I totally get that someone is not going to trade away their sport bike for on of these. It's a different market completely.

I do however feel that it will not simply be the "Sportster" crowd. I personally feel it will appeal to some of the Dyna and Victory cruiser crowds as well. As far as size goes, it fits in between the Sportster and Dyna.

On my ride this weekend, we were talking to some folks, and quite a few mentioned the bike. Some were interested as a replacement and two of the folks talked about making an addition to their garage.

Personally I could see me trading up to this as my daily commuter.
