I'll take on the winner!! I'll admit quickly that my pocket book is one reason I don't ride Hardley anymore. And comparing the ones I rode to the new ones is unfair. But I really like the 1st Gen. It would take a lot of bike to get me off it. If I ever decide to go new (and I could swing one if I really wanted) I would have to look close at the Wings. My Harley chopper will always be in my heart. Girls fought to get on the back of that thing!!!
