I think it looks pretty kickass.

Don't like the headlights though. Looks too much like a yamaha or something.

Yes. And I was merely referring to the headlights and how they make bike look like any other new crotch rocket on the road, not just Yamaha specifically. Sorry. :D Guess I just liked the weird ass bubble headlights better.

Iunno, I could see it maybe being a freak of nature Yamaha + old Buell. But even though they tried to make it look more like a sport bike, it still looks like they forgot to finish making it imo.

I used to think that too. But then the style just grew on me. When I heard and XB12 start up and rev, I was sold. I was just scared about horror stories with reliability, but from what I've read they've come a long way in that regard.

I still dream of the day that Harley makes a sport bike. I'm willing to bet that will never happen though. Just something about a domestic crotch-rocket would make my nipples hard. :cool:

Ugly as sin. I mean like an actual sportbike looking sportbike. Not a sportbike with all the fairings pulled off and a flashlight bolted to the handle bars. Then shortened an extra 6 inches.

I've ridden an xb12 and they ride nice. Feels just like a sportbike.

Each to their own but I dig the shit out of the XB12R every time I get on it. And it looks and sounds fanfuckingtastic!

I think the V-Rod is about as close to a harley davidson sportbike as they will ever get, and harley has taken a lot of shit just for the v rod. Personally i love them.

the 1125R's headlights look more like a Honda than a Yamaha, but alright...

I would ride one around for a little just for fun, but would not spend a dollar on it.
