OK I ride a cruiser (V92C) I personally believe that the Sportster is the best looking best looking of all of HD's air cooled machines. the XR looks rather like a sport bike for an old guy.. Oh wait I a, an old guy

The April 09 issue of Playboy compares the XR1200 to the Aprilia Tuono. I wrote the editor an email saying that they should stay away from the motorcycle commentary business and concentrate on porns.

I sat on one in Daytona and I'm totally sold. Not sure if I'll ever own one, but it sure is a cool bike.
