Personally, I prefer the Midnight version. The Warrior is the only cruiser I'd buy. Don't get "Harley" pipes. The bazooka is what makes the Warrior a Warrior. Without the bazooka, it's just another Harley-wanna-be.
Midnight:
Just for the record, the sales guy fed you a line. The Warrior doesn't use R-1 forks. It does have inverted forks, like an R-1, but that's all they have in common.
Anyways, nice choice. Like I said, the Warrior's the only cruiser I'd ever buy.
