Nice Panhead!
As far as the "new" Hydraglide, I'd have liked to see them do a few different things with it... Especially for THAT kind of money.
First thing, I'd have liked to see a higher seat mount on it, like the Crossbones or the last "reissue" Electra glide.
I'd also would have liked to have seen them cover that disc brake on the front wheel somehow, to make it look like one of the old drum brake front ends.
A brace across the handlebars would have been cool... White grips to compliment all of the white piping would have been nice, too.
And lastly, a two-into-one or true dual exhaust setup with chrome Flexi bellows would have been killer.
Other than that, it's pretty much just a decently dressed-out Softail... A little too steeply priced, considering that someone could find a low mileage Blockhead and achieve the same look for about 1/4 the price.

Totally agree, but then Harley won't make their money on the guy's like you and me that will buy all the bits to complete it properly
