Would you change your Rocket for one of these?

Came across this.

Really Like it, bit out of my price range though.

Personally I prefer this picture of the bike, even though it's black.

I see problems if you wanted to ride it for any length of time, especially in Ca. That oil cooler should be as big as a radiator bathing the following cylinders just as a water cooled one would. Why have 4 when 2 will do. Looks cool but not real practical. JM2CW
 
No they might be good to look but I think they would be fairly high maintenance and 4 of them in those plastic pants up here in QLD heat
 
i do like the looks of that red one.
Couldn't see enough of the black one for all those streetwalkers
hanging off of it.
From what I can determine, the inline 4 was a 750cc.
Now I'm NOT a big fan of their v-twin harley clone bikes.
overpriced and underpowered, BUT if they'd make that inline 4 about 2500cc's
and make it a true touring bike, with sixth gear, then I'd be real interested.
 
Kind of primitive looking (need to haul a tool box where ever you go) and air cooled as well. Nah
