No, but they are sure as hell trying, aren't they?

You have to follow success and you have to admit, HD has had a little success in the cruiser market.

The Bonnie/Thruxton/Speedmaster platform is one of the sweetest "old school" packages around; low, comfy, torquey, sweet riding, sweet handling, easy to work on, easy on the eyes and stone-axe reliable. I had a devil of a time letting go of mine............but money is money

I've entertained the notion of getting a Thruxton many times over the last few years; before the Warrior, and before the Buell fire sale.
I just never pulled the trigger and my interest got hijacked elsewhere.

That new Bonnie looks great to me, but I love retro/standards.
I'm not sure I'm comfortable with them straying too far from the classic look, but if it keeps their sales numbers up so they don't go under, I guess I'll deal.
