A blue one and a black one, on the floor at Botany Honda, sure are different for a metric cruiser

Looks nice!

Looks like Honda got watchin' American Chopper. I kinda like it, visually, though it'll always lack the soul of a scratch built chopper.

This has been done by big dave on the other thread.

Still hate it!

They should be paying royalties to HD and Victory.....

It would make sense if a mod could maybe merge my poorly named thread with this more suitably titled one?

Altho i wouldn't buy one, it looks good for a Metric Crusier.
Clean uncluttered.
H-D could learn a few styling lessons from Honda,Its what the Rocker could've /should've been.Instead of the pig ugly thing it is.

I agree with BD it'd look better with polished rims.

Better than the Rocker? You want eye drops?

Don't take it personally, remember beauty is in the ey of the beholder - a lot of people don't find Buell's that attractive.....

As the French would say 'vive la différence!' - I think one of the great things about the NZ motorcycle scene is the huge variety of machinery (not to mention riders/owners!).....each to their own.

Hey, absolutely agree. Which I guess Is why I dont get some of the negative press toward the rocker.
I like all kinds of bikes/makes. Other Harleys, Triumph, Ducati etc etc. I don't mind the look of the Honda too.

I was disappointed by the amount of plastic on the bike. Shame they couldn't have used steel on the guards etc.... Riding position seems comfy enough. Will never be a harley tho.

I rode it to pookee and back today - Runcimen Rd was very enjoyable, and it's perfick on the freeway. Just sat on the speed limit all day and was happy doing it.
Comfort is good, the seat gets slightly warm, not hot, but the tackle is pretty close to the cylinder heads down there.
I'm still diggin' it.
