I've never really been interested in crusiers but could see myself giving one of these Bolts a try. Its definitely time to slow down on the street and this looks like a good way to do it. Make mine a matte grey R-Spec and I would black out the silver exhaust shields and silver trim on the battery box.

I know these new bikes are copying Harley's Sportsters but I think Yamaha did a great job and they will sell very well.

Dude..that cruiser is bad ass

However my Bonneville has my heart for street riding.

If I didn't have my Bonneville, I would be getting this bike.

Might not be your style of bike but I have a feeling Yamaha will sell a lot of Bolts. This green one has some accessories added:

Clip-ons, fat front tire, I could make a nice cafe racer out of that.
