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?
I'm not really a cruiser guy, but if I had to do something factory I would probably get a leftover VTX1800 and pocket some coin in the deal. Ideally though I would use that money, plus a little more, and build a prostreet myself.

I want to like it, but I cant get into that fat front tire and 2.1 gal tank. too small a tank for me. I gotta have 5 gallons or so, and provisions for 2 people. AKA superglide.
