So, still half the price of what Harley would want for a similar bike, and this one won’t leave you stranded by the side of the road... great!

Pretty sweet, looks like they are going directly after the custom builders and some of the bespoke companies as well as Harley themselves. For $13k, that would be very competitive.

That style was in vogue about 5 years ago. Everything now is retros, bobbers.

American made Confederate bikes are also way cool.

The angularity of the frame mixed with the smooth curves of the tank and fenders don’t get it. The tank sits awkwardly on the top frame rail and the space between the front cylinder and frame makes it look like a parts bin creation. 13000 is about right for a bike without many features but wait three or four years and you’ll be able to pick one up for about $5000. bucks.
Also great to see that some people on this board continue to bash American industry, staying true to the eventual demise of our American owned industrial base.

Another faux Harley. Not that I mind, really, but prefer my Road King.

Another imitation Harley.
In the early 80s Japanese motorcycle companies were telling us that the V configuration was obsolete. The inline engine was the only way to go. What happened? It wasn’t long before Japan was putting out V engines.

I ride a Suzuki 1200 Bandit. I wave at all two-wheel brethren, be it scooters on up. I have no dog in this fight, but I still think this thing will be as popular as the Rune (ie. not very).

Must be fuel injected. Wouldn’t Japanese pronounce it “fuelie”?
