Awesome bike! What is the difference between a Roadliner and a Stratoliner?

What are the spikes on the front axle? Are those purely decorative, or are they a kind of highway peg?

They're functional. They're part of the fender stays. A brace.

His second photo gives you a good look at them.

A Liner or Raider are the ONLY bikes on the road I'd replace my Roadstar with.
Nothing else is even on my radar.

Those are some great looking stock seats....wouldn't change those out for anything!

Better be sporting some kick-ass seat package when you get it home!
