A buddy of mine was browsing the Specialized web page, looking for a good city bike. In their menu of product lines, right under 'Fitness/Commute', he found what you see above. The Specialized Fat Boy. $2800 of pure kick stand, banana seat fury. Apparently, the target market is female body builders who hang out in front of tattoo parlours and unzip their leather jackets to contemplate their rhine-stoned belt buckels. I think that perhaps Specialized in Morgan Hill, CA has picked up a Marketing person from the now defunct Indian Motorcycles in nearby Gilroy, CA. Or, maybe they're just trying to fit in with the current political climate:

Maverick!
That's right. John McCain is a Maverick, and apparently Palin is a Specialized.
...and during the entire debate, I thought she just really liked the DUC32.
Rode an ML8 last weekend. I'll post an article on it soon. Pretty sweet.
