sport bike, I’ll buy a sport bike. ‘But it’s fast’ …..don’t want fast. ‘It’s got more horsepower’….don’t need it. Seems all you did was complain about the ride as you went along. Old people aren’t interested and young people can’t afford it.

But it’s fast! 😝 Just kidding. Your points are all valid. Still, though, it’s impressive Harley can just decide to build something like this and then do it. Now if they would just release the Bronx bike they teased several years ago ….

i would remove those stupid engine covers on the right side.

It might be a good motorcycle, but it's not a good Harley Davidson

I suspect you're not alone in that assessment. I think it's a cool bike with an awesome motor, but it's a departure for Harley.
