2016 Harley Davidson Roadster - metallyguitarded_imp - 04-23-2016
This new bike coming out by HD has piqued my interest. It's similar in design to the Sportster and Iron 883 but there's just something about it that draws me in unlike those others. What do you think?

Just looks like any other Sportster to me. But that's just my opinion.

Not my cuppa either, but that's fine.
Perhaps we need to merge this thread with the following?

From what I've read of this model, it has some needed improvements among them, more suspension travel which is easily seen in the photo. Also a larger fuel tank, improved front forks and brakes. Not a bike I would want personally but a good choice for someone who likes the Sportster style.

I missed that thread. Maybe our new moderator can link them. Or, this one will simply die a slow, painful death.

I like the look of that bike... but for me, unless I was going to replace my CB (and I'm not), I'll pass on it. When or if I replace my SuperGlide it would be with another big twin... not its smaller brother. Cool looking bike though!

Kind of like it. Would modify as follows: full-length fenders, larger headlight, slightly taller and wider mx style bars, a long flat seat, and a 2 into 1 conical black pipe.

Looks a lot like other the Sportsters. Always thought they look nice but I've read so many negative things about them I would stay away.

I had a Sportster... 2003 hard mounted. It shook a bit but was fine. I'm sure the rubber mounted ones are nicer to ride.
