Too bad they didn't turn on the damn lights for the photo shoot. You know, so we could see what the thing looks like.

I would like to ride one to the local mega HD dealer but would probably get beat up. I don't want to buy one.

 

[Shinyribs]

Ok. That's cool.

You were holding out on us!

I don't see myself buying one but I think it looks good.

Nah not even small hole in the wall shops are that crazy. You might deal with some smart ass that isn't even liked by the core group.

I sold some stuff on marketplace to guy what worked in the shop at my local HD dealership. The way our schedules were working out I ended up just delivering the parts to him at work. He's riding a dual sport'd Buell Blast, another tech was on a KLR 650 and another had an older Victory. I was joking with them about it and wanted to know who there rides a Harley.

"They don't pay us good enough to buy Harley's" 😂

Man, those old tough guy biker tales are just that. Nobody's beating up anybody for riding the wrong bike.

This styling and upright seating position using the new Sporster S motor could seriously make me consider spending money.

no spoked wheels, I'm out

 

[Shinyribs]

I would assume spoke wheels required moderately skilled manual labor and a fair amount of time vs robots machining castings, so too costly to give us on a "budget" bike.

Funny to think that "antiquated" spoke wheels are now sort of an artisan thing..

My old neighbor has a rapido 125 and an AMF ironhead... great bikes. He caved after over 40yrs on the same sporty and bought a 2000s goldwing. And now he runs the goldwing darkside and is very very happy. Soon the bike will be double darkside.

Does it have the necessary speed limiting technology to adequately impede the normal flow of traffic?😁

specs look like it's under powered and over weight

It's definitely a Harley then!

I hope Harley didn't pay much to rebrand another underpowered India bike. Looking at it from the side (not these glamour shots), the tank looks ridiculously out of place.
