A guy on the floor here where I work just took delivery of an HD Night Train. He brought some shots in to work of his new beauty, and it sure looks sweet. I know most of those on this forum blast HD (mostly for the posers that ride them than the bikes themselves, IMHO), but this is basically a blacked out (ala Speedmaster) version of the "Deuce," which is (Again IMHO) probably one of the most attractive bikes HD makes. The guy put some Vance and Hines big bore "Street Sweeper" pipes on, and those really set the whole package off nicely.

Love the name - Nighttrain. Has that Guns n'Roses feel... That is a seriously blacked out bike! I agree with you about the Deuce, great looking bike. NT looks good too IMO. I've liked soft tails ever since I saw my first one in '85. Motorcycles as art. Hope your friend has a blast on his new ride.

My buddy has a Night Train, nice bike except for his is the awful blue, 100 yr anniversary paint. Nothing could look worse on this black bike. Cycle magazine had an orange/tribal paint Night Train in an add, looked pretty tough (screaming for some ape hangars, imo!)

many of us take it to mean no charm--alas it is no chrome.

I think the only HD I would consider is the Electra Glide.

I prefer the Hydraglide myself, don't trust that fancy fangdangled stuff.
