2011 HD cross bones

Particle Man 05-16-2011 10:47 AM
I'd like it better with straight bars or something with less of a rise.

RACER X 05-16-2011 10:48 AM
I agree

You used "discount" and "HD" in the same sentence. Bravo. :lol:

Eh, but what do I know? Maybe they're having to bend with the economy just like everyone else. :idk:

I think they will still find people to pay the over inflated prices.

Krabill 05-16-2011 11:10 AM
There are used Harley's EVERYWHERE. Tons of people thought they NEEDED a Harley only to find out they really don't.

For the record . . . I like the crossbones.

that was my first thought, lol..

HD = hundred dollars, increments thereof.. and usually not 1 or 2.. usually in the double digit range..

Looks better with the taller bars, IMO.
Wouldn't a Victory highball be cheaper anyway?

RACER X 05-16-2011 03:12 PM
Yes, but I like the bobber look better

Dave 05-16-2011 03:29 PM
Discount :lmao:

If a dealer starts giving you BS about hard to find, limited production or tries to boast that they don't "mark up" from msrp, don't waste your time, just leave and find another dealer. There are a lot of good honest dealers out there. NEVER pay MSRP !!!
and when I was riding thru El Paso, they had a huge HD Dealership.supposedly they still slot because they discount and ship (maybe to mexico?)

I believe that's Barnett's.
They're the ones with the Fly & Ride program.
They pay $200 of your airfare to fly out to El Paso and you ride your bike home.
From El Paso to Houston, you'd be well into your break-in by the time you got home.

Gas Man 05-16-2011 09:29 PM
I've rode one. They have em down at my dealer for demo's all the time. I test rode one... I didn't like it in stock form but it can be modified to fix some of my issues with it.

It's the thick walled tire that helps.

I think so, I see the springer soft tails and think they look like poo, but with the beefy tire it def looks better.

Not all springers are alike. That one has a shock and rides really well. Not like old school shitty springers.

I would hope that its gotten better with time, but all in all I just dont care for that look.

Particle Man 05-17-2011 07:00 PM
See that's where I would just buy a Ural

They are ultra cool to watch rolling down the road.

When I test rode one of these I was aiming for pot holes while sticking my head around to watch the springs do their thing.

I'm planning on buying one, just as soon as my fucking legs fall off.

Thats no excuse. There's a 1 legged dude around my area who rides on two wheels. He sits on his crutch. It's a sight to see going down the road.

talk to Rich Kummer
tell him a guy named Terry who bought an Iron sent you. It's up to you to figure in the shipping. pricewise you'd be hard pressed to beat them. I'll warn you what he did for me was say name your price. I gave him a lowball number and he took it. well under list. no BS charges either. good guy to work with.

fly up drive it home.

Basically the world is supposed to end tonight or in 2012.

And the Cubs will win the World Series. You choose which is more likely :lol:

Apoc 05-23-2011 12:40 PM
Meh, I have one. I love the way they look. Probably the nicest HD in a long, long time. But damn, do I ever hate not having the power and handling of a sport bike.

It does handle and ride pretty well though.

RACER X 05-23-2011 04:56 PM
Is your s relatively stock, performance wise? Have tje factory risers?

No real performance upgrades, but truly it doesnt matter. Even with the 110ci kit and a good cam, you'll barely break 100hp, 110lb/ft torque.

A friends dad has a 140ci S&S in his heritage, and it doesnt have the power of a new 600.
