Not a bike guy just saw it on Youtube today when checking it out.

quick look shows a number of exhaust options. you picky a-holes happy now?

and you can just rest your boots on the cylinder heads. that's the way we did it on the R50s.




talk to me fall next year. think I'm going to be riding one of these.

The aftermarket can fix anything, just need to find the right fabricator.

Not impressed with it's design...looks the bastard child of several bikes that I don't like !

When I bought my bike and picked it up at the dealer, I got a chance to see the R18 in person. Too huge for me. That is one very long bike and very heavy too. You would have to be into cruisers to like this bike.

Put down a deposit. Picking up in may.

Kudos Varmint. Keep us posted. Looking forward to your riding impressions. That’s a big, heavy cruiser. I imagine it’s going to be outstanding on the highway. Not so sure about tight curvy roads and such.

but does it have a reverse gear? huh?

[gregpark]

No reverse. Been a few times that would've been handy

Im 55. and this is probably the last bike i will buy. i have my dream sport bike. i have the ural. and don't see anything coming in the next 20-30 years that i really want. unless flying bikes become a thing.

the wife insisted on the big bagger. i ordered a bobber kit anyway. i'll install it in a few years when she stops paying attention.

You're a better man than me V. 788 is waaaay too much heft for me. Good luck, shiny side up.

Rode her home yesterday. Froze my ass off.

Cool !!!!!!!

Varmint I sometimes, rarely, fall in love with stuff that I just HAVE to have. When I get it I am thrilled of course and the HAVE TO HAVE IT feeling goes away. But that's all that goes away. The thrill part and the love part don't go away. Years later, I might look at it and think to myself "you're gorgeous."

The style of that motorcycle is stunning. Like art deco, kinda.

Art Deco -meets- Street Tough.
