Its not suppose to have a seat...
But you can add a rear seat and pegs... As far as price... have you ever rode a new 1200 sporty? Well worth the 10500. What else is offereed in that market for that price? |

HD has a chance with me when they bring back Buell.
This bike not for me regardless. |

Best case would be an epic fail of a sporty bike branded HD using some buell designs.
I really don't think they will go sportier than the XR though. |

I dont either. It's not their core market. It would be a failure. Sportbike riders don't want to ride a HD. And HD doesn't want to build a sportbike.

I'd give it a fair shake, well would have. But I like the push-rod lump.
