I know how you dudes love Harley Davidson

And so do I. So here's a concept HD bike.

I actually like it. Looks totally bad ass. Shorter wheelbase than the bus-like VROD and uses the killer VROD engine. Killer.

Quote:

Centered around capturing a younger demographic, the Brawler is the latest concept from Travis Clark. Hoping to engage younger riders with an actually sporty Sportster, Clark’s Brawler, in its finest trim, combines the high-powered Porsche designed motor in an attractive package that speaks more to a younger generation than anything that’s come out of Milwaukee…and it looks good too.

While Harley-Davidson has certainly been gaining some traction in younger markets with its different Sportster offerings, like the new Forty-Eight, the company still needs a major youth infusion. Clark thinks that his Brawler is the the ticket with its more modern design and performance-centered operation. Designed to come with two different suspension packages, the base Brawler features inverted forks and an 88ci air-cooled HD power plant, while the high-end brawler comes with the V-Rod motor and leading link front suspension.

There are some cues to the original VRSC, but Clark’s Brawler also has hints from other designs. For instance, the high-mounted scrambler-styled exhaust is a welcomed change from the down and low pipes we’re accustomed to seeing from the custom crowd. With other manufacturers interested in the performance cruiser segment, it will be interesting to see if Harley-Davidson picks up designs like the Brawler.

Sex on a motherfreakin stick!!!

Like a street fightered vrod!!!

I love this...combino!

Thievery.

It has potential.

They both look like Confederate wannabes but that certainly isn't a bad thing.

The Vrod version looks like a Vrod with a PIAA lights and scrambler pipes. :idk:

wait didnt harley already have a project were they stuck their sportster engine into a sporty(er) frame, mmmm... i cant remember the name of its

Nope, even if I was given one, I wouldn't keep it. I would sell the bitch in a hurry.

Which one weighs under 500lbs?
I'll check out that one

The one without an engine?:lol:

That thing looks like the mutant love child of a Beull and a V-Max. I actually think it looks all right, which is really too bad. If a bike has any appeal to me there is a safe bet those making product decisions at HD think they need to kill it with fire.

Kinda looks like something Batman would ride.

I'll start saving my pennies...

Then buy the street version of the Buell 1190!!

I have 100% confidence that HD will fuck it up.

As of two weeks ago, yes. Strangely enough Harley is having trouble finding a buyer in the current economic climate.

No.

The box marked "Fancy Boat Anchor" it came in.

It looks like a fishing lure, designed by blind retards who can't fish.

That is surprising, you'd think one of the asian scooter factorys would love to pull a benelli

Looks like a beefed up Buell to me

Possibly, but I don't know what Harley wants for the MV brand. At the time it was reported that Harley paid around €70 million, around $90 million using exchange rates from then, for the company. I suspect Harley wants more than anyone is currently offering.

i am sure it will look good when they film torque II..
