[pauly]

Are you serious. Got any links. I'll trade up from my little sportster.

not in person, but in the Toronto paper.
cool stuff - porsche engine.
I like the look of it.
it has better timing on the valves, so it has tons better performance, but not that distinctive sound...

Read and saw it in Cycle Canada this weekend. Cool bike but i will take the traditional ride anyday.

Scrappy the motor is a Harley motor with some input from porsche. But is is definalty HD made, it had to be a harley and sound like a harley Willie G wouldn't have it any other way. I will have to hear it to believe it myself.

For all you H-D fanatics.....the new bike is all metric. This is True. hehe

big dawg, from what I've read it's supposed to sound absolutely nothing like a regular Harley.........this is what i"ve read multiple times now, take it for what you will.

That is funny because in the Cycle Canada article Wille G. Davidson was going on about how when they unveiled it, it was the harley sound he envisioned.

Like I say, I will believe it when I see it. I don't see how they can make a liquid cool have that same sound man.

Just visited the website. It has a slightly different sound than other Harley's. I made up my mind, I'm trading up. Wfab. what kind of insight can you give me on this bike, if any?

Here's mine now.

salami, while your comments do amuse me........I think you don't know what you're talking about when it comes to bikers nowadays. No job?? how the fuck are you going to afford a Harley??? You won't.......Harleys run more than alot of family sedans nowadays. You have to be pretty fucking wealthy to own a Harley, even older ones.....

i was saying no job in response to what fabriozo said that you dont see "real bikers" so much anymore. so i was just wondering what makes a biker a "real biker". thats why i said no job, fat, tattooed, ugly, hairy, dirty person.

when it comes right down to it i prefer captain.

HD can keep that thing. If I wanted a whining rice rocket I'd buy one. You are absolutely right about having to be wealthy to own a Harley nowadays. True bikers are a thing of the past. The last guy I was talking to about Harleys was the management consultant that was in our office. He wore a Rolex and rode a Road King. LOL.

I want a Big Dog Pitbull. With a 107" S&S in it, it'll run with the rice. (not corner though) BUT, I need to come up with the 20K to buy it

the captain name is really what i would consider my regular one. when my assets increase ill resurrect him.
