Might have something to do with the EICMA show being this week and H-D formally revealing the Pan-American and a few others.

Personally, I think it looks like Bender from Futurama. It'll still say "potato potato" when it's running, but now it'll do it with John DiMaggio's voice.

I can’t argue with you on that. I hope it looks better in person.One Ugly bike!
I’ll bet you can pick one up left over new cheap in a couple of years.

Doesn't look any worse than a ST13 with the bags off!

Oh, like the 2014 CTX1300?
The ST1300 was not meant to be BAGLESS!
But putting bags on the HD, won't help the looks at all!

The only bag that would work is one over my head so I couldn't see that monstrosity.
Now Jim, THAT IS FUNNY!
I was just going to say it looked like a shark...with no teeth. lol

I'm not big on the ADV look but I agree and am not liking H-Ds rectangular row of headlights. And the new CHP H-Ds have that ugly cowl again.
Fair point. You have to mod your mount/dismount from prima ballerina (as demoed by Capt. Crash's daughter) to a Bruce Lee side kick.bdalameda said:
Having the panniers up that high may also through off the CG a skosh but it makes getting at the rear wheel/tire bits a little easier.
It's not my favorite design, and I'd never buy one, but I kinda like the looks of it. I also appreciate the looks of older classic bikes, but I don't want to own one of those either. I'm just too practical... much more function over form.
Agreed
Harley is also introducing a streetfighter, "Bronx"

I kinda like that one too. If I was looking for that style, I'd certainly consider it.Agreed

You said.I bet it is just as effective on the dirt as a toothless Shark in the Sea!
But I agree, I wouldn't want to be on any heavy adventure bike off road. Give me a XR400R any day.

Hmmmm, just because you can shouldn't always be a reason to do something.
But, when you mix sipping whisky and modociccles what does one expect.
