Releasing 750 huh? That's a logical number to start with... fucking HD marketing geniuses!

I'm thinking that this model is going to be sold out the first year and that's gonna be it. The enthusiasts will snap them up on the first release and next year it'll be on the show room being mocked by the rest of the Wild Hoggers as girlie bikes.

It's the first HD with an inverted fork. Widely touted as the best handling, best performing Harley Davidson EVAR!

Even with the color scheme, it looks like it has promise. While most of TMC's line of bikes doesn't appeal to me at all, this one just might. Even better would be a 'night' version - although a tank, some bodywork, and a trip to a painter would 'cure' the visual yuck for me even as issued...

Try it out and let us know what you think of the suspension, brakes, and accelleration.
