Got to see a street 500 Saturday. They set up right next to me at a music festival. The demo was dumb as hell but the bike looked great. I'd expected a much cheaper looking product and I was wrong. Although the whole staff referred to it as a "starter" bike I don't fall in to that and will seriously probably own one at some point.

Yeah I heard on a podcast that it wasn't up to normal Harley fit and finish and if that is so, I sure didn't see it. I didn't think in person the radiator looked bad but in all the pictures I've seen I did. I really don't think that with the small displacement and quiet exhaust it will do much for core Harley people, but I also don't think it was made for them. It does sound like a Jetson car but I was enamored by that. I'm not a brand loyal kind of person but I think I'd like this bike no matter who was the manufacturer. I can't wail untill the 750 hits the used market. But then again for around $7000 I may go new.

Ulysseses are a magnificent bargain right now and they still do the #potatopotatopotato thing. 130% of a road king's capability, 30% of the price. I'd love to have one. I'm just not sure it's different enough from my 990 adv to justify having one. That and there's actually a small chance I'll see another 990 in the wild. Then we'd have something to talk about.
