What is this?

**ringadingh** · 12-10-2011, 07:09 PM

It looks like a San Fransisco rainbow bike to me.

That "Duck" sure looks inviting, for a day anyway! Nice pics, the show will be here in Chicago first part of Feb.

I think the sunglasses caused the shirt to pucker and wrinkle.

He looks happiest on it, although I'd like to hear his take on all of them.

I was not impressed with the new Victory tour.. Just seems "less". I thought I'd like it but as you can see I wasn't blow away..

Yea Scott that RG was bitchen... that dark red was beautiful in person but the GW.... Marie sat on the back seat and said, "OMG this is comfortable!" saw she had her own radio and heated seat and could hook into bluetooth and intercom and told me, "this is the ultimate". Really nice bikes all around but nothing really knocked my socks off.

She did think the Thunderbird looked tough.. GW was listed at 27K and the RG was 22K. She thought the GW "cockpit" looked like a 747's!! there must be 50 seperate buttons and switches... Now if I could find a HD dealer (I have) that would deal on the RG who knows??? I'd like the GW but I still work and don't have the extra time to ride 1000K miles a day everyday...

The paint schemes on the Voyager looked 100% Japanese paint. The Triumph, Harley and Victory's paint and chrome are so much deeper...

you Greg!!!!

That's it? As far as all the buttons go, that's old school. I thought the RG Ultra was a little more than 22K?
