The stupid graphics increase profits. Everyone wants Vivid Black but HD doesn't make money on it.
That's a good idea for the '18's, do like Ford did with the Model T, "any color you want as long as it is black".
I think a mobile Wi-Fi hot spot will be big option for 2018.

Make a kick butt Sport Bike! That will shame all Metric sport Bikes.

I wish they would bring back an actually competitive version of Buell. I'm not a sport bike rider, just would like to see more American made bikes....not less like Victory.

Or release the Buell name to Eric Buell so he could put his new super bike out under his name, as he should be allowed to do.

I think vivid black will be the only color available.

hd saves money by only offering one color.

There you go, pressurized induction is a mileage and emissions killer. I'm sure CARB will be disappointed.

A new lineup of motorclothes. 10% off the 2017 motorclothes lineup starting in fall 2017 to make way for the 2018 spring fashion line.

As far as bikes? Who knows, probably the M8 in some of the other classes (softail, dyna). Different paint options.

I'd love to see the M8 in a Dyna. It would scream.

I'm a player for an M8 Dyna FXDX at 15K or less. Good suspension, gauges and pegs where they're supposed to be, good brakes (non linked) ABS if it can be defeated with a switch while riding, light cast wheels tubeless tires and a wet weight of 650 lbs all up

No interest what so ever in another black bike. Flat *** boring.
Expanded use of the M8 engine likely.
Dropping any model that is not selling.
23 inch front wheel tires on SG and RG then a kit offered to switch them back to a real tire and wheel.
I have my M8 so should be good for this next round.
