A couple suspension and exhaust tweaks and it's the best motorcycle ever built! Who wants to play with DOHC shim adjustments of the Jap bikes I want to ride! The Japs couldn't even copy it right!
Hello Mr. Tool. Thanks for the useless opinion you got from some crap forum or chat. I sure you haven't even ridden the bike before you wrote it off. Ignorance is bliss...so laugh on.
@SwitchBladeMalone WTF are you talking about. Riding isn't about comparing ,this vs that and so on , this is the job of the idiots , the magazines and the clueless. Harley rocks on with tones of character and history. And this from my 25 years on the wheels.And 1400cc under my croach.
Fuck yes this bike rocks! Igrew up ona dirt track. My father (ted Newton) and his best friend/brother (Rex Beauchamp (rip) were THE best flat track champions in the 70's...nobody could touch them. and they raced the XR750's....If ANYBODY has ANY knowledge or history in dirt track racing, they would absolutely 100% agree that this street legal replica of the XR750 IS fucking BAD ASS!!!............oh......and Fuck all you rice burner sissys! BUY AMERICAN!!!
ricer burning sissys? without the japanese technology wouldn't be where it is at. and you're fuckin stupid. The XR1200 runs Showa USDs. Showa's are japanese, therefore your last comment about rice burning sissy's is invalid. QED
That's bullshit this bike rocks you can lean it hard into the twistys and pitch sideways on the dirt track. Try all that with a jap bike and you fail at one of the 2.
I wish they would sell them ALL in the US. I am no Harley hater - but this one Is neither a Harley nor a sportbike. Just a heavy lump of wrought iron. No finesse at all.
If you like harleys buy a Fatboy or a Crossbones. They are cool - this one is not.
Made in China, assembled in USA. the right bike for rice-burner and toolkids.

So Harley comes out with an expensive street bike, and all of a sudden it's an american vs. Jap issue.
News flash: America lost when the CB750 came out 40 years ago. I know I know, it's tough. Suck it up.
I would love to see this go against a Ducati... HAHAHAhha
