Saying that the "styling is better" is a subjective statement, not an objective one. There is no "best" looking bike as people have different tastes. I think the only good looking bikes from H-D are the Sportster Nightster and the XR1200 line. Many die-hard Harley fans disagree with me. If the company put out more bikes like this XR1200 (a bike that many ignored, btw), I'd have one sitting in my garage. Not everyone wants a 750lb behemoth for cruising around town.

No one can possibly answer this question unless you elaborate on what qualities a bike has that makes you happy. Personally, I think the XR1200 is the most practical motorcycle HD has made in a LONG time. It has a more "standard" riding position with the foot pegs under you, where they belong; not stretched way the fuck out under the handlebars. The brakes, suspension, tranny, and engine are nothing to complain about. I suggest sitting on one; if you like that, you're set.

I'm curious, I currently ride a 77 KZ1000, Would I be happy with this bike or would I feel kinda bleh about it, I don't drive too fast or any of that crotch rocket bs.

as far as I'm convcerned, if you want a cruiser, you have to get a harley, the stlying alone is so much better, and now a days many of the harley prices actually beat japanese bikes, for example, compare a new VROD harley with a Yamaha Vmax, yes the Vmax is no doubt a faster higher performance bike but it is also $5k more than a VROD and still doesnt look as good. Then Compare a 1200 sportster custom with similar japenese bikes, the price is better and you get better finishes and more chrome.
