		Picked up my 2012 Roadliner late in the year and got a sweet deal way under MSRP.  The aluminum frame makes this big bike handle great !  You owe yourself a test ride.  The big engine is a blast, sounds good.  I have the seashell color and with all the chrome and big honking headlight there is nothi<span class="simple_review_box" >...</span><span class="expand_review_box" style="display:none;">ng else out there that looks like it.  Ergos are superior and heel-toe shifts are very smooth.  I looked at some Harleys and Victorys and they are great, but most do not have dual discs up front and the Roadliners brakes are tight.  I had rented a Sportster and Road King and I do like this big Star bike better.  Regardless of how you feel about metrics, this engine has  proved itself since 2006 and is pretty much bulletproof.<br />
At stoplights guys roll down their windows in cold weather asking about it.  One guy asked is that a 750? I just smiled and said 1900.  His eyes got big...       D. In Virginia.</span>
